Willie, It was nice talking to you earlier. I'm looking forward to seeing the car in my driveway on Saturday. I appreciate all of this. Thanks. Brian
Brian, with all the Buicks you have, have you considered getting a Dealer's Sign? :laugh: "Brian's Buicks" has a nice ring to it!
o No: :idea2: :beer Brian, for some odd reason I knew you were going to end up all over this. When this ad was posted I looked at it before anyone commented on it and I too figured it was too far for me. Glad to see you jumped on it and hope it works out well for you. Congats. :TU:
Yes this one was screaming my name. If all goes as planned it will be here Saturday. Bill, I would prefer to be listed as a non profit as The Plainfield Buick Museum.
The car got loaded today!!! and ready to leave tomorrow evening. pats inside veh. title and bill in a seal envelop. t/you..much...and im going to hate see it gone... but in another hand my jeep will be fix.:ball:

Willie, The car got here about a half hour ago. Your transporters got here and left quickly. But I was a little disappointed to see the car didn't have a tilt column in it. I got the bumper and sending unit but didn't see the window felts in the car. Unless they are hiding somewhere. I opened up the newer rear bumper and it was pretty nice. But thanks for getting it here. I have a set of good seats to install along with a ton of other parts. Thanks.
Yes... Im sorry... I got the felts!! but i will send them to you I told my friend to get them in the car...got to go to the shop and look for them and send them to u asap....once again sorry....and as the tilt..the guy i got ti from told me it had tilt but the lever was broken!! for me it was the signal lights but he say it was side to side for signal and back for tilt....honestly i did not put to much attention to it.....I'm happy that u have it!!! when i made the deal with you...some other offers where made and I told them no...I had a deal with you..and my word was more that the money they offer....hope you enjoy.:TU:
I appreciate it no doubt. Yes there is always someone that will try to snipe in and grab a deal from under you. Thanks for selling it to me.
Not referring to anyone specifically. I meant there are sometimes PM's that get sent behind the scenes and deals are made and all of a sudden the item is gone.
The car is just sitting in my driveway with a flat tire waiting on warmer days. The car didn't have tilt wheel and I never received the other window felt pieces. I did rip out what was left of the interior. It smelled like water and mouse urine. The interior floors are pretty solid...........the trunk floor needs a couple of patches over the floor braces. I sold the rear seat frame on Ebay since it wasn't the correct post seat frame. The front seat was some green bench seat from a late sixties car. When I took the stuff out it showed it was a bucket seat car due to the original brackets on the floor. I'm not slamming the car's shape but being real. Both doors in poor shape-Left side huge dent and rt side rotted, right fender rotted, lower quarters rotted and rt side has a tear hole? Rear body panel has a bunch of bondo. The hood is junk,grille broke, front bumper bent,windshield broke, rear windows don't roll up or down, tail light housings cracked. I needed it just for the shell so it was good for me. It's a nice project if anyone had all the parts that I do. Other than that it would be a $$$ pit. I have bolt on Arizona rust free parts for this car. I tried to get it running but the engine wouldn't turn over when I hooked the battery to it. I stopped after about a half hour. I'll try it on a warmer day..........but I don't care if it runs since I have a 455 here waiting for it along with 400 trans and a 8.5 rear 3:90 with a mini spool etc. I've been collecting more suspension parts and put togther a nice set of Weld Drag Lites, also a disc brake set up also. All I need is a little warm weather. I'll get the bolt on parts on it an get it running and worry about the quarters another day. I like the car and it was worth the $1000 + the $500 shipping since I wanted a post car again even though I cut up 3 of them in the last few years. I'll start a thread and post some pics when the process starts. I never heard back from the seller about the missing window stuff.
