Vehicle Detail
Beautiful Classic Regal This is one of those rare finds that you always hear about someone else getting.. It's getting harder and harder to find one of these in this condition. They are usually rusted out, worn out, or beat to death. =========================================================== This was a California car it's entire life until a few months ago. Zero rust. This was owned by a friends grandfather who left it to him, but this car is just not his style. Well cared for and has been maintained by professionals always. Full documentation. This car is like stepping back into the 80's when they were new. It even has that 80's car smell. All the way around it has been well taken care of. Exterior- The paint is excellent - 1 tiny door ding on passenger side - see in picsNew fiberglass bumper fillers just painted to match and installedGlass is all perfect - no chips/no cracks in windshieldChrome is all good and still shinesTires are like newAll lights work correctlyDoors/trunk/hood close perfectLandau top is perfectExhaust looks newShocks look new Interior-Excellent condition throughout - Driver seat has 2 tiny wear spots on side from seat belt- see picsCarpet is good with no wearDoor panels, dash, etc are all excellentAll interior lighting works correctlyGauges/dash lighting work correctlyThe AM/FM Radio seems to act a little odd - just the digital display portionNon Smoker carSplit bench w/ armrest6 way power seat - a little noisy but worksPower windows - driver side hesitates sometimesVery comfortable Mechanicals-3.8 V6 - Pump the gas and hit the key. Starts right up. Needs a couple quick light revs to smooth outAutomatic trans shifts perfectBrakes work perfect - no pull or surgingShocks feel tight and newRuns at correct tempNo funny noises or rattles / or smokeAll hoses/belts/filters appear newQuiet exhaustI did see a drop of oil when I moved it but the undercarriage is clean. Maybe a gasket starting to go from sitting?Power steering quiet and smoothRadiator looks clean w/no leaksJust converted to R134a AC and blows cold- New pressure switch, clutch relay, fan relay, hi/lo hose assembly, and orifice tube. I would rate this car a 9.5 out of 10 overall. It looks like it has been well maintained but has also sat quite a bit. That would also be why it only has 67k miles. It most likely needs to be fine tuned and driven a little. It comes with a folder full of documentation of everything ever done to the car. I didn't look through all of it but I did see a receipt for a new headliner at some point. And a new top. It is a lot of slips from the emissions tests too. It comes with the original window sticker, the build sheet, owners manual, and even the business card of the salesman that sold it. The spare tire and jack are in place. And it comes with a set of tire chains (in Cali?) that look like they were from the 80's as well. The paint was redone after a very minor parking lot incident. It's a beautiful low mileage car that looks like it belongs on a movie set for an 80's film. It would make a perfect car for someone that loves this body style. These were the comfortable cruiser of their day, still look sporty, handle well, and kept the Buick reliability alive and well. This is all I can think of. As mentioned this was a friends car that was from his grandfather who took very good care of it. I don't believe you will find another one that is in this condition. I've looked over the car, did a safety check, and a short test drive to insure there wouldn't be any surprises. It's a great car.
