archi87 ◊ 2006-08-27 21:18	I definitively agree with the idea it's a 1957 Buick, but sorry, I believe the picture is too out of focus to say if the car is a Roadmaster, a Century, a Super or a Special. All 1957 Buicks were too similar to tell. Could be a Roadmaster, but… I would look at the movie to find if I see more of it. -- Last edit: 2006-08-27 21:23:54
archi87 ◊ 2006-08-27 21:45	Bon… I've looked again at this Taxi scene in the movie. I'm not sure, but I believe, as the car parked before the Buick appears to be a 1951 Chevrolet, that this white Buick is seen another time. If so, I think it's a Century 2-door Riviera. -- Last edit: 2006-08-27 22:56:09
