I wouldn’t let them anywhere near anything I valued or wanted to work. Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure of the setting but it is most likely a Buick / GM sales advertisement promoting the level or style and class the Buick has based on the clothes (think 1958) of the that couple. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
EmTee 1,883 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Very interesting -- I don't think I've ever seen an engine colored starter on any GM before. Ditto the oil filter; I wonder whether the cars were delivered to owners that way... Link to post Share on other sites

Too little of the car showing to tell where it is a 56C or 76C. Even though the 76C came std with the wheel shields, the buyer could get them on the 56C if desired. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
91vert 2,495 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 (edited) I think that is the Mackinac Bridge in the back ground. Looks like two '54s in picture with the back-up lights in different locations. Edited April 6, 2019 by 91vert typo (see edit history) Link to post Share on other sites

For 1954, smaller bodies had reverse lights in the trunk lid, the bigger bodis below the trunk lid. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It is not the bridge that blew apart in the wind storm. The bridge that blew apart was the Tacoma narrows bridge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacoma_Narrows_Bridge_(1940)#Film_of_collapse Here is the video. Link to post Share on other sites
