Buick Fastback
Some time in the 60's, a neighbor had a Buick Lesabre fastback 2 door. Am I dreaming ???, or was there a model in the 60's. Comments ??

Rand 1967 had a hardtop LeSabre fastback. It looked very similar to the Wildcat.

This one (1967?) looks almost like a fastback and might be so classified. I'm not sure.
Happy hunting!
67 Buick
That's it !!! Was a metallic blue with a vinyl top. Very different car for that year.
That red one is gorgeous! Is it a '49 or a '48?

It's a 1948. Sorry for my error. Here are two more pictures to be sure.

The 1949 Buick body was all new, the first one since before World War II.
Just don't care for the full-size fastback design.
Much prefer the '48; especially the tail end.
First one is a '66, second one is a '67. The ' 67 and '68 full size Buicks had the nicest designs of the decade, including the '69 Riviera.
Yes, the first one is a '66, second one is a '67. '65 through '68 could be considered fastbacks.
