for sale

Price: US $8,900.00

Description:

Introduced in the middle of the “compact” era this upscale small Buick was powered by a unique and snappy aluminum V-8 with automatic transmission, that produced 190 horsepower. With a Rochester 4 barrel it was capable of 0-60 in 9 seconds. Only 8913 were built and according to DMV records there are only 128 convertibles registered on the road. Making this a EXTREMELY RARE CAR. The car is Regal Red with solid GM white interior. The car was repainted at least once in its life and retains a good shine but is not without flaws. it is a nicely maintained driver and is a matching numbers car. It runs great and is fully capable and dependable for touring, club outings and general fun in daily use. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I believe the odometer to be 78, 670, It was owned and garaged by a Elderly Man that really took care of the Car

It is an honest representation of convertible compact era. When my wife first saw it she said, “Wow, what a sweet little car! Please don’t bid unless you are a serious and qualified buyer.
