    To continue the perpetual whitewalls debate we have going on, this 1957 Buick Caballero hardtop station wagon for sale on Hemmings.com is one of the few vehicles on which wide whites look perfectly at home, warranted by the two-tone color combination, the full wheelcovers, and the gloriously excessive chrome. From the seller’s description:

    Wagon's in Torrance, CA (Southern California) for anyone who's interested.

    Probably one of the nicest of these I've seen. Lots of new stuff on it. I'd be curious to see what it looked like before all the recent work.

    Price is $57k, which for these and the condition this particular one is in, seems reasonable.

    Another dream wagon for me to drool over. I'd even be happy with the Dynaflow on this one. :banana:

    I love this car and I'm sure not knocking it in any way.....but, with all the pix.....the dash and front seat are never shown. Strange. I do love the car, though.(y)

    I'd be happy to hang one of those back doors on the garage wall. Perfect car art!
