Vehicle Detail
This auction is for three cars and they all are 1936 Buicks. One is a model 66c four passenger century 2 door convertible coupe with rumble seat, one is a model 48 five passenger special 2 door victoria coupe with built in trunk, and the other one is a model 61 five passenger century 4 door with built in trunk. I have clear N.D. titles for the convertible and sedan, the four door I think would only be good for parts because the passenger side is all rotten. I have had the convertible in storage for the last 17 years and have decided it's time to part with these projects. Production figures for the convertible were 717 made with 49 of those exported, my guess would be that there are only a handful of these left. I believe all the main metal parts are there for the convertible top along with a few extra metal pieces added over the years. I pulled the motor out of the convertible and I still have it but it would be only for parts because of a major crack from being frozen. Now realize these all need major work, have wood in the doors so the wood has dried up and where the metal hinges attach to the wood it's (wood) loose or gone completely. The center metal hinge on the hoods are also broke. You can move the convertible around with man power or a rope (rolling chassis). As you can see in the pictures, over the years I have picked up a lot of extra parts including but not limited too extra interior door handles and window hardware, a nos grille, this is not as nice as an original because it's cast aluminum but still nice and other misc items. I also have the cars for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early and you can call with any questions 701-837-7907 and scammers don't waste your time or mine. Only bid if you are serious, and if you do buy these and there is something you don't want your are welcome to leave it, I'll take care of it. I will load for free but you have to work with me because I might be busy trucking, don't worry about getting these moved right away, they can stay here for a while, no problem.

I also found a nice set of trunk hinges.On May-26-13 at 10:36:53 PDT, seller added the following information: Here's a little interesting statement I found online:1936 Buick Century In 1936 Buick renamed its entire model line-up in Celebration of it's improvements and advancements from the earlier model years. The Buick Century was born in 1936 as it took the place of the Series"60" model. The new Buick Century was created by combining the shorter wheelbase. Buick Special with the eight-cylinder engine and a better higher performance caused the Century to soon be nicknamed "the banker's hotrod" as it was one of the fastest Buickās of it's era in the late 30's. On May-26-13 at 14:01:24 PDT, seller added the following information: Hi, A potential buyer pointed out that maybe all the parts for the convertible top are not here. It looks like maybe (from the pictures he sent) that one bow is missing and like a flat piece on each side is missing. I wil include everything I have for the cars but please realize you are buying what you see, less trees, land, and other none car related items of course. This same person said they used the same top from 1936 to 1942.On May-28-13 at 12:10:23 PDT, seller added the following information: Hi all, I found a few more parts here the other night, a nice front drivers side fender for a special (not perfect but pretty good) and a couple more 16 inch rims for a special. A few people have inquired about parts so if you are the buyer and want to sell some parts I have some contacts numbers. Thanks
