‘Roy Repp was an Australian stunt driver. One of his stunt cars was ‘Maude the Motor Mule’. For this car, he would pull a lever and a heavy weight beneath the car moved forward or backward to shift the center of gravity and made the car rear up on its hind wheels or front wheels.’

This is fantastic, look like the Buick logo might have come loose on the radiator there.
Hi James,
I was curious after reading your comment so I did a quick search of “antique buick logos” on google images and discovered that the logo was actually on a slant. Looks like it was mounted at a 45 degree angle.

Thanks for the reference. However, I think James is correct. See how it hangs below the radiator, most noticeably in the second picture. It’s at a much greater angle than in your example.
