for the buick lovers, i am looking to purchase a 1973 buick century from california has 350 in it and 52000 miles on car. it is supposed to be rust free and in excellent condition.heres my question iam paying 3500.00 for car and 600.00 to ship it to wisconsin.am i nuts or do you think car is worth it.thanks Ray ________ BRUNETTE MOVIES
Hey Ray, heard your story about the one in SD. That SUCKS. Any interest in a '73 Regal with a 455? Another board member has one in CA, and for a lot less than 3500. As it is a Regal, it would have the formal roof line, not the large rear quarter windows.
$4100 for a roadworthy car in excellent shape sounds like a decent deal to me ... especially if it's something you want. but if the market won't support that price (see thumper's post) who am i to argue?
if the car is in pristine condition i think it would be worth it. here is the 73 i found locally for $500.. granted that's pretty cheap but the car does have it's downsides, like little dents all over the place (the decklid got hit at some point and buckled a little bit). it had a little over 80,ooo original miles.. we did work on it but now i need to sell it. but it seems like 73+ buicks pop up on craigslist all the time for pretty damn cheap.. at least on the seattle or portland sites
i wanted a gs but i will take what i can find, this car was on ebay highest bid being 1800.00 i went to 3000.00 still didnt meet reserve. called them and aske d them what did they have to have.52000 miles original ,looks flawless, hopefully is when i get it, interior looks mint, under doors rust free, engine compartment clean as a whistle.one owner.when i get it ill let yah no if there was any surprises. color is not favorite but rims and tires on it would do a world of difference plus the 455 im putting in it. will be a nice sleeper with the air on. hehe.thanks Ray ________ red head girl Webcam
I just keep thinking about the 73GS 455 4spd Blk/wht bucket seats car I saw for sale a couple years ago that I didn't bite on. I'm not nuts on the Kojak body style but it's growing on me the more you guys talk about it.
