MrEarl Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Pretty clean wagon. Look at that wood-grain vinyl. Lots of pictures, a feature of Bring a Trailer I really like. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1988-buick-lesabre/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suchan Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Love seeing clean station wagons, and this is a pretty one. With a 140 HP motor, it's a lot of car to haul around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a 140 HP motor, it's a lot of car to haul around. Me too Suchan. I'm a bit surprised at the low horsepower and torque numbers of 140 and 255 in a big B-body like this. Stock specs on my '79 403 are 185 hp and 320 and I suspect I gained a few when I removed all the smog stuff. I was lucky to have found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 These are nice, quiet, comfortable, good looking, roomy, well-appointed cars. But if you've ever driven one with that 307 cu. in. 140 h.p. engine, they are pretty anemic in performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmfconsult Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Just a little over 2 hours left and bidding at over $6900 now. It will be interesting to see where this goes. I really enjoy driving my 78 EW around with the Buick 350, it has just enough power to do what I need it to do. I don't think I'd like towing anything with the A/C on though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmfconsult Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 $7100 final price. Not bad considering the condition. Perhaps it's time to polish up the 78 and take some nice photos! 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEarl Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 That 307 really hurts the prices on these. I wouldn’t let my tow wagon go for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
