Hi all, I am Jake. I have recently been looking at buying a car, and I came across a 67 Buick. I haven't picked it up yet, and dont even know the model of it, maybe yall could help? I only have one pic until the owner emails me some more. Ok tried to post the pic, cant do it until i have ten posts.
Haha, I will try too. Hoping i end up getting this Buick, only asking 1K for it, and I dont think the owner is much of a car guy himself.
The VIN should tell ya...Find out what year and this site is a wealth of info... http://buicks.net/index.php
All i know is that the car is a 67 and he claims it has a 350 in it, but i thought the 350 wasnt used until 68.
I havent seen the car yet, its an hour away, and i have no car at the moment, have to go down to see it soon. But it has the 2bbl carb on it, i am betting its the 340 because this guy has no clue about the car. If he did it would not be so cheap.
'67 LeSabre. Three ventiports and no hood spear are a dead giveaway. Would have had a 340 cid V8 with a ST300 two-speed trans (variable pitch converter, too) unless it somehow got the LeSabre 400 option, then it would have been the 340 engine with the ST400 three-speed auto. Look closely at the frame, frame-to-body mounts, floor pans and trunk for rust. Devon
Well I just emailed the seller about it, should know what is up with the motor shortly. Hopping it is a Buick 340, not a SBC in there. Hoping to maybe even pick it up saturday, just got my stimulus check, so that is really going to help me buy it! :3gears:
Doesn't matter if it's a two or three speed trans...final gear is 1:1. Mileage will depend on state of tune, engine health and rear axle ratio. Safe to say a trip from FL to CA wouldn't be very affordable. Devon
Ahh good to know that. If i buy it, the car will be making a trip from flint, where it is at, to bay city, both in MI, about an hour drive.
