Buick, part of General Motors in the USA, manufactured their Century range from 1936 right through to the 1990s with one or two gaps in between, including WWII. Over six decades, the Century came in various shapes and sizes and all with the same FR layout, including this one, launched in 1954 as an Estate Wagon.
