For those in the area, I just noticed this 89 Reatta online when looking at a LeSabre T-type in their listings. I'm not near this yard, but sometimes these places have really reasonable prices. https://www.lkqpickyourpart.com/locations/LKQ_Pick_Your_Part_-_Anaheim-265/recents/1989-buick-reatta/ 1989 BUICK REATTA Color: White VIN: 1G4EC11C7KB902983 Section: GM Row: 36 Space: 9 Stock #: 1265-75650 Available: 10/26/2020

I've decided to sell a parts car that I haven't needed much from in a long time. It could probably be made to run, but hasn't been running in several years and does not have plug wires or coil/pack ignition module. Odometer 220k+. Pictures are in my ad below. Transmission was apparently rebuilt and shifted well. The grey cloth interior is rough. No significant rust. $250 with title. Please call me at five o 5 four nine 0 thirtyeightsixty8 or use the craigslist system. Thank you, Joel (Santa Fe NM) https://santafe.craigslist.org/pts/d/santa-fe-1988-buick-lesabre-parts-car/7

What did you do to your Reatta today? <ongoing thread>
vidsal replied to SeanR's topic in Buick Reatta
I started my 90 Reatta Conv for the first time in a while inspired by this forum string, but I didn't drive it. The fuel pressure seems ok and the car seems to be doing well, but the first picture is a clue as to why I'm not driving it out in a minute. -
Reattas for sale on Criagslist, eBay, etc. * Not Mine*
vidsal replied to Ronnie's topic in Buick Reatta
THIS AD HAS EXPIRED I almost bought this car and just decided to pass over the past few minutes. It could be a great deal for someone out there. I have not inspected the car in person, but I do have a few details if needed. I doubt the car will be for sale very long. The low mileage had me running the numbers on a 1700+ mile journey which is partially responsible for me rejecting the car. https://harrisburg.craigslist.org/cto/d/1990-buick-reatta-convertible/6582067393.html I'll paste the text and you can follow the link if it's still up for a couple pict -
Congratulations! It looks like new and almost inspires me to get mine out.....my wife says, "Almost?!?!" I better get cleaning.

90 Reatta Supercharged on CL - poster says has 7 others
vidsal replied to vidsal's topic in Buick Reatta
I misread....total of 7. Haven't looked carefully enough to see if I can edit the subject. -
This is interesting as another potential pile of Reattas: https://duluth.craigslist.org/cto/d/supercharged-1990-reatta/6297371538.html Another one: https://duluth.craigslist.org/cto/d/90-reatta-convertible/6284053150.html The sat image shows a nice bunch of cars there and even what appear to be school buses holding parts. Could be a salvage yard of some sort, but I have seen private ones like that many many times.

Very interesting one. It could be hard to track down if the seller isn't monitoring their ads. They posted another ad without details in another section:

Rivieras and Riviera parts for sale on local Craigslist, eBay, etc.
vidsal replied to RivNut's topic in Buick Riviera
I've been watching this one for a while as a possible driver, but hard to say if it's sold because sometimes people don't take down their ad. It's probably very clean. https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/d/1987-buick-riviera/6270454334.html -
90 Conv in Walsenburg CO, red/tan, 170k, $3k, driver

That's cool! I know the humidity there isn't much more than here in Santa Fe. We dipped to 4% at times back in June and my spray paint jobs dried in a minute or less. -
90 Conv in Walsenburg CO, red/tan, 170k, $3k, driver
vidsal replied to vidsal's topic in Buick Reatta
Salvage yard cars in CO are remarkably clean imo although that definition can vary. They historically haven't used a lot of CaCl2 on their roads, but probably started to use more of it over the years. Cars in the cities will fare worse. I can sometimes put 700 mi on a car in one day so the mileage isn't as much a factor to me. It gets more interesting...this seller seems to have several more besides the blue one seen over the conv, but in different locations maybe. https://pueblo.craigslist.org/cto/d/1989-and-1991-reatta-coupes/6233086855.html Those two are in a double deep -

I apologize if this was posted before...seems like a potential driver for someone. Some years back I would have been driving up there, but my white Reatta Conv is also sitting on some casters in the back of the garage! https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/d/1990-reatta-convertible/6278826102.html

Thanks, I just started looking. My timetable is long so the more info I get on what's out there the better. -

I agree. I was just noticing a pile of LeMans models and GTOs on a few searches.
