    :Welcome:Dave in Fl from Denny in Fl. Love those Buick Caballeros. It's odd, lately there have been more of them for 1957-58 posted than I've ever seen on the road. One of my favorite Buicks.
    Please post some more pictures of yours and tell us more about you and the wagon.:camera:

    Wow!

    :Welcome: aboard Dave.
    . I've always been a fan of '57- '58 Caballeros. You just never see them at car shows or on the road ever.
    Please post some pics for us to oogle over. :cheers:


    Where in our great state do you reside?

    Jack in Florida.:)

    Last year of the Caballero! One of only 4,456 built for 1958!

    All said and done, production fell from 10,186 Caballeros in 1957 to only 4,456 in ’58 before Buick axed the project, citing increased financial constraints and retooling costs.:dance::oops:mg:

    At least they went a year beyond the real Nomad.
    Still in fairness those specialty wagons cost way more than your average car or station wagon.
    A decent home in the midwest sold for $10,000-$15,000.
