Nothing to do with Buick I'm afraid.

Definitely not - there's nothing English about this car.

But jimjarron, in your article the car is never called Francone Vista? It is however called Santin-Francone in the text. So where did you get the Francone Vista name from, I wonder?
It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

From here I guess. And I believe that jimjarron and faksta speak spanish as bad as I do, and that "Vista 3/4 trasera" mean "rear 3/4 view".

@ Otto: Sorry once again! Jim Jarron also provided the link, so?

This particular car is mentioned differently in various sources. Jim Jarron's source has it as Francone Vista (maybe  ???) and the source I have provided has it as Francone Vista. I am not sure which name is really correct..

Anyway, I guess Arunas has scored his point  ;)
I've taken the same picture, but without any inscripts like on Ray's one. It was called 'Francone Vista' in a text, as far as I remember.

Righy; And if one read repiles 13 and 14, it's obvious that the topic should be corrected and renamed "Francone-Santin"
