    1961 Buick Le Sabre 2 door bubble top.Sorry that the pictures didn't turn out better.I will take better photos tomorrow and post them.With that said,let me say that this car does run (quite well,actually).I tuned it up last summer so the engine has all new parts.There was no radiator in it when I purchased it.I did manage to locate a radiator out of a 58' Buick so I bought it.Took the radiator to the locale radiator shop and had it it cleaned and pressure checked,it's okay and ready to go.I had the inlet for the radiator moved from the center to the right.It should work,if not it has a spot futher to the right that definatly will work.Dimensions for the radiator are correct but the mounting brackets are not so you will have to "engineer" it.The body is pretty decent,the hood has some rust-through on the front edge,and the trunklid has a minor dent in it.The interior is intact and in better than average condition but not perfect.Some rust-through on the floors but not a wipe-out by any stretch of the imagination.Has a 364 "Nailhead".I would say that an afternoon of tinkering and you could have it up and running,it has no exaust from the manifolds and beyond.Doors seem solid and all the glass is perfect.Quarterpanels and fenders seems solid also.Bumpers are a little dinged.All the stainless steel trim is there and intact.The floor of the trnk is heavily rusted and is definatly the worst part of the car.A creap ride all things considered.Call between noon and 8 PM.1-517-439-0257.
