My brother has been disabled for the past 30 years with arthritis of the spine. The only car he has been able to drive in all these years is his '78 Buick Century station wagon. He's tried switching to newer cars over the years, but subtle difference in the seatingaggravated his back pain so much there's no point trying to go anywhere. The Buick is so rusted and worn out at this point as to be irreparable. We're losing him, he's just so depressed at being housebound the way he is.

If any of you all can help us to locate a Buick Century station wagon between the years of '78 and '82 that's in good working order it would be a godsend.

Thanks much

has he tried a park avenue or bonneville? they have very comfortable seating. or even the roadmasters, those were also great for comfort. cuz that particular car you are after may be difficult to come by.

Thanks for the reply. He says he's tried everything. My theory is that over the years the boney overgrowth that arthritis causeshas fused a lot of the bone in his spine, and him sitting in that car all those years in that position, he's gotten kind of 'stuck' there. So it's not so much an issue that the Buick Century is any more comfortable, it's just what he's stuck with.
