TG57Roadmaster Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 57wagon wins the kewpie doll! I couldn't resist, only 'cause when I saw one at Charlotte AutoFair last Spring, I thought, "Now there's a <span style="font-style: italic">sexy</span> Buick", only to learn that instead of a Tri-Shield, it had a Trident. I was hoping it was the new Lucerne!I promise I won't cheat again! <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TG57Roadmaster Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 JohnD,You know, wags back in the day decried, "Suddenly, It's 1949!" at first sight of the 3-piece GM B Body's backlight (shared by 40 & 60 Series, and <span style="font-style: italic">all</span> Olds models) treatment.It was a direct slam at the designers, 'cause all '57 Mopars had a light, refreshing look to them, and their slogan was, "Suddenly, It's 1960!"TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm not surprised about that. The way I figure it, that three piece window is just... cool... and leave it to Buick to put it on a body with classic written all over it. But I am biased. The 2nd car I had ever bought with my own money was a 57 Special convertible. Bought in 1972 for $30.00, with 55K on the clock, and I don't mean 155K. Needed a top, seats, and exhaust system. Ran like a dream and looked great once polished. Stupid me, I listened to my Dad who bribed me to sell the car in consideration of temporary custodianship of a 69 Cutlass Convertible. Dad was sort of a control freak and kept control of the Cutlass by registering it in his own name. In his defense I had 5 other brothers and sisters and he had to do something to control the insurance costs. But I sold that Buick for $100. The biggest mistake I think I ever made!!! 2 years later I got my first 56, a Roadmaster, and it's been Buick most of the way since then.

Guest imported_MrEarl Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Name the Buick(s) this came off of. approx overall 4 x 2 1/2 glass 2 1/2 diameter. BTW JohnD can you resize your 57 photo so it doesn't cause the text to go off the screen. Since last time I checked the Buick resizer was not available, here's a neat little quickie resizer site. resize2mail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
