    OK V8 Buick People: This car's been for sale before. I suspect it's still around due to the price as it looks really good. Although not hard loaded, a custom bench, power windows and air give it high marks in the option department. The paint might be as it looks in the pictures or with some messaging could be spectacular. The caps and wheel treatment? No big deal.

    No matter,. As always.... look at it, drive ir, GET IT UP IN THE AIR. The seller's got "make an offer' so perhaps he's motivated. Mitch

    I really like the color. Wish I had the money and space. My dad had a 67 Wildcat conv. It was a rust bucket, but it ran well.:)

    OK Kooch: Price. If it had a little more gingerbread and whatever.....still price. I think he's way high but I'm not a motivated prospect so that throws my creadability out the window. haha Mitch

    Because people watch too much internet. Everyone thinks their car is goldmine. Plain and simple.

    I think it was $16k. Don't quote me though. ;)

    If I was going to sell my 66 wildcat, I would probably ask 5 or 6k for it. That is with a rebuilt engine, transmission, all new wiring, and all new suspension and brakes. The body is pretty good until you get the quarter panels. They are pretty rough haha. It's a 4 door hardtop, so not as desirable for sure.

    That one is a bit of a conundrum. Yes rattle can everything and an inch of dust on the center council (honestly they couldn't take a rag and wiped it down for the picture? It would have taken like 1 minute). Yet there has been some work done to it. Lots of new looking stuff on the underside and newish headers.

    Definately has had a lot of work. Shame they wrecked it. Looks to need a complete front clip. It is down to 8k now.

    The Wildcat looks above average for a restoration. I know I would like console and Buckets but at $16,500 and I assume some negotiation you could be in a good space. You cant pay some one to do the work shown staring with a #3 or #4 2 door car and end up in the same result. Now if you have the facilities and the skill you might be able to get close. You cant really compare a 4 door value to a 2 door value in my opinion.
