Can you tell what year it is by looking at this photo?
It’s not easy to guess, is it?
While stuck in traffic on Collins Ave in Miami/South Beach, FL., I noticed this Buick parked in front of an art deco building that was partially the same color as the car. I grabbed my camera and got the shot just as traffic started to move again. Don’t worry….I was the passenger!

HI Caren,
Beautiful shot, Beautiful car. The “heavies” weren’t the popular car with us as kids, we all drove Fords and Chevys, My best guess would be ‘56 or ’57, in ’58 they squared up the body and loaded them up with chrome, ’59 started the big tail fins.
I’m sure some will pin it down for you.
Bob
