Vehicle Detail

Car was bought from Heritage Olds Buick GMC in Pulaski VA, and has 82,000 original miles and looks to be all original. I changed the oil to full synthetic, installed new antifreeze/radiator, and put on 4 new tires on original buick chrome rally wheels. Car hasn't been driven that far really, only around the town I live in, but it seems to steer and brake nice and tight and the turbo spools up nicely. I buffed the original paint and it looks pretty good for being 30+ years old but this is not a show car its a driver. I willl post VIN number tonight, I have a clear VA title in my name. I have had a million questions about this car. Yes it runs and drives but I wouldn't take it across the country without taking a few smaller trips first and/or replacing all belts hoses etc. Is it rust free? LOL that is a matter of opinion. The main rust I can see (there could be more) is on the bottom of inside of doors (which they all have) and one spot in the passenger side front floor board right over the catalytic converter. The rear bumper chrome is pitted on top and the rear bumper fillers are gone. There are various other paint chips and small rust spots here and there but all in all it is a very solid car, the frame, trunk, quarter panels etc all look solid. This car is ALL original and would need a paint job, some interior work etc...to be a show car (I would be sellling it for alot more than this if it was a show car). Good news is it hasn't been modified/abused or packed full of bondo and painted, you can see what you are buying with this one. Kevin
