It’s Thanksgiving, and I am too full, lazy and sleepy to look up the winner of the last clue. You know who you are, anyhow. Edit – All right, all right. Don Williamson certainly knows his 52 Buicks, and is to be commended. Although he called a Roadmaster, I don’t think that the pieces on the Super were any different.
Now, assuming that more than three or four of you are staring at a computer instead of eating turkey, we have a clue for you to chew on. Good luck!
1957 Studebaker Hawk.
Agreed, but I’ll expand to say “a” Studebaker Hawk from 1957-1961 which would cover, depending on the year, Golden Hawk, Silver Hawk, and for ’61, simply Hawk.

Wild guess, 1955 Pontiac. Now I’m off to google to see if I was close.
Hey, thanks for the compliment. Funny how the mind works, when I saw that little Buick finlet clue, it immediately rang a bell. The parents of a little girl who was in my elementary school class had that Buick, whether a Roadmaster or Super I can’t remember, but I believe the Special did not carry it. Her father was an engineer at the Douglas Aircraft facility in Santa Monica in the early fifties. I recall going over to play at her house after school, and my mother and her mother would visit. Being the early age car nut, I was always out in their driveway checking out that car. There were so many Buicks around in those days, and I quickly mastered the differences from year to year. The little finlet made its only appearance on the ’52’s, before the ’53’s gained the taller rear quarter panels with the separately paired taillights. Fun memories.
