    NOT MINE
    1976 Buick Estate Wagon "Fresh Barn Find" Low Miles Exc. cond. many options 1 Owner with title
    FOR SALE: 1976 Buick Estate Wagon "Fresh Barn Find" 65,616 original one owner miles in Exc. survivor cond. many options with clear title. Running when pulled in a new barn built in 1983, and kept there until mid October 2013 (30 years resting). The survivor was pushed outdoors beside the barn, and owners have not attempted to start the car. I am including a attachment of the car's build sheet that come with car. Car was built in June 1976, and sold here in Morgantown, WV 26505 by Chittum Buick. The original West Virginia title was issue 08/11/76. The family owning the car has decide to clear the barn, and I am posting it here as Buick Club Member to see if it can be saved by a fellow Buick enthusiast as opposed to the common fate of big Buick tanks ending up as "Demo Derby" participants. As stated the car is located here in Morgantown, WV 26505. VIN # 4R35Y6X165222


    As you can see, an aftermarket CB radio was installed from the 1970's era, and detachable microphone and cord is included in the glove compartment. I have taken several photos of the interior, exterior, undercarriage, and engine compartment. The last oil change was performed on 11/03/1982 at 63,689 miles (very ironic being that it is 31 years to the day I shot these photos on 11/03/2013 to advertise the car for the owners). Oil dipstick shows oil at full mark. Tires can be inflated but are 30+ years old with good tread. They were inflated to move the car out of the barn, and currently after 2 weeks only one went flat. The rear clam shell tailgate does function when tested after removing from barn by attaching a jump cable to current battery connection. Car was originally Ziebart Rust Protected which appears to help preserve the body. Body is straight, with only slight rock chips on lower outer driver door skin as shown in photo that has begun to have small rust specs, and also on lower passenger rear quarter panel. It would be an easy shop fix as beige color would be easy to match. Car has not been cleaned, washed, or waxed during removal. A light wash and detail, and she will sparkle once again!


    Asking price for this 5200 lb. touring vehicle powered by Buick's 455 cu in. engine is a reasonable $2,000 cash. Selling parties are not interested in trades of any type. It is the buyer's responsibility to arrange, and provide transport of vehicle. Once again, car has been in storage 30 years, and will not be started by owners. Thus it is sold as is, where is. Car is positioned for easy loading by your transport. Would make a perfect vehicle for carting your NOS buick parts to Buick National swap meets! Car is also for sale locally. If car sales locally, then ad will be pulled from forum.

    Please contact Barry Smith at Lee66Riv@yahoo.com with your questions, and I will forward your comments, or put serious buyers in contact with the owners. My inspection has only seen two things missing from the car...the driver's original rubber floor mat, and the wheel covers. Seats upholstery,and headliner are in excellent clean condition with no smells of storage. Steering wheel rubber/vinyl is not sticky as often is found on cars of this vintage if left outdoors.
