Dear mid-60s Buick owners with a taste for all kinds 4 wheeled locomotion,
My trusty wagon was alas unable to participate in the 2017 Orinda Classic Car show. However, I went over and took in the sights. I uploaded all my photos to an online photo gallery that you can find here:

Like most general interest shows, there aren't many Buicks. However, there was a 1954 Buick convertible:
