1956 Buick Century Estate Wagon
This rarely seen 1956 Buick Century Estate Wagon combines distinctive 1950s styling with upgraded modern drivability. Finished in an outstanding three-tone combination of Tahiti Coral, Dover White and black, the wagon displays Buick’s sweeping side trim, four signature VentiPorts, extensive chrome brightwork and imposing front bumper treatment.
Power is supplied by an upgraded 455ci Buick V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Driver-friendly equipment includes power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes and air conditioning.
The beautifully finished interior features coordinated coral, white and black upholstery, front and rear bench seats, a folding rear seat and a spacious carpeted cargo compartment. Additional details include the factory-style dashboard, horizontal speedometer, original steering wheel and a concealed full-size spare. The odometer displays approximately 34,915 miles, though actual mileage is unknown.
Wide-whitewall radial tires mounted on painted steel wheels with Buick wheel covers complete its period-correct appearance. This handsome Century offers the style and versatility of a collectible 1950s station wagon with the power, braking and comfort upgrades desired for highway cruising.
