trimacar Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Well, interesting car, but how can they say original with that awful JoAnn fabrics interior? Looks like a solid car that has nothing wrong with it a lot of work wouldn't fix.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiKi5156B Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I’ve commented on this many times before,original to someone who, never had a number crunched resto, or a 100% untouched original just sees it as an old original car. Looking at this car, an old black Buick with a straight 8, to a non Buick person it would appear to be original. A knowledgeable buyer would be able to inform the seller what’s right and what’s not.Take the sellers description with a grain of salt and have fun with what’s presented. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car has nice lines, could be a lot of fun to own too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Shame they used the wrong material, as it looks like whoever did the work, was pretty competent. Better than a blanket over springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuickBob49 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Could it be tired original fabric that didn't photograph well? Edited March 29, 2018 by BuickBob49 Clarification (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was originally thinking the same thing, but the color looks off compared to other panels and there doesn't seem to be more wear on the driver's side where they always wear more. One could hope.

60FlatTop Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 "Good morning Dear, now that you bought your first old car, did you have a good time at the Cruise In last night?" That's a pretty nice car. I could get to like it pretty quick. Bernie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
