Buick Estate Woody Years produced: 1941-1953 Original starting price: $1,463 We aren't talking about the huge, utilitarian Buick Estate wagons of the 1960s through the 1980s, but the big-grilled, wood-bodied wagons Buick made in the 1940s and '50s. This was back when Buick wasn't just yet another GM brand that needed a wagon, but a near-autonomous badge that could offer its own engines and designs to set itself apart. Wood panels weren't built for the long haul, which makes a childhood spent in one of these worth cherishing. Good luck finding an intact model today.
