    We have to sell this one to cover some farm expenses and make some much needed room in the garage.

    It is not running but only needs a new carburetor ( holley 750 for folks at or near sea level or a 650 holley if you are more than 2500 feet above)
    And it needs a timing cover. I broke too many bolts off in it replacing the water pump.

    Just about everything on the motor is new and it ran great. It's a 455 with an edelbrock intake, new distributer, new gaskets throughout, new alternator, radiator, waterpump, AC works great, New rear coils, shocks, New Michelin tires, new fuel pump, get the picture? I'm a master certified mechanic and took real good care of it. We bought it about 6 years ago from the family of the Buick dealer I worked for after our owner died. It spent most of it's life in the showroom there.

    The interior is in near mint condition. Power everything, Factory AM radio, AC, power bench front seat, power windows. Original mats and trash can.

    Exterior has seen better days but looks great considering. My wife hit a deer in it a few years ago and I had to do a lot of work in a hurry to the right front fender. I ended up buying another car for parts to fix it. My paint on that fender isn't perfect but it matches real close. It has a couple of minor door dings on the sides and minor tree sap damage on teh trunk lid. Factory vinel top still in good condition and not torn.

    Chrome is excellent and there's lots of it!

    We are located in Lubbock, Texas and we are asking 1000.00 firm to put this car in a good home that will appreciate it for the nice mostly original car that it is. It won't take much work at all to get it going again.
    You can visit my web site West Texas Armory to get my phone number if you would like to call about it, or email me. We really need to move the car out soon so I can get hot on other work in our shop.
    Thanks!
    Dan

    We are in the bottom part of the pan handle, a couple hours south of amarillo. It's about 15 minutes east of I-27. I'll get some new pics today. Would you like me to EMAIL them to you or post them here? I meant to do that yesterday but I got held up working in the shop.
