    I hadn't seen this one before. Where did you see it and what is the story?

    Looks like it got a GS grille since I saw it last. It was in Mankato MN back in August, at a classic car place. Wanted 17K or some crazy figure. I love the term "Minor Flaws".

    Car was a Ebay for a couple of runs, I went a looked at it. If someone is interested, contact me and I'll fill you in.

    It looks like the asking price is $14000 now. What is it worth Rich?

    What it's worth and what I'd pay for it are usally two different things:Dou:

    But lets say that you'd need to pay careful attention to the frame (behind the pass side door area) and I couldn't begin to find all of the bondo spots (lots of it). It's also been hit in the front. I spent 15 min with the car. The matching numbers would have to be verifyied.

    A good project (PROJECT, did I say that loud enough) and triple black. Could be a nice ride.

    I too looked at this car when it was in Mankato. Rich, can you believe it? You and I looked at the same car!

    I am not going to pile on. It was/is a rusty, northern car that has been exposed to some salt in its lifetime.

    Great color combo though and I imagine quite unique.


    Good luck!

    Yes, he finished his 64 Skylark, and took it to the National in Rochester. This summer he drove it a total of 2 times! WOW. I knew he would do that, spend tons of $$ to restore it and then let it sit in his shed. Dad is the same way, they have these collector cars and let them sit???? :Do No: I don't get it........Dad has a 64 Wildcat with 39K on it and hasn't driven it for at least 5 years, he also has a 63 Electra 225 convert that hasn't seen the road in about 8 years!!! BLOWS MY MIND! :puzzled:
    Have a great day Rich!

    Did you ever post finished pictures? I know you started a thread about it at one time.

    You need to get one of those Buicks from your dad:Brow: He's got a nice collection of stuff:kodak:

    I believe I did post some finished photos, can't remember though, I will check into that. I have been trying to buy the Wildcat from my dad for many years, but he won't sell. I am sure he will pass it on to one of my brothers that dont give a hoot about old cars, and they will sell it to someone else, or want to sell it to me for 5X what it's worth! :( The sad part is,....the Wildcat's paint is starting to bubble and it needs ALOT of TLC to get it to the standards it should be at for a car with these low miles!
