    Is he describing it correctly? I could be wrong, of course, but my reference says that the '84 Buick full-size wagon was part of the Electra Limited line, not the Park Avenue line. So this car would be more correctly called an Electra Limited Estate Wagon. My source says the '84 Park Avenue came only as a 4-door or a 2-door sedan. Maybe he has a Canada-only model?

    No, seller is not describing it correctly, no such thing as a Park Avenue and no such Canada only model. You are correct about the 2 and 4 door sedans.

    Nope. I was being sarcastic-y. The front grille is all wrong for the car and there was no such thing as a park avenue wagon. It's an electra for sure. It's kinda hard to tell whats going on in the pics. Is it rusted on the bottom or is that a reflection from the muddy ground?

    Hey mike, step in here and describe what you saw in the earlier pics that were posted....and are now gone....

    The header panel is the wrong colour so has been changed. My guess is that it is an 86 or 87, and that is the factory paint on that header. The burgundy for those years was darker. That would explain the grill too. The bumper filler is shot, of course, and as normal. There is also an exhaust leak, and a pretty big one by the look of it.
