This 1955 Buick Century appears in two-tone pale yellow and white, registered DB 88 99 from Maryland. It is based on the 2-door coupé or sedan and to date it has joined the range not only as a 1:87 scale non-commercial car but also as deployed by the US Highway Patrol and as a NY Taxi cab.
The refreshing colour scheme this time is supplemented with lots of chrome, whitewall tyres, chrome wheels with white outer wheel trim as well as silver bumpers and headlights. The interior is red with a contrasting black steering wheel. The Buick Century ‘signature’ is reproduced in silver along the sides of the car and across the front of the bonnet.
