My friend shared this and I had to make sure you saw it too. Another one of those classic beauties we love.

1949 Norman E. Timbs Buick Streamliner

Curves like these inspire poetry. The 1948 Buick Streamliner by Norman E. Timbs is a muse in the world of classic cars, an automobile from a time when curvy was most desirable... Looking at a car like this makes one lament the slim, simple direction human attraction has gone. This classic Buick Streamliner is in pristine condition, restored by Dave Crouse for the 2010 Concours d’Elegance. Its original construction took over two years, built with an aluminum body around a steel chassis. Not only is it unlikely you’ll ever see this beauty on the road, it’s likely that you’ll never see it on the auction block. A car like this is far too rare, too beautiful that any owner could ever want to pass it up– no matter the price!

Who else is dying for a ride!? #Buick #Vintage-Cars

  1. That's an amazing car from 1949 !  It's so funny, that I have never even seen some of the old cars that people post on here , in my lifetime or in photos. Great share Margaret ! :-)

  2. They look like a vehicle from an old science-fiction movie. :-)

  3. My friend from The Gryphon's Nest's just told me that this car is in a private collection and not many folks get a look at it.  I may comment too much, but hopefully this will make up for that.
