    1985 Buick T-Type, off white, blue cloth interior in good condition, needs some body work and maybe a new hood. Low mileage 455 (guy I bought it from said ~1500-3000 miles) with Stg. 1 heads, 200-4R transmission, aluminum radiator w/dual electric fans and aluminum shroud, edelbrock valve covers, dual exhaust w/dynomax bullet mufflers, 3.42's. Comes with extra set of heads, extra crank, original turbo (non-intercooled) v-6, wiring harness. The car does run, but would need to be trailered back home, the transmission needs to be rebuilt/replaced and it needs an alternator with higher output for the fans. This would be a great car for someone who has the time and money to invest in it. I don't want to see it go, but I'm quitting my job and moving to go back to school so I won't have time or money for it. I'd take $2,500 cash for everthing. Pictures are available, e-mail me at joeg_2001@yahoo.com. Thanks...

    Interested..... can you send some to Wayne39nTx@aol.com please and let me know of any body rust issues and interior condition. Might make me a good play toy. :beer May not work out with the Dallas area inspection laws. Lets see about that though.

    Still for sale. I'm considering pulling the engine/trans/radiator if anyone is looking for a project. It would still come with the original engine/turbo/harness and possibly the transmission. Let me know if you're interested, I can send some pics. Thanks...

    As you can see, the "bumper fillers" need to be replaced. There are a couple dents, no rust. Pretty clean interior for 20 years old. More pics are available...

    I'm also trying to sell my 02 Millenia if anyone needs a nice daily driver. It has 80k miles, mostly highway miles since I've owned it (20k miles in less than a year). It's black and gray with gray leather interior, sunroof, heated seats, 6-disc CD changer. I need $10,500 for it which is about $2k less than I owe on it. I'm located in Tupelo, MS.

    Yeah, I'll post pics when I get off work this evening. The car is at my mother's house in Lufkin, TX so it's only 3-4 hours from you.
