Wow, when looking at this car in person one notices the chrome, but dismisses it as a sign of the times. But, up close and personal watching this video the sense of just how much chrome is hung on this car is incredible.
I wonder what the cost would be to rechromed this behmoth.

@kocour I agree, when looking at photographs in a book or on-line it's easy to dismiss an item like this as being too excessive, but in reality one is one overcome by the sheer power of it all.
(Mind you, I don't think the guy who shot the video is going to Hollywood any time soon).

Hate the car, dislike the music, love the color though.

Jack, I agree with you completely.

Probably cheaper to buy another one!

From the glittery Fashion-Aire Dynastar grill, to the "Flight Pitch Dynaflow" transmission and to the massive rear bumper housing the "Dual Jet" reverse lights, the fabulously chromed Air Born B-58 Buick is one of my all-time faves of the fifties, especially in Limited trim. Btw, I subscribe to that "Young Exotics" YouTube channel. They clearly have a penchant for 1950s Buicks and are currently restoring a white 1953 Skylark. Their preference for Buicks is understandable. After all, wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?

@al_dorado I sure would Al....especially if it was a '55 Special 2drht; my fave Buick.

In general I am no fan of the '58s from GM. If I had to choose one, it would be the Buick Limited since relatively few were made.
