auburnseeker Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I just saw this ad on Craigslist. It's a pretty darn nice California transplant. I think it's reasonably priced especially given the cost of chroming and interior work to bring a crappy one to this level. https://utica.craigslist.org/cto/d/marcy-1958-buick-2dr-ht/6893886024.html THIS IS THE KING OF CHROME FOR 1958. ORIGINAL CALIFORNIA CAR WITH ALL FACTORY SHEET METAL.EXCELLENT ORIGINAL CHROME AND INTERIOR. POWER BRAKES AND TINTED GLASS.ENGINE RUNS FINE AND TRANSMISSON WORKS SMOOTHLY.THIS IS A TRUE SURVIVOR FROM BUMPER TO BUMPER. POSSIBLE TRADE FOR EARLY MODEL CORVETTE ….1972 OR OLDER....WILL ADD MONEYFOR THE RIGHT CAR. CALL ME ANYTIME BEFORE 9PM FOR MORE DETAILS..THANKS.PS...I DO NOT TEXT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnseeker Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) If I hadn't spent all my money on the garage and had some cash to fill it, I would be looking at this. Problem is i would also be looking at that 61 Bonneville posted. They would look good parked next to one another.

lancemb Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Amazing looking car. Notice the orange sticker on the breather cap, which looks like it's been on there awhile and is original. There has been some debate as whether cars actually had these; looks like they weren't just invented. Still, I've seen a number of original 57-58 Buicks and hadn't seen one before. I wonder if this was a CA thing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 One man I know went to the Power Big Meet a few years ago in Vasteras, Sweden. It is a car show far larger than AACA's Hershey show. There were six 1959 Dodge convertibles there, though the group of owners was trying for 10! He lost count of all the 1958 Buicks he saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 Wonder if my 59 Tbird Convt. was there? It got shipped over to Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thriller Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 On Facebook Marketplace a 1958 Century 4 door hardtop recently popped up. I haven’t seen this car before, so it was a bit of a surprise. The dealer name on the trunk is Dickson Motors, which is local, but hasn’t operated under that name in decades. Bank account got drained today for a car for the youngest while away at school, so it won’t be joining my stable unless perhaps the lottery numbers come up for me tonight...I’d then need to deal with space constraints too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 They just dropped the price to 19,500. Not sure if that's firm or negotiable but that's a darn nice car for under 20G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
