lancemb Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 The odometer shows 45k, not 54k as stated. Bonus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 It hasn't been that rainy in NY. You couldn't take a picture of it on a dry day? They say never buy a car in the rain. The saying probably also applies to never go look at a car that they felt compelled to take photos of only in the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Give the seller a break! Maybe the only day he had off of work happened to be a rainy day. Car looks like a very nice, unmolested, low-mileage Buick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Seems alot of people do this or just wash the car and take a shot with the water all over it. It's been for sale for almost a month. Time for some new photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuickBob49 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) Good wax job! Water beading up on it. Nice car! Someone here in Portland, OR, has a very nice 1963 Buick wagon with the same color combination.

Drew Donesomore Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) Well...I caved and purchased this car. Paid a premium but what the heck. This car is gorgeous. Nothing has been touched. I am smitten. The N7 air option listed on the bill of sale is for air cooling, not air conditioning. The mileage seems true. 45k! She has a great profile, drives like a dream after new tires. Great find! Love my Buicks.

Needs front end work, new tires all around, new rubber seals all around, the door and window mechanics need to be refreshed, the radio needs work. The bill of sale shows air conditioning but that's been pulled out, which also means the dash was replaced (standard no air dash). The bench seat needs to be refurbished. It looks good but is super soft and sinks. Needs a new muffler and a tuneup. Overall Not too shabby. Love my Buicks. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is highly unusual for someone to remove and replace all the dash related AC components just to be thorough after removing the underhood parts. A pic of the Fisher Body tag above the brake master might tell if AC was factory installed. Nice car! Tom Mooney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Drew, did you buy the car just recently? That would mean 15 months after the car was advertised. It's not unusual for a car still to be available long after an ad expires, and that's one benefit of our "Not Mine" section. Glad to hear the car has a new home! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Donesomore Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Thanks all for the feedback and suggestions. She’s hibernating right now. Can’t wait for the weather to warm up so we can take her out again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
