OK V-8 Buick people: It's been for sale for a long time. The money is way too high. I would like to own this car for the right money. This car could be worth a little more running. So why isn't is running? Could it be.... Locked up? The seller is too lazy to get it running? The seller knows the engine is clunked out and merely avoids that insignificant fact by saying that it's just not running? There are people on the planet that might have the true answer as we all could understand it but they haven't come forth yet. Mitch
The seller is American Restorations in Homer Glen, IL. I don't think they are lazy they just buy them low and sell them high and hope that you pay 60K plus for a restoration. http://www.americanautorestoration.com/classiccartrucksales.html I don't think the price is too high. You don't see many around here unless someone is collecting them for lawn ornanments in their back yard and if that is the case who cares it it runs! This place gets and sells allot of decent cars from out west. By far not cheap though on nicer cars.
Not over priced by my standards. I paid more for my running 60 wagon. However, mine does not have AC and needs a lot of sheetmetal replacement.
Even if the motor is a boat anchor it isn't a bad deal. But, you've got to like wagons, and there aren't many people who do yet. I'd buy it, but the wife would probably have me taken out and shot because she absolutely hates wagons. She sold my 68 Sportwagon out from under me when I was away once. (A case of misunderstanding; I'd said "if someone offers X for it, it's gone", and so she went out and found that someone) That wagon is nicely equiped; not too many came with A/C or power windows. Besides the usual wheel-well rust, it looks pretty straight. Downside? It'd be a pretty expensive resto, there are a lot of "one-year-only" things in that car. The return on investment would be nil.
:gp: Thanks> 445 < 401 torque rating . I knew that. I guess i mis-read it. Where're my glasses!!:bglasses:
