Lark303505 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I had one of these in HS and I am trying to get a hold of one again. If anyone knows anyone selling one, please advise and maybe the Buick gurus can advise whether or not other years like 78 or 77 are basically the same car or if they aren’t etc. My Buick was light blue with a medium blue 2 tone paint job, miss it very much! 508 310 3599 I also have an 83 Monte SS I can use for trade if anyone is into that….thank you! My 79 had the V8 but I’m curious what folks think are better the Turbo V6 or the V8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 The turbo V6 was still very primitive at that time, but it would be interesting. IDK how far back you'd have to go on the Forums to find it, but there's been discussion on these cars down in the Buick forums. Trying to remember if these were buckets and console cars like their contemporary Oldsmobile Holiday 88. That's been a bucket list car for me for years but most got rode hard and put up wet.

John_S_in_Penna Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Welcome to the forum, Mr. or Mrs. Lark! For a better response to your want ad, you should post it in the specific "Buick Buy/Sell" category. Just scroll down the long list of topics, and you'll see it among various buy-sell categories. Or use this link: https://forums.aaca.org/forum/12-buick-buysell/ And be sure to make your topic heading specific, such as, "WANTED: 1977-79 Buick LeSabre Sport Coupe." Those cars aren't seen very much in the hobby. Your search may be long, or you may find one next week. The hobby seems to latch onto certain models, and they're lovingly preserved and become common-- such as 1963-65 Rivieras and 1980-85 Rivieras-- while other models slowly disappear unnoticed. All the best to you in your search! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) Garrett, on the Hemmings Motor News internet site, there are currently two LeSabre coupes for sale. They are 1978 and 1979, though not "Sport Coupes." Even LeSabre coupes of 1977-79 aren't commonplace. Maybe one of these will suit you; or at least you can look at them for comparison: https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/buick/lesabre/2609207.html https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/buick/lesabre/2603178.html Edited September 5, 2022 by John_S_in_Penna (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
