    wheelz 'B' is for Buick.

    Guys..I just visited a fello who has a few Buick projex he's now giving up on. :Dou: This one, is a nice, fairly solid 1940 Special, has a ton of original parts stuffed inside, the fenders and body appear rustfree and straight! The chassis looks OK, the original straight 8 runs, ruff but runs. No noises. Doesnt move. Dynaflow maybe plugged up?? I dunno. Anyway, the owners son is selling it for his dad... The son is asking, what I THINK is a pretty reasonable $1200 for this 1940 Special. Anyone interested in PARTS? Or perhaps the entire car? Contact me for details! :TU: Wheelz, Tampa Bay

    You might post this on the Buick Club of America web site. They seem to have a good following for these older Buicks.
