The 4th thumbnail is from the rough cut of the film, featured on the Clerks X DVD.

It wasn't a bad looking car at all. Certainly no beater.

I think this is actually a 1976 model, check out the 5th thumbnail I posted. I think the '74 model has a different front to this.

The 1974 Century (and Regal) had 2 round headlamps.

This is a 76 Buick Century.
The Century Luxus was only offered in 1974. Possibly 73 also, but I know for sure it was not offered in '75.

Co-producer Scott Mossier, in the anniversary DVD packaging, described this car as "Kevin Smith's piece of shit brown Buick," and claims it caught fire and burned completely a few months after the film was made.

It's a 1977 Century Custom.

Kojak is right! What a ugly body style and a great pick for this film! The nadir of US car manufacturing. Low compression v8 crapmoblie.

Au contraire!
Have always liked the sedan models in this body and their somewhat retro rounded look.
Looks sleek to me!

Agreed. I've always dug the "Colonnade" era (1973-1977) General Motors A-bodies.

Actually it's even worse. You can see when it pulls up to the store there's a V6 badge on the front fender, indicating it had the Buick 231 and all 110 hp, or 3 more than my Echo. :D
