Wow! That does look pretty nice!

That is as complete a '67 as I have ever seen. Not a piece out of place that I can tell.

 

Wrong radio, missing the shift lever knob. Body looks solid though, some rust on frame. Shouldn't have speakers on the parcel shelf or whatever is hanging from the rear view mirror. HA HA!

 

What do you suppose that red-capped resivoir is? aftermarket coolant overflow I'm guessing?

 

My guess is overflow reservoir. The overflow has to go all the way across the radiator

 

...never got a call from the seller today to set up an inspection... hmmmm.

Looks like the wrong antenna also.

 

X2 x2 x2 wow

 

Hate 2 see cars going over seas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ya.. I understand.. unfortunately, international buyers have MONEY to spend. :bglasses:

Eitherway, I have some details about this car. The car is owned by a local 'prominent Scandanavian businessman' I've known for a few years. At my invite, he's shown up at one or two of our Skylark Drive Buick Club, Cruisin' Tampa Bay meetings.

I didnt recognize the car at first, because I've never actually seen it in person. For 8 years, this GS has been stored inside one of his many HUGE furniture warehouses along with several other collectible cars.

He has contracted an "employee" of his bidness to sell the car for him... this guy is supposedly a car buff in charge of maintaining his fleet of vehicles. o No:

Early this morning I sent an email direct to the owner, basically going around this 'car~buff employee' and hopefully, the owner and/or the seller will finally get back to me so I can inspect it.

THANK ALL OF YOU for your input bringing up some concerns to take a look at.

I will keep ya posted.

Why? Most of our out of country members have some pretty nice cars.Better than letting it sit here doing nothing.

 

The antenna base is definitely wrong, should be a tear drop shaped chrome piece.

 

Very nice for a GOLD flavored car....:laugh:

Nice car, but I'm not too keen on the gold.

 

RED LINE TIRES would do SOOOO much for the overall looks of this car!!! :TU:

 

Whats going on with the drivers rear lower quarter, and why doesn't the shape of the bumper cut out fit the shape of the bumper???? Should come straight down and match the bumper, but it looks like it angles toward the rear tire?

If it hasn't been patched, and patched wrong, then its an optical illusion?

 

Good eye Tom, it's missing the correct curve above the body line too. it's obviously a bad previous repair

compare the two pictures and the flaw is clear
