    Someone did a lot of work on those dash overlays

    AS noted, this is one of the repop front emblems. The woodgrain on the dash is awful. The color exterior color is off as well. I think this car may be a 20 footer and certainly not worth anywhere near the admission price. Oh, and no power window's is a buzzkill for sure

    I can understand for a purest how some of the shortcomings would be a turn off but other than the engine & compartment the car looks very nice. If the car checks out considering what body, paint & interior work costs today I don't think its unfairly priced.

    I like the more modern burlwood look of the dash trim...taste is subjective. I'm not crazy about the simulated wood trim Buick was so fond of back then.

    True

    I lucky found a NOS housing and emblem on e bay a few years back

    Installed it for the BPG meet in Columbus
    And it was so brittle it broke ......

    I bought the emblem magic repop housing after that and used the nos emblem

    For $23,000 and as nice as the body and paint work is ,couldn't they detail the engine compartment?

    ...and add air too while they're at it.

    It's a very pretty car. Love the colour, and the interior colour. Works with the lines of the car. Don't care much for the applique on the dash, but that's easily changed. I much prefer the brushed steel look the 69 had. Wheels; again, an easy fix. What's too bad is that it's a low option car and that the owner didn't finish the detailing. Did he run out of money which is why he's selling it now?

    I just don't understand IF your going to the extent of making the outside pretty and the interior pretty, WHY cant they at least by a couple cans of black paint and clean up the engine bay. The motor itself seems freshly painted. A pretty car with a horrible engine bay will turn me off so quick.
