Vehicle Detail
26000 ORIGINAL MILES! 430-4 optional motor rated at 360 hp and 475lbs of torque Smooth shifting TH350 trans Factory AC RARE! (needs recharged but will work) Original radio (needs speakers reinstalled) Electric front seat works Tinted windows saved the interior from fading or cracking Hardly any rust with only surface rust from scratch in the paint and one small rust through on the right side front fender. Tires are at 85% Front brakes are new Shocks are newer Belts, hoses, battery, are all newer Radiator was replaced after the car sat for many years to prevent any clogging of engine coolant passageways Windshield is cracked but Dashboard is NOT cracked (amazing i know) Garaged a total of thirty years (once at 15000 for 25 years and once again at 25000 for 5 years) The other twelve years it was often garaged inbetween driving but paint has faded so has spent some time sitting outside. Vinyl top is in ok shape. Looks great after being cleaned and oiled, very black still All brightwork and chrome are in great shape inside and out. All emblems are in great shape except for center hood three banner Buick symbol. Front seat has crack on drivers side but rest of seat and rear seat are firm and undamaged. Power antenna still works I purchased this car recently to use the engine and transmission for my 1935 chevy project. After buying this pristine car and driving it for the last 1000 miles, i now wish for it to go to a good home instead. I get so many compliments and stares and questions as i drive it i just know it is worthy of a nice paint job and a loving new owner. Most of my driving has been to and from work but I recently took it for a 350 mile drive and it was very comfortable, drove straight, no problems and even came in with almost 20 mpg. This sweety starts up right away every time and runs great. The exhaust has been changed out for glasspacks and the sound is smooth at cruising speeds, but as loud as you want it when you mash the pedal. I still need a powerful big block and matching trans and rear axle for my 35 project so i did put a reserve price on this car so i can assure i will have enough dough to purchase a new donor. However if this does not sell this is its last chance and i will begin cutting it up. SAVE THIS CAR FROM BECOMING A DONOR TO A RATROD PROJECT! Powered by eBay Turbo ListerThe free listing tool.
