    That car, and the 1953 Daddy to that car, are the epitome of everything after. The best.

    I loved the designers at Buick and Pontiac. They were so ahead of their time. My first job was as a Porter at the Holiday Inn on Bristol Road in Flint in 1968.

    What a gorgeous car! Buick should have made some version of that car. I'm not sure that the open fenders or the floating headlights would have made it to production, but some refined version of that car should have made it to production. It's really a shame that it didn't.

    Thanks, Lou. I had seen other Buick concept cars, but not that one. It's the sportiest, and maybe the most beautiful, they ever built.

    What a beautiful car ! Buick should have produced them . The '53 was a little more aggressive looking in the grill and bumper area and should have been produced also. However, the Corvette made it's debut and would have taken away from it's sales ! I think Buick should make them now with upgraded suspensions and extend the interiors about 6 inches to accommodate taller drivers .
    Mustangs and Camaros came back after a hiatus and were successful . GO FOR IT ! 🚘

    Wow.
    Lou gets another great find.
    GM. Knew if Buick produced it.
    The vette would not have a success story.
    Now where is the .
    Pontiac Vette concept? THAT May have been called Banchi.

    • @loucostabile
      @loucostabile  4 роки тому +2

      Hi Rick Believes, Happy to read you like the car. The camera is ok, however back when this was videoed UA-cam would ask when uploading a video "Would you like to stabilize the video?" DO NOT click the "Yes" button. Lesson wasn't learned quickly, however I finally figured it out. Hope you see MANY cars on this UA-cam Channel you enjoy, Lou
