(2) The rear roofline and C-pillar do not curve forward like the Special and Century, but rearward like the Super and Roadmaster. (3) There is no chrome trim between the rear wheel opening and the rear bumper, so I say Super. -- Last edit: 2008-01-12 07:24:52

blendi81 ◊ 2025-12-10 16:02	I agree with 58Roadmaster's points especially about the C-pillar. I'd add one more point, there's a name on the left side unlike a Roadmaster model. So it's a Super all right As for a pic from Night Cub - there are 2 Buicks in the scene. As a Buick we're talking about leaves the scene the camera turns left and shows us а second Buick with three portholes. So the pic from Night Cub has nothing to do with the main one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDyaKdLAhM4&t=2833s -- Last edit: 2025-12-10 20:01:10
