    I KNEW something looked 'off' about this one. It is missing the fine chrome molding outlining the door windows. I checked the ads for a couple of other Buicks, including the blue 72, and it is there on all of them. Plus, the upper trim on the woodgrain seems out of kilter at the join between the 2 doors. Makes me wonder what else was not done right on it.

    Not a big fan of the woodgrain but this wagon still looks very nice.

    Nothing wrong for this car not having the chrome around the windows (or rocker moldings for that matter). They were optional for any 1972 Estate. My low option 72 Estate doesn't have the window moldings, rocker moldings or wheel opening moldings.

    Nice car. Just not found of the 72 front. And I love woodgrain but on the Buicks I don't really care for it. Do like the color combo though.
