This split rear window Buick design was from early 1961, as part of a 2 door, four places sporty coupe project by Howard Miereanu.
"This was the second design I came up with," Howard told us. "I kept the front fender port holes and revised my first car's design for the split window. We all tried many different concepts to give the car a faster look. I always loved a fastback, and the split window was a perfect match. Also, the belt line continued from the front and around the sides of the car and disappeared just behind the rear fender well. The window treatment started about 18 inches ahead of the front window as a low fin which continued on the door and the rise to the back window to house the recessed door handle. I always loved this design, and it was well received along with any number of designs submitted by the design group."
Howard has been kind enough to share some of his old designs with Kustomrama, so click here to see some more of his work: https://kustomrama.com/wiki/The_Howard_Miereanu_Collection
