FIN-TASTIC! The '57 Buick Roadmaster's fins had a "zooming forward" look. This was a car of elegance. The roof-line was unique only to the elite Buick this year.

Wow! Beautiful...
... I was 5 years old in '57 and just becoming fascinated with cars. My folks always had Buicks but never one this beautiful.

N-O-W... you're COOKING WITH GAS!!! I keep watching ebay for a 1:24 dealer-promo that...
... I might be happy with - haven't seen 'her' yet. Most of them are pretty rough; but, in fairmenss it's been 60+ years.
Geez.... maybe someday we'll see a decent 1:24 '57 Roadmaster.

Almost impossible to find one without lots of WARP.
P.S. promos were 1:25th scale.
