From surveying the automotive landscape circa 1986 " especially concerning GM's product lines " it would seem that every automobile faced the same inevitability of downsizing and switching to front-wheel drive. Real bumpers, full frames and V-8 engines were going the way of the dodo. There were exceptions, however, and this full-size 1986 Buick Electra Estate Wagon was one of them. With a wheelbase of 115.9 inches and an overall length of 221.3 inches, the latter was a whopping two feet longer than the newly downsized Le Sabre and Electra sedans.
Arguably, the Buick Electra Estate Wagon was the most luxurious station wagons ever produced. This exceptionally well preserved and highly original Buick has only traveled 56,419 miles from new and has always been pampered. Finished elegantly in Yellow Beige, the color harmonizes with the handsome wood-grain side panels perfectly and remains in remarkably good condition. The factory optional wire wheel covers and whitewall tires enhance this wagon's stately persona.
