Vehicle Detail

This 1957 Buick Century has the desired 3 piece rear window. The car has been a local Northern Califonia car since new and is very solid. The floors, rockers, trunk fenders, doors, have NO rust problems at all. I have owned this car for several years. I am so involved with restoration of customer cars that my own cars seem to just sit here. I need to reduce the number of cars I own. This is the next car that can go to a new home. PLEASE NOTE! This is NOW being RELISTED because the WINNING BIDDER did not follow through. He has called me TWICE and I called him as well, it seems he is traveling and just unable to complete the purchase. SO-- PLEASE if you have some kind of conflict that will cause the purchase to fail let someone get it that can follow through. I waited THREE WEEKS for the other bidder because he kept telling me he wanted the car. I think I have been VERY Generous with allowing time for him to complete this transaction! This Buick Century Runs Great - Shifts Fine - Starts Easy - Looks GOOD! It has been repainted at some time long ago. I have a video on you tube with a short road test that I can share with you. Search rodneyright to find it! Since the car has not been driven for more than 10 years, it is not registered or insured, so my road test is very short. This is a driveable car like it is. BUT as all OLD cars need things, this Buick will need some things done. you will need to decide what is OK like it is, or can be upgraded. Title is in my name. I have a 100% eBay rating and have been an active eBay user for a very long time. I want to continue to protect my good rating. I do export. The car can stay here until you have your transport set up. I do have some of the regular car-guys that come here interested in the Buick. If they put a package deal together for this and other cars I have, I will notify all bidders prior to acepting any offers. PLEASE READ The Payment Instructions! PayPal Depoist required. Balance in CASH or wire transfer. YOU NEED to know, that I got the car from a local kid that got it from the original owners. HE decided to make some kind of custom.. I have no idea what he was thinking.. He cut the center of the dash OUT and had welded a flat piece of sheetmetal in place of the wonderfull Buick dash... Seems that he threw away the original parts. I have collected original dash parts over the years and have managed to get it all back in place. You can see that the "Engine Turned" aluminum insert does not look corect. This was the best one I could find. The glove box latch is broken. I have all the heater controls working, but did not connect them to the heater box. All the gauges are working. The interior has wrong upholstery and the doors and windows need new weatherstrips. The visors are there but need recovering. The radio does not work. I have MANY pictures and can send you any and all information. I welcome and encourage inspections. PLEASE ASK Questions. I will post ALL questions IF you do not include personal information in your question.

The video is on you tube under my name of rodneyracer -- SORRY about the wrong user name!
