Guest Rob McDonald Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Car was destroyed from moving it around and didn't feel safe trying to transport it. Took some essential pieces off and let the rest go. Here is a picture of how bad it was ...I have most everything to put this old girl back together.MATT, I'm confused. Did you not pick up the remains of that convertible? Which "old girl" is being saved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackofalltrades70 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 RobI 'picked' as many parts as I could get off of the car. The car was really too far gone. I was able to get almost all of the parts that I needed to put the car together that this thread is about. I still need to find a front seat. John DeFiore was nice enough to help me out when I went to try and pick up the car. Was a great day with a fellow Buickman!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-tank Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 MATT, I'm confused. Did you not pick up the remains of that convertible? Which "old girl" is being saved? You need to go back to post#24. This ain't the first time Matt has confused me too.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackofalltrades70 Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Brought it home today. Will try to gather up all the bits and pieces. The car is complete, except for the seats. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackofalltrades70 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) As everyone will remember, JohnD and I went to pick up a parts car in NY for this project and Someone had stole some parts off of it. Here's the steering wheel on ebay with the column cut in half.........http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=181520600069 Wouldn't trust this seller very far. I sent him a crappy message also to let him know how I feel about thieves!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited September 10, 2014 by jackofalltrades70 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnD1956 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 That sure is positive ID on that wheel. I posted a statement to the seller tonite. Unsure if it will appear on e bay or not. It is just sad that so many people have disregard for any type of honor system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackofalltrades70 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Thanks John. It's like taking your car to a show and hoping someone doesn't steal your ashtrays.......the deal was if a car had a name on it, you were supposed to leave it alone as it was spoken for. Sure would like to find the tub surround stainless also......Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
