1953 Buick Super Estate Wagon

The car is finished in white over blue and white upholstery, and power comes from a Fireball 322ci V8 paired with a Dynaflow automatic transmission. Features include power steering, power-assisted brakes, chrome wire wheels, a heater, and an AM radio with updated functionality. The wood-bodied Model 59 Super Estate Wagon was built for Buick by the Ionia Manufacturing Company of Michigan. Equipment includes chrome bumpers, fender-mounted Ventiports, dual sideview mirrors, Sweepspear body-side trim, reverse lights, and a clamshell tailgate. Chrome-finished wire wheels are mounted with bias-ply whitewall tires. The car was equipped from the factory with power-assisted steering, and stopping power is provided by four-wheel drum brakes. The interior features two-tone blue and white upholstery that trims the bench seats as well as the door panels. Gray carpeting covers the floors, and additional equipment includes a heater, a clock, wood headliner trim, a rear robe cord, a fold-down rear bench seat, and a dark blue rubber mat over the rear cargo floor. The Buick Sonomatic AM radioâ??s internals reportedly have been updated to play FM frequencies as well as Parrot hands-free Bluetooth receiver. A toggle switch for an electric fuel primer has been added beneath the dashboard.
