Car description |
---|
The body is very solid for it’s age, no rust through holes. The undercarriage is very clean too. The metal work is all there, but obviously will need to be re-plated. YOU get it running and enjoy it! All I did was get it out of a deep hibernation, washed it, swapped out the heater hoses (had garden hoses hooked up), and put Mystery Oil in the cylinders to begin to lubricate the engine. It has NOT been started and it needs brake work. The emergency brake does works.
I have the following new parts that will come with the car:
Ignition Cap
Ignition condenser
Ignition point set
Distributor rotor
Ignition coil
Ignition wires
Spark plugs
New Battery
New glass for the front windshields and rear deck windows with gaskets.Service manuals.
The interior is fairly complete, the door panels and headliner show wear and staining. The seats are covered and feel firm, I don’t want to take the old covers off and risk damaging the covers.
Has the original 16 inch rims with older tires that hold air (NOT roadworthy).
Basically you can restore it to factory specs, keep it as is, make it a hot rod, a gangster lowrider etc. The suicide doors, body styling and classy look make this a very desirable Buick.The fact that it was stored indoors for so long, the car is complete and that it comes with the documentation is a plus for any classic car. This 38 Buick is reasonably priced to sell quick, look around and see how uncommon they are and what they are selling for!
My vision was to lower the car, buy new wide whitewalls, add a front visor, add side skirts and pinstripe it. Decided to go for a drop top instead!
Again notime to work on it, so YOU get it running and enjoy it. I accept certified bank checks and cash! NO sales outside of the United States. The car is located in Connecticut. Shipping is the buyer's responsibility, but I will make myself available to assist the transporter.
See attached pics and feel free to call me with any questions at (203)667-289 nine.
Thanks,
