  20. I am thinking about buying this Buick century 1955 project. Engine runs and transmission shifts but leaking oil extensively. Couldn’t tell where the leaks come from and I have to buy the car as is. There is no way I can take it to a shop to assess condition of both engine and transmission before buying it if it’s moving like in this video of the car attached , should that b a good sign and go ahead buying it or it could be much worse without me realizing it. Can any one give me his thoughts from what he is seeing in video ? Thanks
