    WOW,Can't beat that deal! I hate seeing '67's going that cheap, unless of course I was the one buying it.

    @ $19,500, the missing air cleaner assembly = reflects approximately 10% the value of the car.

    Did the original owner buy the car a second time in 1986?

    Looks like a bargain. I'd be buying if it were here in the NE.

    I was confused reading that and still am.

    The seller seems to be very proud of the original documentation he has from all the way back in 1986.

    I’ve been collecting parts for one for many years so I have everything but the 19k:D

    That’s a great deal!

    Was there an hour ago - just forwarded to a friend and it’s gone. Looked like a deal.

    BUQUICK I'm your huckleberry.

    That's a cool '67. If it it's a good as it appears in the photos it's not surprising that the ad is gone so quickly.

    Sure, these could all have been added but things that caught my eye:
    -A correct appearing disc brake set-up (1-year-only, brass Kelsey Hayes hold off valve, small-hole '67 brake booster, "fat" disc brake master cylinder, and disc brake wheels)
    -Tach in the console
    -Rear window defogger switch
    -Head rests
    -Tilt steering column
    -If black is the original color, that's seldom-seen (2% of '67 Buicks were painted black).
