This Buick started its life as a quarter mile race car. With that being its only purpose at that time they removed the components for the A/C and heat since they were not needed. After its racing days it spent 16 years owned by a gentleman who cared for and drove it. He passed away and it went to his best friend as part of his estate. His best friend cared for it as well and in 2014 the motor was rebuilt. He kept the vehicle for a couple years and then decided to part with it to the next eager... owner. The next owner kept it for about a year and decided the car was not for him and sold it to its current owner who has loved and cared for the car for the last year. The current owner has been around cars his whole life and loves collecting them. He has decided to let it go after giving it a little love. He has had the hood and trunk repainted to match the original paint color because some of the clear coat was coming off. All the rest of the paint is still original to his knowledge. A complete Ram Air system has been recently installed and matches what originally came on the car. This is not a clone. He even has the original build sheet for the vehicle.The radio is still original and works, but it is soft sounding. The gauges and clock work, the clock needs to be wound. It has a heavy cam, stall converter, super turbo muffler and 3β dual exhaust. The car also has a rear sway bar and rear airbags for a smooth ride. It has an automatic 400 turbo transmission, clean stock upholstery and the original wheels. The factory A/C interior controls are all intact, but the components under the hood are missing. On the front bumper, passenger side, the chrome is peeling. Itβs about 2 inches long. You can see some minor wear and tear in the photos. We have not has this vehicle safety inspected.
