    There's probably a Pontiac Safari driving around with Buick lights that would like to talk with the owner..........

    Why would it have Pontiac lights?

    Crash?

    They look good, but is the back bumper crooked. May have been hit from behind and repaired?

    Also, I don't think I've ever seen a wood delete version of this car.

    Just wondering.

    I think accident also when I see wrong tail lights, but ya never know. I changed my Buick's lights for Chevy because I preferred the look not because of a crash.

    Bumper looks OK to me, but bumper fillers show a weird shadow and could be (?) dry rotting warping. Notice the front of the car, the passenger filler is missing also. We see a lot of these 80's GM wagons with bumper filler rot issues.

    Wood delete ones are out there, several have been posted over time.

    That's a good buy for that maroon station wagon with a straight rear bumper.

    Owner updated the ad with a few interior pics. Got a message that the father (who he's selling the car for) is moving out of state by the end of the week. If its as good as it looks, somebody might get a good buy.
