STORY

The Wildcat was Buick's full-size performance-oriented model, spun off from the Invicta and named for a 1953 concept car. Positioned as the sportier big Buick, it offered bucket seats, console, and potent 401 and 425 V8 'Nailhead' engines. Produced from 1963 to 1970, it slotted between the LeSabre and Electra 225.
