"A post-war marvel, combining bold design, smooth power, and luxurious comfort, embodying the optimism and innovation of a new era on the road."

The Buick was a very rare car, known to be a favorite among wealthy Americans for its comfort and drive quality. I acquired one from somewhere in Bangalore and began the restoration. Initially, we chose a different color, but when it went to Mysore, a mechanic suggested painting it white and blue. I gladly agreed, and the colors suited the car beautifully.
