Starting in 1946, The iconic grill design of that period Buick began with huge vertical teeth in a maw that looked aggressive and somewhat scary. Variants of this grill continued through 1954. In 1949, styling cues for the series were complete with addition of the iconic "portholes". Danbury Mint did a fine job of replicating these '47-'54 Roadmasters with their different body styles
