    Column shift, built to race and preserved. Interesting combo for a 72! I'd want to drive it but it looks too nice... o_O

    Amazing piece of Buick racing history.

    Max Damage I'm working on it!

    Wow, that is an amazing museum piece. The engine looks all wrong though? Can someone with more knowledge on that front please weigh in?

    It won't ever drop below $30k because there's a knucklehead in TN that likes '72s and would grab it before it gets that low.

    Don't overlook the side window as well.

    they forgot to hang the: "steal me," sign on it...nice, but a trailer queen. It'll probably end up in one of Jay Leno's aircraft hangars.

    Without the original engine, it REALLY isn't the same record setting car anymore. Just can't see the attraction with the wrong engine, as all the records would have been set with the engine that is not with the car.

    I think its a pretty cool car, but probably at way less than 80k. I don't think its a 35k car either, but I just think like others said, without the original motor, it loses some gusto. Its still a very nice car that seems to be well restored with at least some historic value even without the motor. Not to mention it sounds like the motor that is in it has some cash in it.

    Come on guys ! The Hemi Coronet convertible on Graveyard cars is 1.5 million without the original motor !!! We should be building up our cars instead of putting them down. GEEZ.

    Only one "Big Red". I'd be proud to give it a home.

    I should have bought this car from Jim Haas waaaaay back when he offered it to me, long before it was ever posted for sale, but I thought the price was more than I could swallow, and that price was cheap in hind sight
