George Sinamark's 1947 Buick
1947 Buick restyled by Barris Kustoms for George Sinamark of Pasadena, California. Barris chopped the windshield and Gaylord's Kustom Shop fabricated and installed a padded top. The car was nosed and decked. The door and trunk handles were shaved and the headlights were frenched. The parking lights and embles were removed. 1949 Cadillac rear quarter panels were spliced and molded to the body. The stock grille was reshaped in able to accept the 1949 Cadillac grille. To push the Cadillac appearance even further, Barris installed 1949 Cadillac bumpers with exhaust outlets to the car. Once the body was complete, the Buick was painted Charcoal light metallic and copper.[2]
