Engine runs, transmission will need a tune up but works, however I replaced a leaking wheel cylinder recently after it sat for four years, and realized I just do not have the time for this car. There is no pressure in the brake lines after bleeding once, but I did not see any other leaks. I have a clean title in hand. SPARE PARTS: 350 transmission(condition unknown), new driver side rear quarter panel, partial set of new front brake lines, plastic radiator shroud, many trim pieces, and two original wheels. Summary: This is a solid true Buick GS 350 that needs your time and skills to become a low cost brilliant feeling muscle car. I enjoyed it since the age of 16 and took very good care of it without doing a restoration, now it is time for a restoration. Fine Print: The vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. The car is for sale as-is and the winner of the auction assumes responsibility for delivery.
