B Jake Moran Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Yes it appears nice. Never seen that upholstery in a 63 Buick but it apparently has only 39,000 miles. What is a good price? His $10,000 seems ok but there is a lot of inventory out there and all of these sorts of cars I have saved on my facebook are not selling. So I am not sure. I agree for him it seems time to sell but it was free - he may have paid estate taxes - for him. Maybe $6,500? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjmarzoli Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Looks like a nice straight car. Very unique sew style. Never seen it before. If anyone is seriously interested I could scope it out- I live locally. I have never seen this car on the road that I can recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesR Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I wonder if that's an original color and what it was called. I think I remember Buicks like this coming in this color, or something similar. Not my favorite hue, but if it's original it should be kept as is. Car looks decent and solid from what I see.

I believe it is an original color and I quite like it. The white roof and beige interior set it off nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodneybeauchamp Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 My 1963 Color and Trim book shows it as Code N Burgundy with optional 836 trim Sandalwood. Pattern appears correct but stand to be corrected Rodney 😀😀😀😀😀😀 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexRiv_63 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I love the "hose it down and quick take the photos" sales tactic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Skelly Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) My Dad ordered a '63 LeSabre two-door hardtop in that color. I drove it as a senior in high school. I'd sure like another one. Edited January 4 by Jim Skelly (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 If I had the choice of this body style or the 1970 we had the 63 would win out. Really like this car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like this car. That's a no contest. Pretty much any brand 1963 car would be more desirable than that same brand's 1970 models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avgwarhawk Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Nice car. I suspect the front seat material is worn. The armrest material is cracked. Other than that....she would be a sweet cruiser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Roth Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 another very decent example, but without A/C- and yes, I know folks felt it wasn't really necessary up north, but I recall sweltering summers up there, as well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to be too nit picky but the engine color is incorrect, is it not supposed to be more of a green and NOT blue .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Y Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 But for the record, I think this is a lot of car for under $10,000. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
