The 1955-56 Buicks were beautiful, and so are the many gorgeous ads produced for the company in those years by the renowned illustration team of
Art Fitzpatrick and Van Kaufman - a sampling of which you see above.
When I was a kid, my mom had a blue '55 Buick - it was a good car. Here's a video compilation of more Buicks from the late 1940;s down to 1958. Love those portholes (which actually delivered air to the operable side vents under the dashboard) and the elegant side swoop, which was a Buick feature on some models down to the early 1970's.
And just for fun, let's go back to the future in this 1956 General Motors promotional film, and find out what kind of automated highways we'll be able to travel in the scintillating, high-tech year of 1976!
