The Buick Caballero, sold only in the 1957 and 1958 model years, was positioned at the top of the Buick line. The design and inspiration for the Caballero came from the 1956 Buick Centurion Dream Car. The Caballero has a B-pillarless design and sweeping door line. Though they were popular, the high production costs led to the cancellation of the Caballero model before 1959.
This Estate Wagon has been donated to the George W. Bush Foundation by Portland's Sondland-Durant Foundation. It was sold new in 1957 by William Murphy Buick in Culver City, California. The original owner retained the car until 2012.
The car is powered by a 363 cubic-inch overhead valve V-8 engine fitted with 4-barrel downdraft carburetors. The 300 horsepower is sent to the rear wheels via a Dynaflow Automatic gearbox with disc brakes in the front and hydraulic drums in the rear.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2014
