This is a 1996 Buick Roadmaster Wagon with 135K miles (April 2019). The engine is an LT1 and it's got some upgrades like a TPIS ZZ9 Hydraulic Roller cam (212/226 @050), Roller Rocker Arms, a pair of aluminum heads, K&N in box air Filter and a nice long tube headers, everting was set up though ECU tuning. The rear end was upgraded as well for a 3.73 posi traction. Although the car has a 2.5 inches dual exhaust I kept it quiet for a perfect daily driver. Suspension is totally fresh with a pair of Bilstein Shocks a short ratio (Impala SS) steering box. Everything else remains stock. I had a chance to take her for drag strip and she clocked a respectable 14.53 considering a grocery grabber.

  • AThe father of the Minivan.. the grandfather of the S.U.V. Power and performance.. practicality and comfort,with a degree of luxury. Like so many things in life, we don't appreciate it until we no longer have it. An addendum... The music was and is appropriate and great.. Geezer Rock Forever.

  • The Roadmaster is just as iconic as the Delorean. Sure it may not help you time travel but just looking at this car, it’s made for travel. In a world full of Mercedes and BMWs, this is better and luxurious.

  • That is a beautiful car. I'm hoping to be in a 95 Caprice sedan in two weeks with 73k miles on it, a one owner. About $4k. I was looking for Roadmaster Estate Wagons but this beauty popped up. Your car looks great without the faux wood treatment. Perfect color combo and it makes nice asphalt tattoos!

    • Thank you. The headers is a Clear Image. According to my research it’s the best fit for LT1. As far as I remember there’s no mods required.

    • Hey brother, why is it necessary to start with a compliment then insult the owner right after? You're right, it is a nice car. Just leave it at that so the owner can enjoy your comment. Just something to think about. And by the way...Del Shannon is NOT "crappy music", by any stretch.
