Snapped pics of this 1950 Buick at a car show back in the '90's.  That big "toothy" grill has always been popular with me.  Makes me believe the car could just growl its way through any traffic jam.

I too have always liked the 50 Buick with its toothy grill.

Bob;  I used to really dislike it but in the past few years, seeing it and discussing it a fair number of times, I have really warmed up to the "overbite Buick'.

Very early '60's I had a friend that had 3 early '50's Buicks and I thought the bumper was going to hit the ground when turning briskly.  The straight 8 might have been powerful buy it was slow and sounded like a vacuum cleaner under full acceleration for all three, left a lingering bad taste for the Buick.  Probably the main reason I dislike Buick so much.
