    Cliff Ruggles 850 CFM quadrajet

    Other maintenance:

    Fuel lines tank to carb

    Front and rear shocks

    Rear coil springs, rear track bushings

    All brakes have been gone through, new master cylinder, rehoned wheel cylinders, recut drums. Stops very well

    NOS dash pad

    Sway bar endlinks and bushings

    Repacked wheel bearings

    12v outlet in cigarette lighter

    Installed mechanical oil pressure gauge and electronic tach

    Adjustable rev limiter set for 5700 rpm

    Fully replaced steering linkages and box

    Rebuilt stock ac Delco starter

    Transgo Shift kit in the ST400

    New transmission filter

    Billet inline fuel filters, 10 micron and 40 micron

    I probably forgot everything else, so ask me about it...


    Body:

    9/10

    No rust in the quarters

    Two body mounts need some love, but not necessary


    Paint:

    6/10

    Original paint, evidence of a clear coat administered at some point


    Racing results:

    13.865 @ 98.74 mph

    Definitely has 13.5s in it with a better track day, and 13.2s with a better torque converter (which is for sale with the car, I haven’t installed it yet)


    Bottom line:

    Rare car, enough power to get wherever you want, fast. Excellent comfort and excellent ride.

    PM me with offers as well. Also looking to get into a Skylark, GS-350, GS-400, pretty much any Buick A-Body.

    Especially with how everything is slow at the moment maybe even till the end of the year.

    At least thats how it is down here in the panhandle. But if your not hurting for it and can sit on it by all means enjoy the car while you still have it.

    Turned out to be the hardest tire kicker I’ve ever dealt with, probably broke his toe he kicked so hard.

    Should I upgrade it over the winter once more to enjoy it in the spring? I know if I do that it'll be hard to get rid of.

    The way I see it IF you put more money into it this winter you will never get that money back.... Thats all up to you Sell or Keep...
    Cars of this vintage unless its mustang or camaro dont sell as they did in the past. FWIW those (((<<<< pony cars)))) their not a hot seller either..
