    While searching on Ebay, came upon this rarity. A 1973 Regal 455 (U) coupe...I have a Buick Century 455 (U) coupe with opera windows in need of restoration. Seller claims to have the heavy duty suspension and differential to GS. My car does not. Claims "I have been told that there were 99 or less with this package produced." Asked seller to post picture of window sticker to verify options. Comments.

    Pretty cool, but...no original motor makes it worth next to nothing, and it's pretty rough to boot. You would play HELL trying to find ANY parts for that thing...PASS.

    Sure seems the car is now on another CRAIGSLIST ad with that asking price. Ebay highest bid for the car was $1625. This was exactly 2x less what is currently being asked. As a project car, the Ebay price is more reasonable.

    Too much money. It's about a $1500 car.
