DUE TO HEALTH CONDITIONS I AM BEING FORCED TO SLOWLY (BUT SURELY) THIN OUT MY COLLECTION OF AWESOME RIDES!! PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE LISTING AND READ ENTIRELY BEFORE BIDDING!! DEPOSIT IS NON-REFUNDABLE!! THIS CAR IS NOT BEING SOLD TO DRIVE HOME WITHOUT AT LEAST A TUNE UP AND SOME MINOR WORK FROM SITTING FOR A FEW YEARS!! WITH A LITTLE WORK, IT COULD EASILY BE DRIVEN. I AM LISTING MY 1935 BUICK SERIES 40 STREET ROD SEDAN CUSTOM. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN MY FAMILY FOR ALMOST 35 YEARS, IT WAS MY FATHER'S IN THE 70s AND 80s. IT WAS RESTORED A FEW YEARS BACK AND STREET RODDED. WHEN MY FATHER WAS ALIVE THIS CAR WAS A REGULAR AT THE GRAND ROD RUN IN PIGEON FORGE, TN AND SHADES OF THE PAST. THERE ARE SOME PICS OF THE CAR AT THE SHOW A FEW YEARS BACK WHEN IT WAS TRAILERED DOWN TO BE SHOWN OFF. THIS WAS THE LAST TIME THE CAR WAS OUT EXCEPT FOR A TRIP TO 'TOWN' AND BACK WHEN THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED A COUPLE YEARS AGO. THIS CAR IS SUPER SHARP AND HAS NO BONDO FIBERGLASS FILLER IN IT ANYWHERE!! WHEN MY FATHER PURCHASED THIS CAR IN THE LATE 70s IT HAD BEEN IN DRY STORAGE FOR YEARS. THE CAR WAS ALL ORIGINAL THEN AND WAS DRIVEN BY MY FATHER A FEW TIMES BEFORE HE DECIDED TO STREET ROD IT QUITE A FEW YEARS AFTER THAT. IT WAS CONVERTED OVER TO HYDRAULIC BRAKES FRONT AND BACK, IT HAS A TORINO REAR END AND ALL WAS RE-DRILLED TO FIT BUICK LARGE LUG PATTERN. THIS CAR WILL RUN 65 DOWN THE INTERSTATE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE!! KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS CAR IS AN OLD SCHOOL RESTORATION, IT WAS MODIFIED TO BE THE 70s - 80s STREET ROD GENRE AND WAS DONE BEAUTIFULLY! THE BODY IS STRAIGHT AND NO RUST EVER!! THE ENGINE IS A SMALL BLACK BUICK 340 NAILHEAD THAT SOUNDS AWESOME!! I'VE NEVER HEARD A CAR SOUND OFF LIKE THIS ONE. THE BRAKES ARE DRUM, THE INTERIOR IS REDONE ORIGINAL BUT IN PLUSH CLOTH. I AM OF THE EXPERIENCED OPINION THAT THIS CAR WOULD MAKE AN EXCELLENT PROJECT FOR AN UPDATED SHOW CAR!! WITH AN INVESTMENT OF PROBABLY 10K.. REDOING THE INTERIOR, NEW UPDATED RIMS, AND DRESSING UP THE ENGINE.. ETC, THIS CAR WOULD BRING TOP TOP TOP DOLLAR!! OR YOU CAN JUST TUNE IT UP AND DO SOME MINOR WORK AND DRIVE IS AS IT IS!! WHEN THIS CAR WAS RESTORED, ALL OF THE CHROME WAS REDONE!! THE DOOR HANDLES WERE SENT OFF TO BE RESTORED AND KEYS MADE TO FIT THE ORIGINAL DOOR LOCKS. THE CHROME ON THIS CAR STILL LOOKS GREAT, AS THIS CAR HAS NOT SEEN WEATHER IN MANY MANY YEARS!!! ALWAYS STORED IN A LARGE BLOCK HEAVY TRUCK GARAGE FOR OVER 20 YEARS. THIS CAR WAS PAINTED WITH EMERON (AIR PLANE) PAINT AND ALL THE RUBBER AROUND THE WINDOWS WAS REPLACED, AS WELL AS THE GLASS AND THE OEM CLOTH TOP INSTALLED! NEW OEM RUBBER ON THE RUNNING BOARDS. EVEN THE BUICK EMBLEMS AND THE 'FLYING LADY' HOOD ORNAMENT WERE RESTORED TO LIKE NEW CONDITION!! OVER 5000 IN CHROME WORK WAS DONE ON THIS CAR.. (GRILLE, BUMPERS, DOOR HANDLES, ORNAMENTS, RUNNING BOARD RAILS, ETC.) AND THE PAINT WHICH IS NOW OVER 20 YEARS OLD.. WAS 3500 BUCKS!! THE PAINT SHOWS SOME AGE, BUT THE CAR STILL KNOCKS THEM DEAD WHEREVER AND WHENEVER IT IS SEEN!! THE ONLY THING THE CAR NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN ANYWHERE RIGHT NOW, IS THE FUEL TANK CLEANED OUT. IT'S BEEN SITTING FOR MOST OF THE LAST 10 YEARS, AND THE LAST TIME I DROVE IT, IT SEEMED TO BE STARVING A LITTLE FOR FUEL. THIS COULD BE A CARB ISSUE AS WELL. THE CARBURETOR WAS REPLACED WITH AN EDELBROCK FOUR BARRELL ABOUT TEN YEARS AGO. IV'E DONE MY VERY BEST TO DESCRIBE THIS CAR AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE!!! BUT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WILL DO THIS CAR JUSTICE EXCEPT FOR COMING OUT TO LOOK AT IT!! DON'T MISS OUT ON THE CHANCE TO GET THIS ALREADY FABULOUS LOOKING ORIGINAL WELL-KEPT ONE OF A KIND CAR. YOU'LL LOOK ALL OVER THE COUNTRY AND NEVER FIND ANOTHER CAR THIS NICE MOSTLY UNMOLESTED AND AT A PRICE LIKE THIS!! I CAN'T ADD ANY MORE AT THIS MOMENT BUT SERIOUS BUYERS FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AND I'LL BE GLAD TO HELP YOU WITH ANYMORE DETAILS!! 865-278-0377!! PLEASE NO TIRE KICKERS OR SPAM I DON'T HAVE THE TIME!! THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITH NO ACTIVE WARRANTY IMPLIED OR OTHERWISE!!! IMMEDIATE DEPOSIT OF 500 US DOLLARS IS DUE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS!!! FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 7 DAYS!! NO EXCEPTIONS!! I'M SELLING AT A HUGE LOSS SO DON'T EXPECT ME TO BEG FOR PAYMENT OR DEPOSIT!! SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY!! I'LL BE GLAD TO ASSIST WITH INTERNATIONAL OR DOMESTIC SHIPPING!! THANKS FOR LOOKING!!! On Nov-15-13 at 16:48:30 PST, seller added the following information: I'VE HAD A DOZEN REQUEST FOR CURRENT PICS AND PICS OF THE INTERIOR. I HAVE ADDED THOSE. THE INTERIOR IS NOT TOO FLASHY, BUT IT'S ALL THERE AND LOOKS PRESENTABLE. IT WAS MEANT TO BE UPDATED AND CUSTOMIZED LATER, BUT NEVER WAS. THE DASH GAUGES ALL LOOK FANTASTIC AND THE LAST TIME I CHECKED, THE WORKED (EXC. CLOCK). THIS CAR IS COVERED IN DUST, HOWEVER IT HAS SPENT MOST OF IT'S LIFE HERE LOCKED AWAY AND COVERED IN DUST... BUT WHEN YOU CRANK IT UP AND TAKE A WATER HOSE TO IT, IT WILL LOOK JUST AS IT DID TWO YEARS AGO ON THE TRAILER IN THE PICS. THANKS FOR ALL THE INTEREST AND YOUR QUESTIONS AND PHONECALLS. LET ME KNOW IF I CAN ASSIST IN ANY OTHER WAY.On Nov-17-13 at 15:25:06 PST, seller added the following information: I'VE HAD A DOZEN REQUEST AND QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW THIS CAR RUNS, HOW THE DOORS OPEN AND SHUT.... SO I'VE TAKEN SOME VIDEOS JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO. I POURED SOME FRESH GAS IN THE CAR, AND CHARGED THE BATTERY UP A LITTLE, TOOK ABOUT AN HOUR. THIS CAR SOUNDS AWESOME!!! IT WILL DEFINITELY TALK TO YOU. I CANT RUN IT LONG AS THIS IS STORED IN A VERY CLOSED IN AIR TIGHT SPACE, THAT'S WHAT HAS SAVED THIS CAR AND ITS BODY FOR SO LONG! AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE VIDEOS... THE DOORS ARE LINED UP PERFECT, YOU'LL NEVER FIND ANOTHER CAR THIS OLD WITH THIS PRISTINE OF AN ORIGINAL BODY!! ONE TIME CHANCE TO OWN THIS CAR, IF IT DOESN'T SELL, IT MAY NOT BE BACK ON THE MARKET FOR MANY MORE YEARS.
