    This brings me back to the mid 80's mama 🐻 and I would take our 4 children on vacations, off to school or maybe out for ice cream. Ours was a 1984 Pontiac Parisian wagon same color and wood grain detail. Papa 🐻, mama 🐻 and 4 little 🐻S

    Even with the cosmetic issues, this is a STEAL. To those who may say otherwise, go price wagons for a while, and you'll come to the same conclusion. Good job Anthony for keeping this gem out of the junkyard!

    My Dad had this exact model & exterior color; I’m not sure about the interior. He bought it brand new in 1992. It had been a Shuttle Car for the 1990 Buick Open. It sat at the Dealership after being refinished at the factory so it could be sold as new. But there was a change in the law in MI that year which forced GM to List and sell them as Used. It had about 4,000 miles on it when my Dad bought it in like Jan. or Feb. of ‘92. He didn’t have it very long though. He had to take to the ditch to avoid hitting a dog and Ins. totaled it after discovering the frame was bent downward flexing the entire body and jamming the doors on the passenger side of the vehicle. It had about 8K on it then. You couldn’t tell there was any flexing or bending to look at it. Only when you went to open the rear door, passenger side and it would stick.
    Our local frame shop was sure they could fix it but GM wanted the car destroyed so they wouldn’t have to ever worry about any lawsuit. My Dad loved that car. But he had an ‘83 Pk. Ave. that he also bought new, an ‘87 Ford F350 Motorhome and an ‘89 F150 w/Club Cab that he also bought new. So he didn’t really need it.

    We never had wagons with a 3rd row. 1) they were never comfortable and 2) you got a lot of useful underfloor storage. Of course back in the day, kids just jumped over the second seat to play in the cargo area - and we all survived somehow.

Have put a lot of love into mine with much more to go. Looking forward to a season full of Cars and Coffee weekends around here! Regards to you and Papa Bear.

Anthony, don't forget me out in Oregon for Cadillac wagons, old El Dorad's, classic 60'-70's Cadillacs, Lincoln's, Chryslers, Dodge's, Plymouth's, etc, etc. But I need a Papa bear deal and would live to tell you what a loving heart that others will praise how you have such a huge heart for not only the car but also love for people who are deserving one, would have new customers who say you have a big heart for these artwork cars and took the loving care to find the car's forever human family home, now and in the future, God Bless you Anthony.

I also have the third row seat delete and the wire wheel covers. I was curious about the black carpet in ours and assumed it was aftermarket but I guess not. BTW, I found the RPO build code sticker in the spare tire well, there was an option to delete the rear seat.

    This car could have been ordered as a removal wagon by a Funeral Home, thus no third seats. Years ago we ran Mercury wagons for removals. Now we run Dodge Minivans. The wagons were great to drive but the vans are a heck of a lot more practical. Love your older Lincolns & Cadillacs.

  • @AlexanderCrump
    @AlexanderCrump Год назад

    Buick used to sell this model in two trim lines - the LeSabre (and LeSabre Estate) Wagon and the Electra Estate Wagon. They were dimensionally and mechanically identical (though the LeSabre and Electra sedans had different wheelbases). The LeSabre used the front fascia and grille from the LeSabre sedan which was less fancy than that of the Electra sedan and wagon. There were trim differences, too, like seat fabrics, door panels, and option availability like passenger power seat, etc. I think the Electra had extra brushed chrome trim on the B and C panels.
    I'd have to check my Buick catalogs but I think they made them all Estate Wagons around 1988, dropping the LeSabre from the wagon lineup.
    This is a nice one here with cornering lamps and front fender lamp monitors (what is left of the driver side monitor). Those front monitors were only available on the Buick and Oldsmobile versions of these sedans and wagons. Chevy and Pontiac did not offer them. Out of all the B-body wagons from this era, the Electra was the nicest. It offered upgraded cloth upholstery or leather. I don't think any of the other divisions (Chevy, Olds or Pontiac) offered leather in the wagons. It was rare in the sedans whereas tons of Ford Panthers came with leather.

    The 1990 model they called it the Estate Wagon because they were phasing the name Electra out. For whatever reason they chose to 80-84 Electra header panel only and they had the 80-84 Electra Limited seats only and put LeSabre Custom door panels in the interior even with leather and full dual 6 way with power recliners. Some didn’t have the third row. Some caprice and Parisienne didn’t even have carpet in the rear area period.

      First of all, it’s “you’re” or “you are”. It’s not rough if you have ever looked at a vehicle 30+ years old anywhere in the New England or salt belt. Why would Anthony put more time/ money in a car that isn’t worth much more than $6k 🤷‍♂️ This isn’t a 1970 Dodge Charger

      Probably some buyers would like to do the work themselves and save some money. Enjoy using it while restoring it as time and finances permit. This Buick is definitely worth the effort.

    Anthony I was just wondering if you ever come across any Oldsmobile 98 regency bromgh s? My parents bought me a brand new 1986 when I got my license. It was one of my favorite cars. And there where many. Thanks
