lancemb Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 This seems like about the 3rd 57 we've seen in a short time with this color on it. Looks like a good, original car, but need to know more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't bother selling smalls on ebay anymore. Most things I give to the thrift store and get a receipt for taxes. Unfortunately there is no car part charity store, the local pull-a-part won't give me a write off for turning in good stuff. I gave my whole building of parts to one guy for almost nothing. He came from Ohio to get them, good luck to him! Edited May 19, 2023 by NC-car-guy (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can hire disabled veterans and the people making donations get a receipt for the full value of the parts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW , I bet it would draw a crowd at a Buick event Bill Yea unfortunately seems hard to sell. I love the color, don't see that at shows often. Looks like it has A/C vents, but no under-hood pics. Underside of the car looks very clean, but the description is poor at best. Maybe I'm not a pro ebayer but how does the seller have 700 feedback ratings and only 1 item sold? Generally on a big ticket item, you want to see more feedback and a much better write up. Feels suspicious.
