buick man Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 From what we could see of the front interior cordaveen seats they looked in pretty good shape after a good clean up and if the front seats looked that good the rest should most likely look as good. Think this was one of those real good deals that comes along every once in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 A nice car indeed. Wouldn't the terms BILL OF SALE in the ad refer to another lost title situation, with whatever that entails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Cocuzza Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 A nice car indeed. Wouldn't the terms BILL OF SALE in the ad refer to another lost title situation, with whatever that entails?I believe that NY, with a car that old, only used registrations/bill of sales to transfer ownership.

Guest Madmooks Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) finally got my 57 buick caballero rollin. bought this car a while back , did a disc brake conversion, rebuilt the carb, went thru the lines all that. cool wagon to kick around. i wont be restoring it anytime soon, i will be doing an air ride suspension tho. it only has 40k original miles so everything mechanical is in pretty good shape. wont toy with it too much. heres how we found it. and here it is now....

g-g-g0 Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I remember that add. Gave it a fleeting thought and considered where it was and no title so elected to pass. Glad it has found a new home that will give it the TLC that it deserves! Great looking '57! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
