lancemb Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Seat upholstery is not original, and the stainless trim is missing off the front seat backs; I hope they saved that somewhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireballV8 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 This sounds very fishy. The pictures were definitely not taken in Harbor City CA and the ad doesn't match the car very well. I would approach this one with caution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancemb Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 The Ebay ad shows some pretty heavy-duty rust underneath 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smartin Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Yeah. I think I remember seeing pics of this underneath when the previous owner had it. Sure it tempting for a coupe. Bummer they missed the boat so bad on the door panels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick man Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Trick or Treat ! Ah Come on guys don't be so picky picky ... Personally don't see anything wrong with the car and a R.M. Coupe too other than it is missing the wing nut on the air cleaner. 🤢 Ya gotta love the easy pull-up antenna and that easy fill fuel port kinda reminds me of early beach running Nascars. Air conditioned because it no doubt has been well conditioned in the open air and we might suspect that fork lift is standing-by to move the car back into it's storage spot.

Pete Phillips Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I really like this car. Everything under the hood looks correct and in its place. Have to wonder about that Flight Pitch Dynaflow, though. Does it work properly? Someone has tried to maintain this car over the years. Could even be the original paint and does not appear to have ever been wrecked. The missing rear bumper pieces are in the trunk. Yes, the upholstery and part of the door panels have been redone. It's a driver-quality car, and you would have the only one at any local, regional, and perhaps even national meet. The price has been lowered to a more realistic figure, assuming it runs and drives well. What's not to like about this? I have a soft spot for all '58 Buicks since the very first old car I ever bought in 1977 was a '58 Buick. Man, I DO NOT need another old car, but this one is really, really tempting!

Smartin Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 "never restored" ....but it's had upholstery work done, and the lower sections of the car have been (loooooong ago) rust repaired. Never restored = survivor (to me). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never restored = survivor (to me). Does that mean you're not allowed to repair damage and wear? Unfortunately terminology like this can be vey subjective.
