  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. 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

Any interest in a '73 Century 4 door? Parts?

Discussion in 'Cars and Parts For Sale Leads' started by MattB, Mar 7, 2007.

    My city does public auctions every two months. All of the vehicles are cars that were wrecked/stolen and never picked-up from the tow yard, Felony arrest vehicles, abandoned vehicles, cars with out of date tags/inspections and towed after a warning or two, etc. Well a few days before the auction happens, they post a list of the vehicles and vin #'s, and one of them is a '73 Buick Century 4 door. The VIN# is: 4P39T3X194683 if anyone can do anything with that and see a list of options/etc. Since it's a 4 door, it's obviously not a GS, but probably just a standard 350. I have no idea what condition the car is in, it could be a low-milage car witha dead battery, or a completely stripped/gutted shell, I've seen everything at these auctions. What I'm asking is, if anyone needs any specific parts, or possibly even a partscar, please post-up or come on out to the auction. Most cars sell for just 100-300 bucks unless it's a nicer car, or in demand, etc. I really don't have a place to keep it(especially if the tags/inspection are out!), but if it's something I can pickup cheap and sell off trim parts/front clip. etc to someone with a GS, I'd be happy to do that! Anyway, it's in the north Dallas area, so if anyone needs a partscar near here, I'll give you the time/location of the auction! Just in case it's too nice to part-out, what is a decent Century worth? I can't really find ANY on ebay, so I'm kinda clueless!

    I forgot to add, and I know it's VERY little notice, but the car is being auctioned on Thursday March 8th early in the morning! I'll check this post before I head to the auction!

    If the front fenders are nice and the rear bumper rubber strips are nice it might be worthwhile for someone to part it out.
