Hey, 58limited--you no doubt noticed the '58 Limited convertible in the Buick shots!

BTW, I saw a cool solid white 1958 Pontiac Chieftain 2-door Catalina (hardtop coupe) this morning in Granite City, Illinois...looked like it came from the GM commercial! (Gave the guy who drove it--whom I know personally--a big thumbs-up as I drove past as he parked it at his car restoration shop.)

BTW, I have read the '59 GM line was going to be a rehash of the '58 models, but some people saw early-production models of the new '57 Chrysler products and convinced Harley Earl to comeup with all-new '59's ("all new all over again," to quote a Chevy commercial!)...
