Here is a mid-late 1940's Buick Concept rendering that is drop dead gorgeous without any modifications at all! But I can't leave things alone.......

so I did several edits, just to see what they look like. 

As found:

49 Buick Concept   PSx (1)

With minor dechroming:

49 Buick Concept   PSx (2)

Removed the (gasp.....!) portholes:

49 Buick Concept   PSx (3)

Removed the 'B' pillar, making it a hardtop:

49 Buick Concept   PSx (4)

Restored the portholes so Jack Dodds didn't have to ask, and Bob Jackman didn't need to threaten serious bodily harm:

49 Buick Concept   PSx (5)

Though there's little I don't like about this car, the sculpted side panels, running from the front fender, through the door and into to rear fender, are simply stunning. Not sure were these renderings came from, but there were several others I also saved. These renderings are some of the best I've ever seen. 

Jack and Bob, please pardon the humor at your expense. I only poke at people I like, trust or respect. 

Comment if you wish, but it's OK to simply..... Enjoy!

I really like this car and I am glad the portholes were returned. I'll go with the leaving the hood ornament, as with the portholes, these are the earmarks of what makes this a Buick. The elimination of the B pillar helps to modernize the car along with the one piece windshield although the car could use defrosters and doors. Thanks for the fun.

@bob-jackman: I've had the defroster re-installed and the hood ornament added. Can't do anything about the doors, other than those it has.

Enjoy, Bob.

Unlike my good friend, Bob, my favorite portholes are on a cruise ship. I'll eagerly take the car in pic #4. The grille indicates who made the car to a devout car fan. That car is just as you say it is Terry - drop dead gorgeous!!

Unlike my good friend, Tony, I had no idea that there were restrictions on the number earmarks allowed in identifying a car's brand. Guys my age need several reminders.

I would take that beauty in any of those guises and be pretty darn happy. I'd love it if there were a rear shot.🤑😁
