    This is not my car, it is only a lead... That being said, I have verified that it is a true numbers matching car (Engine is there, 4spd? headers in the way, rearend appeared to be correct.) This would be a parts car if the engine was gone.

    Enjoy,

    Jim

    Yes, I went out yesterday and documented the car. I have digital photos as well. It is a Burgandy mist poly with black buckets interior with black top.
    All this matches the cowl tag. It was built 5B. Needs passenger rear quarter. Bumper is a 68, core suppout rough, trunk has holes in it. Engine numbers matched:TU: :TU: :TU:

    Hurst 4 spd with tach, could not verify the trans because of headers in the way. One thing about the car it is an all delete car
    Posi tag is there in rearend.:TU:

    I will post the pictures later today. The owner has no pics. As far as the delete car, I can not verify due to unseen build sheet . But every indication from viewing may lead to be one.

    He is gaining confidence on the car. Due to the amount of phone calls he says. I feel down the road, time may change his mind.

    Remember this is a craiglist offering with no digital photos supplied. The craiglist ad is very attractive. If the car was as nice as the craiglist ad it would be in my garage or some other buick member that traveled with me.

    Project, yes indead. Rust in floor board and trunk and who knows where else. Solid frame.

    Good Luck
