We were walking over to get some coffee when this beauty drove in. I say to the driver, you drove so fast the gas cap flew off. He had called his son to get him one before I came back to take pictures.

I love the Buick. People seem to be offended when I ask them how they like their station wagon. They replay "it's not a station wagon it's an SUV. I try to tell them that a rose by any other name.... oh well Madison Avenue has them all convinced that they aren't driving their father's car.

Old car collectors would be offended if you called their station wagon a SUV.
There has to be a point in History when the car companies stopped advertising station wagons and went to Suvs

Yup owned a 1981 model with Slect Tract. You had to totaly stop to place it in Slect Track drive for the First couple of years.
A pin locked the ST shift lever from being engaged.


8000 cars at a show, I would avoid like the Plague. Best I do is around 500 cars.

2019 is supposed to be even bigger as they are adding a extra block or 2 of parking.
