A ridiculous styling fad that Buick introduced about 1950 - '52 still hangs on.  Buick started putting "port 
holes" (fake exhaust ports) on the upper sides of front fenders about '50 -'52 to simulate exhaust pipes/ports on 
sides of '20's Cord, Duisenberg, etc., hoods.  The more expensive/bigger Buicks had four "ports;" smaller models 
had three ports.  After marketers picked up on it and sold even fakier attachment "ports" that vehicle owners 
could add to their fenders on Fords, Chevies, Plymouths, or whatever.  Well, guess what I saw this afternoon - a fairly 
new Buick with, you guessed it - fake exhaust ports on sides of front fenders.  They've been streamlined a bit since the 
early '50's, but they're still there - "must-have" items, especially for a Buick owner, I guess.  Otherwise, how 
can one tell it's a Buick?   ;<)))))
