    Yes'sir - I found it in a sleepy little town in CT. with the odo reading 46K and bought it from the 81 yr old original owner named Mary. Ad in the paper read:

    I was home recovering form knee surgery so I had time on my hands and was doing lots of searching. Being the ad was so descriptive :puzzled: I figured I'd call and see if there was any more info, like what kind of buick, for starters

    Me: Hello ? Im calling about the Buick for sale
    Mary: Huh ? I dont want to buy another buick
    Me: No, Im calling about the car YOU have for sale. Are you selling a 1969 Buick ?
    Her: I dont know ... maybe my brother put an ad in the paper. he took my license away a few months ago.
    Me: Do you own a 69 Buick ?

    ... and thats when she perked up a bit and told me about her car :laugh:
