I would love to come across one of these cars because I have a major passion toward renovating these classic cars. I went shopping for a Buick at Buick Grand Rapids and sparked a conversation with one of the salesman there. He told me that a lot of the creative innovation that is put into these cars is partly generated from the older models. Usually it is a "How can we make this better" question, but it inspires a lot of innovation and creativity for some of the newer models. I found this very interesting and very complimentary to your blog. Thank you for sharing!
