Buick, the US car manufacturer under parent company General Motors, introduced their Century vehicle range in 1936 and it continued on and off, with a gap during WWII, right until the 1990s. The Century name represented six generations of cars of varying sizes, performance and trim levels. All of them, including the 1954 station wagon featured an FR layout which incorporated a transverse front engine and rear wheel drive. The Buick Century Estate Wagon represented one of the second generation of vehicles produced between 1954 and 1958. It was classed as an upscale, full-sized car first aimed at the wealthier country estate fraternity.
