1954 Buick Nailhead










1954 Buicks are fast becoming iconic in popular culture photographs. This one is an original, from Tennessee, and in the hands of the present owner from about 2000. Note the Buick "Nailhead" engine with the unusual location of its value covers. This car also had a Dynaflow transmission.


See https://macsmotorcitygarage.com/secrets-of-the-buick-nailhead-v8/ for a great technical discussion of the Nailhead engine, a design that in one form or another lasted to 1981.
