This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

I bought this car early this year from the original owners family. Story I was told it was his daily driver from 1971 till his death in dec of 2022. The only car he had in that time period. Bought it from his brother. Was in Chattanooga TN it’s entire life. Since I bought it I’ve done several maintenance repairs. Rebuilt the front end , added disc brakes replaced the steering box and p/s pump and pressure hose. Front and rear shocks. Car starts runs and drives. Factory n-25 car. Tips gone. Have taken to several local cruise ins and small shows. Had the car at the Buick nationals this past year. Road worthy but not for a cross country trip. Yes it has rust,dents and what’s left of the original paint. Floors are good. Trunk is scaled Frame is good. Regular rust in the lower fenders , behind the rear wheels and some around the rear window was an original black vinyl top. Yes it leaks a little but has 40 psi oil pressure on cold start and around 7 psi when hot. May put a booster plate on the oil pump. Car originally came with 14 inch wheels with hubcaps. I have 2 options on the wheels. 15 inch steel with dog dish or 15 inch Buick rally’s both sets are older dates on the tires. It’s a cool project gets a lot of attention every time I take it out. Pictures show bucket seats. Have the original bench with arm rest. Bucket can go with the car for additional money. 8500$ for car with your choice of wheels and the bench 9000$ with the buckets. This car is for sale not no sale please keep any negative comments to your self. I’ve got another unexpected project and trying to thin the herd. 6156316378. Posting on here before listing local.

    Car is in middle Tennessee. Will try to post more pictures later. Motor drips a little. Fixed a couple leaks More I drive it the better it seems to run. It’s never going to be a show car but it took 50 years to look like this. Lol

    Car is in great shape for a 50 year old daily driver. If I didn't already have a Skylark I'd be all over that car. GLWS
