John in Texas emailed this photo over, wondering if anyone could pinpoint the year and model exactly???

---------------------------------------

Attached are photos of what I believe to be either a 1930 or 1931 Buick
Sport Coupe, but I don't know how to tell the difference in a photograph
between the 1930 - 1931 Buick 4-passenger (with rumble seat) landau sport
coupes, and all their model variants (e.g., Country Club Coupe, Special
Coupe, models 36-S, 46-S, 56-S, 66-S, etc.).

It seems the 1930 and 1931 Buicks had dual bumper rails and the 1929 models
had triple bumper rails, which is why I've settled on thinking this is
either a 1930 or 1931.

Best regards,

John

Another photo from John...



He adds: "I found another photo of the same car (attached), which may help identify its exact year. It will be very interesting to know if there is a way to
tell the difference between the 1930 and 1931 Buicks by looking at their exteriors."
