Although the model name continued to 1999, the examples built through 1965 remain a high-water mark in stateside automotive style.

Buick built some cool stuff throughout the years. Those big v8's and front wheel drive was on another level. I had the 1978 Cadillac version with the stainless roof and it just floated along.

Yeah, Designers, somewhere along the line started drawing inspiration from the nautical world and started integrating those design aspects into cars. I think it works really well too!
