843de,
The combo of script and block letters is a great idea! I do like that :) Do you see the humor behind
Super 8
X.5
??? I think it's funny :)

Yeah I do, but the joke is kinda lost on the "under 40" crowd, some days I feel so old.

Keep up the good work, your progress so far is amazing!

Sportwagon! Buick made a nice expensive Sportwagon in the late 1960s.

It had a see through top. See Buick Sportwagon on Google.

Great looking Buick, beautiful, however I can't tell the year. Perhaps a customized '53, no newer that that. Grill is a '53. Love it and very few cars will give you a better ride.

During my lifetime I owned a 1952 Special, two different '53s a straight eight and a V-8, a '55, and 1965 LeSabre Convertible, and a 1966. Oh did I say I worked at the Buick in Flint, MI for 31 years.
