This late 1980s Buick Park Avenue\* was parked on my street for a while this afternoon. I assume it belongs to one of the construction workers working across the street. I had one just like it in high school and part of college, except mine was grey. [Yes, that’s the car where the paint peeled off the hood on the freeway](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/unusual-car-problems-you-had/967817/17). Although I assume this car’s paint problems are due to age rather than a cheap repaint.

\*If you’re a pedant, it’s technically an “Electra Park Avenue”, as Park Avenue was a trim level of the Electra at the time.
