Hi all, I've been in love with 56 Buicks for a long while and I think I've found a good car that I'm very interested in getting. It is located in Monroe, Wisconsin and I am hoping to find someone in the area who would be willing (for a fee) to go take a look and make sure its on the up and up and as pictured/advertised. Any ideas? My cars: 59 Chevy Apache Truck (restored) 57 Chevy Cameo (restored) 57 Bel Air 2 Dr HT (I got it back in running order, needs a total restoration but I'm having fun driving it around as is) 57 Corvette (total basket case project, I've got the frame done) I had always wanted a 58 Impala too but I saw 56 Buick Century in California some time back and fell in love. I've let a few projects slip by over the years but I've decided I just want a nice car that I get to enjoy now and maybe improve. I've always been hung up on two doors but over time, I've grown on the 4 dr Buick which is what this car is.

What services has anyone used? With my work restrictions due to COVID, there is no way I can go myself without talking 14 days off using my leave time or no pay for going out of local area.
Post a thread on here with a title like "Anyone in the Monroe, WI area that can look at a car" and you may have some luck. Guys on here are pretty helpful although may/may not be knowledgeable about 50's cars. Nice looking car and IIRC the Century back then was one of the fastest cars around.
