Default Buick Y Job and General Motors LeSabre.

The Buick Y Job has often been referred to as the very first GM Concept Car. Built in 1938 this was Harley Earls design and was his personal car for many years while he was at GM. I've LeSabre was the car that took over from the Y Job,was produced in 1952 and was also Harley Earls personal car while at GM. I am so greatful General Motors was kind enough the loan the cars for a short time to the Blackhawk Automobile Museum.

Love that era of concepts. Should be rated by chrome per sq ft.


Thanks for the share
