http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/car/717885179.html I've decided to sell my "spare" 59 buick. Price is not firm
I actually reslisted it. I have no clue why it got flagged. I want $750 for it. Up for trades for cars or parts.
Damn maybe they pulled it again. Here it is before I bought it. Not much has changed but it's been cleaned up a little bit. No motor or tranny but otherwise complete. The trim is worth more than the whole car. It's in pretty good shape. Tje bumpers are decent. The interior is shot. The body is decent with minimal whiskey dents and some rust in the rear 1/4s.
It's currently for sale. $500 it's in South Texas in New Braunfels. I told one guy he could have it for $450 if he got it by thursday but I don't know if that will work out. I paid $500 for it and I'd rather keep it than lose money but I'm going to look at a '62 Catalina on Thursday and I could use the cash. It's on ebay if you want to check it out. I'm surprised so many people are watching it but no one has pulled the trigger yet. Oh well, it looks cool sitting in my yard...
Also saw ur 67 you found on Ebay. Sellin both to get that Catalina? BTW, that 59' is pretty sweet lookin. And for $500, id buy it if i was closer
Yeah, I kind of saved the '59 from the crusher. I didn't really need it since I already had a '59 Electra. They are very cool cars and I wasn't hurting for the money at the time so I bought it. The '67 I bought spur of the moment when I wasn't even looking for another project. I told myself "Don't buy it unless it's super solid and does not need any rust repair." That's how I eneded up with that one. The Catalina is a 389 3 speed on the floor with a 3.23 rear end. I want to make it a dual quad 421/ 4 speed car. Kind of like a super duty clone but not really a clone just build it how I want to build it. I think the '67 is a little too new for me anyway. I love that body style though. If it doesn't sell I'll fix it up eventually.
id buy that 59' right now if you lived within reasonable distance. dont have anything to drop in it , but id save for a decent drivetrain. but its cool to look at in the meantime :TU:
I was going to throw a 59 pontiac motor with a 4 speed in it but I decided it's not worth the effort since I already have a '59 Electra. Some guy is supposed to pick this car up tomorrow. We'll see if he shows. I just hope he doesn't part it out. I could have done that
