Buick is currently Americas oldest automotive brand, Established by Scots born David Dunbar Buick as the Buick Motor Company in Detroit 1903. Later that year the company was taken over by James h Whiting who moved it to his hometown of Flint Michigan and brought in William C Durant as his manager. The first Buick made for sale came in 1904
Durant was a natural promoter and Buick soon became America leading car producer. With the profits Durant embarked on a series of amalgamations leading to the General Motors conglomerate.
