Shipped in september 2006 from California to The Netherlands. It has a 455/5 Buick engine. A true survivor...only needs a repaint, due to the CA sun.

After changing the sealed beam headlamps the Behemoth was ready for inspection by RDW (Dutch equivalent for DMV)Without any trouble the old license plates changed for new ones;

Will add a few "wannahaves" to the Wagon:
Stainless ventshades (see first photo), a bug guard,
a convienience center (mini console; made the gauges in it myself)

Hey really brings back memories. I had a 1970 Buick Estate Wagon. It had the late great 455CI. We would flip the air filter cover over and make more noise. That car had so much HP and Torque there wasnt a whole lot of cars that could give that big wagon a good run!!!! Keep it up guys.... 5 stars
