    Maybe there are already some v8buick board members on the way, to pick it up. :laugh:
    This deal really sounds too good to be true. Is there anybody who gave this guy already a call?

    Sorry, ive just seen it. I was too slow with my posting, always try to find the correct wording, so it always takes longer for me to create a posting. :ball: Need to learn better english.

    Theres a 72 Stage 1 hardtop auto on Ebay right now that's done. You'd be better off getting a finished one, so if anyone was interested in this one and planned on restoring it, check it out over there. ( I'm computer illiterate, thats why I didn't put up the link. Sorry! One of these days I'll learn.)

    Yep. I don't think you could whip the one on CL into shape for that price. Already frame-offed and looks nice.

    he was an extremely nice guy to deal with, I just found the build sheet for the car apove the gas tank :eek2: .... not in the best of shape but it will do lol


    I was having second thoughts when I bought the car but I figured for the money it would, - NEVER - not be worth that much speically with all the options

    Glad someone picked it up to restore. I looked at it the same day and it is worth that in parts alone. The Vintage Red color is sharp. A BIG project, but a nicely optioned stage car for sure. Best of luck with the resto.

    Eric , Steve told me you looked at it before i got there, Why didnt you buy the car besides how bad the body was.

    I didn't like the Jim Smith Chevy sticker on the N25 bumper..:grin:
    Just more of a project than I have time for right now. You can certainly get your money back in the parts there- just would be a shame. Would be a labor of love to bring back, but a super rare car. I think only 3 Framingham GS's built in that color. I hope you restore it.
