No Reserve Auction V.I.N.: 43537OK135866 Daily driver runs like a top! This girl is one that prooves it's on the inside that counts. almost everything is original and functions as it should. The Interior is in great condition for the year. Motor runs like a sewing machine(it does appear to have a leak from one of the top gaskets. maybe valve cover i'm not sure) and tranny and all components function as they should. I would drive this vehicle anywhere. The outside needs a decent body guy to give her a little love and she will look like a million bucks. I included a picture of what she will look like with a little body help and a new paint,, maybe some 20's or 22's lol. I recently took this car off of a gentleman in a trade that owned it for 16 years who put a lot into the car but ran out of the means or ability to restore the car when a deer hit the left front fender. It should go to someone that will appreciate it just as much. The Motor has 57,000 miles on it and was a rebuilt installed in 2002. I have a receipt book for this vehicle that shows all of the purchases made for it since 2002. Please note the Odometer was reset when the new motor was installed. I don't know the actual milage of the vehicle it's self. Most upgrades have been made since 2006 totalling $4500.00. *again i have all of the recepts for these purchases). I'm upgrading my truck so i'm liquidating. My loss is your gain.So i'll give you a list of all the pros and cons about the car that I'm aware of. The car was a daily driver up until 2011. Has been started and ran often since then just not registered. I will consider reasonable offers or trades for nice running vehicles. Pro'sFrame is solidBody and Interior are in good condiion for the year. Most everything is orginal except the front seats(which are black leather) passenger headrest is ripped Parts are easy to find. Have the majority of all the trim pieces if not all of them. Extra set of rims in the trunk with full size spare. Motor- 71-80 Buick 350 w/ 4 Barrell Distributer-1979 Buick Lesaber 350.00 Transmission- 400 Turbo with a Shift Kit and Pulling package Body is in decent condition considering the year. there are few rust spots that go all the way thru. an area i know for sure that is the Passenger rear quarter. The floors on the inside have carpet but feel solid. Below are all NEW and Installed.since 2002, most since 2006 and I have a "Holy Grail" Book of reciepts and a ton of Info about the car. Ball Joints Front and Rear springs shocks front and rear brakes and hardware (drum brakes all the way arround) Windshield AC Compressor and 1 hose, condencer Door panels, seal plates, and seals Spark Plugs Fan Motor Fuel Tank Sending Unit Fuel Tank Front Bushings Sun Visor Supports Engine Harness Flywheel(not installed) it has one on it but i just have a new one. Headliner Alternator New CD Stereo. Rear Bock 6x9 3 Ways road master Front- Sony Tweeters. Cons: A/ Works. but needs a new hose and to be flushed and refilled. May need a new driver side fender for sure. maybe some other body pieces that can't be repaired by bondo. Needs Drip tray in trunk Needs some body work in a few other spots on the body Speedometer Reads 10mph faster than your actuall going. so if it says 50 your going 40 Gas Guages needs solder at contact points in dash but is functional for the mean while Needs a new Dash. I found one on ebay for like 80 buicks Has an oil leak in one of the top gaskets on the motor(but i'd drive this car anywhere)CD player kills the battery.

I can personally deliver the vehicle up to 500 miles for 1.50 per mile paid in adavance. another spot that is rusted thru that you may not notice on the pics is just below the passenger door. Also I should note that the driver door where it is adjacent to the front fender is bent as you can see from the pics. I do not know because it's on the edge if it can be repaired by some bending and bondo or if the door will have to be replaced. You can see there are rust spots that may be comming thru old repairs. I think perhaps an examble of this is the passenger front fender. I tried to look at the motor to see if I can tell exactly where the oil leak is and I can not locate it. Just some things that I felt i should touch on a bit more. Thanks for looking
