Back in black
I hit the sack
I’ve been too long, I’m glad to be back

I’ve posted a couple of 1955 Buick Riviera photos before including one painted red and one in teal.
This time, we are back in black with this one on display at the Midwest Dream Car Collection in Manhattan, Kansas. I think the 1955 Riviera is one of the most photogenic cars of its era. I love the way the hexagon pattern in the grille is reflected in the bumper, dagmars, and that big ol’ grille ornament.

In 1955, Buick overtook Plymouth to take third place behind Ford and Chevrolet in the Great American Automotive Sales Race.
Looking at this fine specimen, it's easy to understand why the '55 Buick so appealed to the car-buying public that year. It's one of the quintessential American cars from this era; chrome, style and V-8 power. It rolled all of the best traits of the hot new '55 V-8 Chevrolet and the classy, expensive Cadillac into an affordable and attractive package.
And they just happen to look great in formal black...
