    I was finally able to acquire a 1950 Buick Super Convertible and above the trunk key trim it has what looks to be a dealer placard or tag that says (in faded shadows) "HARLEY BUICK DETROIT"

    Of course when I type that into the google machine all I get is today's buick and Harley dealers in Detroit area, so thought I'd reach out here and see if anyone has ever seen these or heard of that dealership. It appears to be original and correct to the car.

    Thanks in advance

    ^^^^^^There is a Principle (the name of which I have momentarily forgotten) that says, in effect, 'the most obvious answer is usually the correct one'.........
