1949 Buick Super Eight Additional Info:
FIRST OFF ; I am listing this for an older friend who does not use any form of modern communicatio, i.e. no email, tex, etc. he does it the old fashioned wa, he talk, he would be happy to answer any questions you might hav, but requests that you CALL him any time between 7AM and 8PM MS, Joe @ 4O6-59I-9O9O,
THAT SAID, Here is a Supe, survivor . A 1949 Buick Super 4 door sedan . with low reserve price
the car is very soli, there is an easily repairable dent behind and below the left rear whee, The fender skirts are include, and in good shap, the floors appear to be soli, the body is very straigh, there is some cracked side glas, which is all fla, and the curved glass is goo, with the exception of the driver side windshiel, which has a star toward the middle on the botto, but it will keep the elements out .
Agai, this is a survivor ca, an, being suc, you should be prepared to do some serious cleanin, the systems will need to all be checked ou, repaire, etc.
I did get this runnin, and it ran very smoot, I had a gas can running directly to the car, I ran it for 20 -30 seconds at a tim, and did not hear any noises that should not be ther, Sounded very goo, there was NO smoke eithe, I did this quite a few time, til my jumper battery would not turn it over any mor, that was a few months ago .
as you can see in the pic, the body is soli, there are very few problem, one is that the passenger front door handle does not work on the outsid, ( it feels like the internal linkage has fallen of, or something came loose) . The hood is straight and opens properly from either sid, ( Could use a bit of lubrication, as anything this old will) the doors open and shut solid . I forgot to check the odomete, bu, I don't think it has rolled over 100 clicks yet . there is a brand new fuel tank that comes with the ca, still in the wrappe,
The car has great patin, as i, and will make someone a great cruiser with less work than a lot I have seen offered out there .
the interior is all ther, but suffers from old age/ exposur, but is all there for patterns etc. bottom lin, the car needs ne, or different interio, to be more presentabl, the car is an original 66 year old ca, and will need what any car parked for any extended period would be expecte, , ( So NO you cannot jump in and drive it 1200 miles )
, So look closely at the pic, then read the description a couple time, and if you have any more question, just give Joe a call .
PLEASE feel free to read " about me" and my 100% positive feedbac, KNOW WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH ! ,
thank you for your tim, and have a, above average, day
