A '56 Beauty

They sure don't make cars like this anymore. There was a vintage car afternoon at the Veterans Centre at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre last week and this beauty was one of them. It is a 1956 Buick Special Riviera. Fabulous isn't it?

    Those were big, heavy but great fun cars. I had a 1957 Olds hardtop which was a delight - all chrome and leather. Beautiful photo, Pat.

    That was a very classy car back in 1956, and still is today. Great photo.

    In 1956 it probably sold for $1,500 or less.

    Wonderful! Beautiful!
    1956 was a good year. I started first grade, adored my teacher, and found my first boyfriend (at 5 years old!).

    I wonder how many coats of fiery red paint that car has. It is a winner, RedPat.
