Lamley Profile of the Buick Police...

The Lamley profile on a clear favorite for Official Unofficial Model of the Year. Any other favorites outside of this and the Seagrave? Still waiting to see the Explorer.

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
Thanks for the pics! Looks a little squished to my eyes though.

Same reason I couldn't vote for the Oldsmobile in 2009. Great subject matter but the execution left too much to be desired. The model of the year should be perfect, and the Vista Cruiser (and this Buick) isn't. By that reasoning, my vote for this year goes to the Seagrave. :thumbup:

I'm definitely going to have to get this model for sure. I do wish they had painted the lights though.

Still nice to see a mid 50s Buick in small scale that has not been chopped, lowered and overly customizied.

Support your local demo derby.

Appreciate a Buick from the 50s so it's a buy. Does look proportionally a bit short.

I picked up the Buick today. Better than I thought it would be. A little too short and one port short I think.

I know kids that love fire trucks and police cars, and they actually like some of the old-time emergency vehicles.
