Actually, the asking price is $22,000; but I agree, Jake, the seller is away off on pricing. Is this maybe a $7000 car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lrlforfun Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 OK Buick People: I know the owner personally and am somewhat familiar with the car. It's been sitting for 40 years and what ever goes with that is what it's gonna need plus what it needed when retired from service. The body is solid except that hood and the interior is all there , ready for a re-doo. Certainly a worthy candidate to not blow completely apart but to go through bit by bit. It 's gonna take a heap 'a dough to be able to get it to go to the store and back. There's a similar car in So Cal, imported from the Mid-West with power windows and air (not really rusty either) needin' the same thing but running and driving and the seller couldn't get7K. We will see. Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick man Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Agreed ... First take the basic time to get it running and drivable then list price with added zero's. Simple solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60FlatTop Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I'm hoping he gets full asking price. Really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for letting us know. We've seen a number of for-sale ads on Craig's List where the owner deleted the ad. Readers assume the car is sold, but that's not always the case.

lrlforfun Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 OK John: My pal couldn't sell it for the price so he's gonna hang on to it. he swears it's 25K actual and he got it running. He's gonna keep me up to speed on the upgrading. Mitch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
