SpecialEducation Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Auctioneer states the VIN as 193205http://www.sundgren.com/vintage-cars-trucks-carriage-and-antiques-eureka-kansas/ My dad would be all over this, but I need to dispose of some parts cars before making any new acquisitions because we are spilling into the street. I have an obligation in Oklahoma City that day, or I'd probably go just to see what it sells for... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Thanks for posting. Why are all the nice ones over a 1000 miles away. It will be interesting to know what it goes for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always, but they are only close when you don't have the money or a place to put it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest camaroguy Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 OK, guys what do you think it should bring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Wiegand Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 The D-55 Buick brought $21,000.00 plus a 3% buyers premium. Gregg Lange is going to find out on Monday who the new owner is and where the car will be going. He keeps a pretty detailed roster of the known D-55's and D-54's. I sure would like to know where the people who are always saying that the values on the OLD cars are way down are getting their information from. I sure didn't see it here. This car was a way back restoration that was still presentable and would be considered a '40-footer'. I spoke with Gregg earlier in the week and asked him if he knew if the car still ran. He was unsure. Terry WiegandSouth Hutchinson, Kansas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest camaroguy Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I bought it for a client. It will eventually be in a museum in Oklahoma. I'll keep ya posted. So I can stand the criticism. Tell me High or low on the purchase. It went for more than my initial estimate but so did 36 Ford Cabriolet, $55K and the 07 that was actually an 09 Jewel, $27.5K.I had the Buick At $15+- a couple grand36 Ford at $30 +- a couple grand07/09 Jewel $25+- a couple grand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialEducation Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 Not that i'm an expert on this vintage of Buick, or conducted a thorough inspection on the car, but assuming the drive train is complete & correct, I would have expected it to go for $20-$25k, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 At that price depending on how it was mechanically it was a reasonable price. You will find many more D45s. Not so with D-55s. Not that I could afford it. Terry had been working with me about an E-45 near him. Still over 1,200 miles away. Today I looked at a 1927-24 Roadster. "Barn find" with a 60 year old fix up restoration requiring a total re-do. Only 25 miles away. Too much work and not enough room to do it right.
