    A zillion new parts, just about everything is brand new. Most parts have less than 500 miles on them. All new suspension, brakes, 3.42 posi rear, rebuilt 464ci Buick motor and beefed up TH350 trans, headers and 3" exhaust all the way back. All of the hard work has been done. This Buick is quick, powerful, loud and mean. And she handles just like a new car! Mechanically just about 100% new. I have well over $15000 invested. But most importantly, the car looks great and is fun to drive.

    Serious inquiries only please. 818-720-6434 or email above.

    THE FLAWS
    There are a few minor things that you could do to make this car perfect. Needs a heater core (fan works fine). Holes cut in door panels for speakers, just add your own speakers. Dash pad has a crack or two. Some small scratches and few chips in paint here and there, hood needs paint touch up (a little bit of primer--fixed a small dent). Front fenders have fresh incredible paint. Just needs black stripe painted. When washed it looks amazing from 10 ft. Almost no rust, just a touch near the rear window trim. A few minor tears along the seams in front seat. Tachometer and speedometer are not hooked up (easy fix). If you're a Buick buff, you'll notice that the fenders are from a Skylark, not a Special. The old fenders were beat up so these new ones went on and were painted. Also, some exterior trim is off the car, but I have all parts, all in great condition.

    Yup, that's my car. Just testing the waters. I have an opportunity to buy a piece of property so my Buick may need to go. I don't really want to sell since I've barely put 500 miles on the car since all the work was done. But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!
