Interior
The seats were covered in the original Buick seat covers and the prior owner observed when they were removed to reveal the beautiful original cloth. .still soft and beautiful! All vinyl and the package tray appear to be original. Headliner was replaced with matching original material from SMS within the last 5 years and is flawless. Carpet is deep and luxurious but has a couple of holes near the transmission tunnel which indicates something was mounted there at one time. All interior chrome and stainless is excellent.
All components work with the exception of the windshield wipers (we're in the process of giving it a try). Speedometer (as is typical of this design) does not function properly but we have a rebuilt unit you can install. Radio plays but needs an overhaul to work well.
Mechanical
Engine compartment and undercarriage have recently been thoroughly cleaned & detailed (a dirty, expensive and detailed process). The engine runs very well, has plenty of power and is smooth through all RPM ranges. The choke does not seem to work though. The cooling system works exceptionally well as she stays cool in traffic on warm days. Power steering is fine with no hesitations. Brakes are strong but seem to pull. We inspected them and the linings have plenty of wear left. She runs & drives beautifully. There are no driveline vibrations at any speed. The original and rare Flightpitch Dynaflow is a wonder in itself. ..the most advanced continuously variable hydraulic transmission ever developed. And it works beautifully with no leaks! We just installed a brand new factory proper exhaust system from manifold to rear bumper and it does have that famous Buick Burble.
Driving
Drives wonderfully with an absolute minimum of air leaks. It does have a little wobble that I strongly believe may be the tires. The tires look terrific, not cracked and have plenty of tread but in my experience when a car sits for long periods the tires can develop some out-of-round that can be solved with some long drives.
