We have in our inventory the 1976 Buick Century Wagon used in the HBO movie “Behind the Candelabra” — complete with the piano keys wrapped around the exterior. The third generation of Buick Centuries came in three different body styles, one of which was a four-door station wagon. Of those station wagons, they had two-seaters and three-seaters. This Century wagon in our showroom is of the three-seater variety with rear jumpseat and overall room for nine. Based on Scott Thornson’s memoir, “Behind the Candelabra” is a 2013 American drama film directed by Steven Soderbergh about the last 10 years in the life of world-famous pianist Liberace and the secret affair he had with the younger Thornson. Jerry Weintraub was the executive producer. The movie debuted at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival on May 21, 2013 and aired on HBO five days later. Michael Douglas (Liberace) and Matt Damon (Thornson) starred in this movie which featured this ’76 Buick, and now this piece of movie memorabilia can be in your collection thanks to MotoeXotica Classic Cars. The car was driven by Matt Damon on several occasions in the movie while he chauffeured Michael Douglas on his escapades. If you are into DNA, both will be found! The most striking feature of the car is the piano keys wrapped along the lower exterior. This is fitting for the famous pianist and definitely sets this car apart from anything else — Buick or movie cars! The wagon currently sits on four Kumho All-Season 793 tires measuring P 225/75R15. The exterior is Mount Vernon Cream. This Buick retains its correct Buckskin vinyl interior and the original dash and gauges. A sunroof is there to let the air in as you ride down the highway. The third seats folds down in the back for more cargo space. Under the hood is a 350-CID V8 engine — in a correct engine bay — mated to an automatic transmission. This is a unique movie prop that will add some flare to your collection. On top of all this, this car comes with its original owners manual, invoice, window sticker and build sheet! VIN is 4K45J6Z119472, and mileage reads 31,151. It is being sold on a clear California title with just one owner. GET OUT AND DRIVE!
