We have some fans of big cars and especially Buicks here.... There was a piece in the NYT today about actor Steve Carell, who graduated (much more recently) from my college. He was a college hockey goalie, apparently a good one. The article mentioned driving to practices in a teammate's '76 Buick Estate Wagon, so I looked it up. I had forgotten how American cars of that vintage were all hood! (The car was favored because it held 4 guys and all their gear). One of the guys recalled that you didn't steer that car, you just pointed it.
If you're Carell fan, here's the article:

Re: Buicks
That Estate Wagon would have ridden on the 126" wheelbase shared with Electra. They had a big hood to cover a big engine.
