This could change on any given day, since there are so many that I greatly admire. These are among my favorites:

1965 Wildcat 2-door hardtop

1938 Roadmaster 4-door convertible

1954 Skylark

Still, I love the '59's and the '61's, and how could I resist a 1941 Limited Brunn Custom?

Favorites? That's easy!

1) 1968 Wildcat Custom Convertible

2) 1968 Wildcat Custom Coupe (a very close second!)

3) 1968 Wildcat Custom 4 dr. Hardtop (the only one I have so far)

Anybody know where I can find nice examples of the first two? smile.gif David

any '50 buick is cool (even the 4 doors)

I like wings, so the '59 and '60 are the winners there.

'52 super 2drs make KILLER hot rods, with a 401/TH400 or a 4 speed, bags and flamethrowers. (Black primer and flames of course)

Hands down, my first car, passed down to me from my father, a 1955 Buick Century Riviera 2 door HT... although a '55 Century Riviera Convertable would be nice!

AW Geez! I can only pick THREE? OK here goes.

laugh.gif 67/67 Riviera the very definition of visually sleek lines

wink.gif 72 Riviera

cool.gif 68, any model, but especially so the convertables.

Close runners up in my mind would be the '40's fasback coupes,

70 - 72 Skylark coupes & convertables, and '66 big Buicks.

My first car BTW, was a red & black 72 Skylark thin pillar coupe.

In no particular order...

1951-52 Roadmaster (three uncles had them at the same time- my dad was the rebel with the 1953 Ninety Eight)

all 1961-64 big cars

1959 LeSabre/Invicta flat-top- a more dramatic car ooo.gif , GM never produced. Looked like it was ready to launch for the stratosphere and points beyond...
