  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

1967 Special

    I don't have the required books to decode this car. I've got 1970-72 stuff. Current owners Mom bought it new. He's thinking of selling and wants to find a good home.

    I know it's nothing special but it is all original and unrestored, so it has some value to it. He says it run and drives. I haven't see the car in person. Supposed to have about 80K on it. And I suppose a guess about current value would good too.

    Thanks in advance for the assistance

    Update,

    I went and looked at the car. It was at night after work and not in a place where I could get good pictures anyway. However, I did confirm a couple of things that answer some questions. !) it is a 340-4v car, it is a 2-speed automatic transmission and it is indeed a low mileage original car with no visible rust on the body panels. The topside is in great shape. I suspect the bottom is in similar shape. So what is a reasonable price for a original unmolested low mileage car that has been in the same family since new? I'd give a #3 on the 0 to 6 scale or a 2- on the 1 to 5 scale.

    I don't have all the information but I will give you what I have.
    VIN 435697Z 16320
    4 Means Buick
    35 means Special Deluxe
    69 means 4 door Special thin pillar sedan
    7 Means model 67
    Z means it was built at the Fremont CA plant

    All I really know about the rest is the paint color

    All I know, I assume the bottom is green and the top is white?

    I'd like to see the pictures and hear the price. I like the 67s
