What a magnificent Buick. This is not just an Estate Wagon. This model was the most expensive station wagon offered as an RPO, an Estate Wagon Limited. It has 4 ventiports on the hood. The regular Estate Wagon trim was based on LeSabre. The interior of this is similar to that of the Electra 225. You certainly scored big on this one.
Well,you picked the best Station Wagon there is. The best styled,best riding,most plush & luxurious, & the Awesome 455-4 torque monster engine with the turbo 400 trans. No better Station Wagon!!!
Congrats on your wagon, looks almost exactly like my mom’s ‘74 Estate, so many great memories. I am happy for you. Drive it like your mother would and always wear your seat belt. I remember the shoulder strap was useless. 😅
I absolutely love your car and she is mint!! Largest wagons ever made. The heaviest is actually the 74 Buick Estate wagon, 9 passenger!! My Next door neighbor (and our friends) had the same exact 73 for years. It was cream yellow with wood and all the trim and options that you have including the Buick sport rims but it had a brown vinyl roof that matched the woodgrain and interior. Nice!! The only thing is, they must have forgotten to order the cornering lamps. I remember because our fully loaded 76 Pontiac Grand Safari did have them. Ours was cream yellow with the wood also and the Pontiac Rally II rims. I took my test on that car in 1977 and drove it to college 35 minutes from my house every day for 4 years. Ours was garaged and kept mint for 30 years. Never should have sold it. Today I'm the proud owner of a maroon with wood.. beautiful 76 Caprice Estate. 3 seat power gate. Roof rack and nicely optioned but not completely loaded. My pride and joy so I know how you feel!!!! Only comes out in nice weather. Mine has a rebuilt motor with about 6 thousand miles on it and practical everything new or rebuilt under the hood. Ice cold air!! Still has the original air shocks. Your vid made me happy. Enjoy this awesome Beauti - Brother!!!!
@@kevinlynch1227 Thank you and thanks for sharing your memories and experiences. If you look at my channel, you will notice I own 4 other 76 Buicks. 2 Electra Limiteds, 1 Electra Limited Park Avenue and Finally a pristine all original 76 Estate Wagon. Cheers!
@@stangslayerws6 Ohhh!! and Oops!! I didn't realize you are the same guy!!! I'll look at your channel in more detail but sorry if my comment was somewhat repetitive to my comment of your 76 Estate wagon video.. I'm a retired early electrical contractor and I love all these cars but I only have the 76 caprice estate. Must be nice to have all the cars you do. Kind of like driving In heaven!! Lol. Enjoy them in good health Brother!!!
I had a maroon '73 Buick Estate Wagon many years ago when it was cheap to buy. Liked the styling front and back. The rear glass went up into the roof, and the tailgate dropped down and disappeared. It had a 455 cubic inch engine, and got 10 mpg. It rode like a boat. Wish I still had it !
My Dad had the 72 in Seamist Green w/wood paneling loaded and my Uncle had the 73 in White w/ wood paneling tape loaded. Can’t beat the styling!!! Love that blue.
@@btinsley1 I have plans for a in depth review of the car including the interior. This was simply my first look of the car and I was out of daylight to show the interior with good lighting. Nonetheless, the interior looks just as pristine as the exterior
How did the car end up in Norway to begin with? Glad it finally made it’s way back home to the USA……..🇺🇸 My collection is all Ford, but my folks had a ‘73 Buick LeSabre that I absolutely LOVED as a kid! If I ever find a beautiful example for sale, there’s going to be a big old Buick in the middle of all my FoMoCo babies……..😂
@@ddellwo I was familiar with the car when it was originally in America because it was the featured centerfold car in the November 2007 Edition of "Collectible Automobile" Magazine. That is where the previous owner from Norway found the car. I already had that magazine as part of my literature portfolio because of my other 4 1976 Buicks. The owner in Norway was super shocked that I was familiar with his car. Fast forward another 9 months and she is safe and sound back in the states now

Absolutely gorgeous. Best of luck with her.
Just absolutely beautiful, Love Buick’s

The estate wagon was based on the electra
@@cadillacnanyes and as such it came fully equipped
Had 72, I miss her so much
That's as big as an apartment, lol. I'm so happy you've found your unicorn.
CONGRATULATIONS BROTHER!
STUNNING 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Absolutely beautiful! A family in my grade school had an identical one in the 70s and like you, it started my love of Buicks. Congratulations!
What a score! 👍
Beautiful!!!!
It’s beautiful . I learned to drive in my mother’s 63 Wildcat convertible . Great car
That car is immaculate - congratulations on your purchase !!
Love this car
A beautiful wagon!! Amazing 👍👍
Thanks for sharing! An extraordinary example! Best of luck with this magnificent '73 Buick Estate Wagon. Love the optional "Buick Road Wheels!"
Beauty! I remember these as a kid and this is at the height of GM's station wagon design imo.
My Mother has the Oldsmobile version of this. We called it the Enterprise.
What a beauty..omg. I had 73 ltd 4 door..God I loved it
I love the big Buick wagons! 1976 is my favorite year but ‘73 had nice styling as well.
@@tyler2610 I like both too. I own a 76 Estate Wagon that is featured on this channel as well
my mom & dad had a 1973 Buick estate wagon it was in orange with the wood sides
Very nice. Those wheels just top it off.😊
If Cadillac made a wagon. Very nice.
Boy o boy, that is absolutely beautiful, great color also. Always loved the 73 Buicks. What an amazing restoration, looks factory fresh.
Have (2) 1971 buick estate wagons ( one trophy) one parts. Grew up in in the clamshell wagon...love it thanks for posting...congrats!
That’s my favorite feature.
Beautiful!
Awesome wagon
Beautiful wagon! Congratulations!
Gorgeous
Sweet! Need to see the interior!
It's a beauty! Enjoy it.
I am also in love with that wagon.
My girlfriend's Mom had a '75 when we were in high school, it was referred to as the Battle Wagon!

Pure automotive class!
Congratulations on the beautiful Buick! I had a ‘73 Centurion convertible for early 20 years as my daily driver. Best of cars, these full-size Buicks.
Loved the clam shell
My Dad had the 72 in Seamist Green w/wood paneling loaded and my Uncle had the 73 in White w/ wood paneling tape loaded. Can’t beat the styling!!! Love that blue.
Fantastic car! You forgot to mention the 455ci under the hood. The best V8 big block ever produced in Detroit!
Nice!
it's a beauty.
This is the President's Beast, civilian version!
My mom had a yellow one with brown interior.
If only you also showed the interior instead of continuing to talk. Beautiful wagon.

Classy clamshell. What Country was it produced in?
I’ll bet it’s a smooth cruiser.

@@stangslayerws6Glad you could repatriate this beauty!
How did they get the wood stickers on the cars on the assembly line?
I definitely like the 1976 grill and front end, but this one seems to be a little sleeker to me.
Far as i know the 71-76 had 4 ventiports..all vids i look at indicate this. 1970 was first year ..it had 4 as well.
Interior vid?
@@Napier363 Coming soon
I'm sure after 51 years that's not the first look
