YesTire gauge (Y/N) Sure, I'll throw one inFlashlight (Y/N) NoBuick Road Atlas (Y/N) NoIn General, What items need attention?The emergency brake/rear brake system needs the most immediate attention. The car brakes fine, but the E-brake doesn't work and it thereby won't pass inspection. Mechanic has told me to fix the emergency brake will require almost completely redoing the rear system; lines, calipers, etc. There is also the power steering leak, but that is more of a nuisance than a problem to me. Other than than that it is mostly cosmetic, and mostly interior at that. The passenger headlight, the headliner, the passenger door panel/window, and the steering wheel. Also, the 'I' in BUICK across the back was stolen a couple years ago, and there is something slightly awry with the trunk latch motor/electronics. It opens, but if you leave the key turned, it will continue opening and closing every couple seconds.My Reatta Drives: (Excellent/Good/Fair/Poor) GoodWe are the 2nd owner of this Reatta. (I think, may have to ask my dad about that)We have owned this Reatta for about 7 Years. (Once again, I think)The car is high miles, but still runs well for something almost 20 years old with 300k on it. It will obviously need some TLC to fully restore it, but you and I know how rare these cars are, especially one that has never been in an accident. I'll be moving soon, and if I don't get it sold before I leave I will leave it to my father, Randy, to sell. In the mean time, contact me (Gabriel) or Randy at 919.577.9040 between 3 & 8pm Eastern or email me atgabrieljordan@gmail.comNote: Several pics can be seen at my flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gabrieljordan/sets/72157607002333903/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
