DESCRIPTION It's a bit rough, it's been repainted and the wide whites are not factory. Originally, this was a police car but the bubble is gone. Husky was the marketing name used by Corgi for their junior series, replaced by Corgi Juniors in the late '60's. This is one of the few small-scale Buicks ever done (my collection includes only 12 Buicks). Ut is to my knowledge, the only 1959 Buick ever done in this scale. This example is no prize but it will do until a better one comes along.
