This 1938 Buick Special Roadster was an unusual image choice for Signature and for a low end diecast, they did a pretty nice job. The script on the valve cover, however, should have been spell checked. Oh yeah, the "Special" badging is spelled "SPECIUL".

Great pictures Rich. I have the model in black and have always thought it was "Special"

I really dig '37-'38 Buicks and wanted to like this model when it first came out, but there's something about the stance and the wheels that I just couldn't get past.

Beautiful photos. I considered this a couple of times, but never got one.

When I look at this model a see a 1938 Buick which is good enough for me.

Now that is a SPECIAL Buick.  Love the styling, and in white it explodes.  Great pics!
