A bunch of Buicks from my archives. Enjoy!
1910 Buick Bug (no idea of the actual name). This is a pretty rare model made by ABC Brianza quite a few years ago. If I remember correctly, it's a white metal model.

I have this recorded as an unknown model. It's resin, and definitely not based on a Solido.

Albert, what a tremendous collection of Buicks....
I was glad to see a couple of Victory models in there.
I may have a third of yours, but you have covered all of the bases. Nice job photographing all of them.
