Buick Y Job


Not all concept cars that were great were made in recent times. Back in 1938 Buick wowed everyone with the Y Job. Sure, it’s a weird and potentially dirty name, but the car introduced some important design elements that made their way to production models. Among them were hidden headlights, the absence of useless running boards and integrated fenders for a more modern look.

The car still looks great today and people still wonder why Buick didn’t release it to the public.
