FREE -ish!!!! I have a '51 Buick Special 4 door in good running condition with good body, interior, and paint (some issues but all original). It was my great-grandmothers and has been in the family since it was first purchased, I would like to give it to someone that will appreciate it and enjoy it. I became keeper of the car 7 years ago and totally unqualified for the job...and I am downsizing. Please come rescue this wonderful car and give it a good, loving home. It is located in Oklahoma (Lawton). If you are willing to pay for transport or come pick it up, and title transfer costs, it's yours. First come, first serve (and a little interview to know that it's going to a good home). Text me at 503.830.5561 for more information.

Marty Roth Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Sent you text and left voicemail. Son-in-law is VP of our AACA Chapter, and along with my daughter who grew up in the hobby, would be an excellent caretaker for this lovely and apparently solid Buick ith a nice history They are excited to hear back from you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJinOKC Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hello Everyone, The Buick has been spoken for. I am sure you will see it in prime condition at a meet-up or show soon. Thank you all for your interest and passion in finding a home for this family heirloom. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Chris, who works for me, picked it up today. He is thrilled with it--his first old Buick. Looks like 48,000 actual miles. We have it at the Buick National Meet in Midwest City today; might even enter it for judging--it is that nice. I did my good deed. I helped a young, 30-something guy get started in the old Buick hobby. Pete Phillips 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Jake Moran Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 I was crossing my fingers that you picked the car up. This is a win all around. That's a beautiful car, and much better than anyone could have imagined. Did I see a manual transmission pedal in there? Wow what a find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Standard shift, original trunk mat and cardboard panels in good shape, original rubber floor mat in good shape, Chris bought a new 6-volt battery for it and got it running and driving around the national meet parking lot this afternoon. Engine sounds very good, no smoke, good oil pressure, oil change sticker from 20 years ago shows 45,000 miles, has 48,000 today and I am absolutely convinced it is the original mileage. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I personally looked at this car and it is an excellent first car for someone wanting to get in the hobby. Didn't see it running [or driving] but in my opinion just clean it up and wax it and drive it. Paint is good enough, interior very nice. Great car to have... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
