1974 Buick Estate Wagon

Ive been emailing back and forth with the seller and talked a little on the phone.
he is working on getting the title straightened out and has bought a new fuel tank and is installing it so the car will be ready to go when it is sold.
he is also doing some stuff like working on confirming if the engine is original and a couple other things so he will better know what he is selling and be able to maybe put forth more info that buyers will want to know.
i think he has had so much interest that he feels these things will help it bring better money that it deserves.
seems like a pretty nice guy.

 

I hope that works out for you, Yuk. It looks like it's far to nice and complete for it to end up as a derby car or an organ donor.

 

I lost interest in owning it the second I saw it wasnt a 74. I just opened some dialog with the guy and threw some free advice to him.
Im currently trying to gather funds to buy a 97 chevy 1500 extended cab from my cousin so I couldnt afford a wagon anyway. plus there are shelves of NOS parts in my garage waiting for me to turn them into a new 74 lesabre convertible. so no time to mess with a wagon.
i hope someone gets the wagon and takes good care of it.

 

Any more news on this Buick Estate Wagon?

 

im meeting him tomorrow or tuesday. he needed a front parking light lense and i had gad a pretty nice one. also i have some well worn ralley wheel caps that im giving him.
as for the title... title work is slow anyway.
he told me he still would like to find a left tail light lense. 74-76 are th same if anyone has one they wanna sell.

i hate for these cars to disappear. i hope it gets a good home.
it will be 40 years old next year!

 

well the guy said he wanted the parking light and caps for the car but hasnt contacted me since my last post.
i havent got replies to texts sent to him (i was trying to meet him closer to his house or in KC than my house since most people cant find my place)

so i am now in the dark..... oh well.

 

I finally went up and saw the wagon. The owner bought a front parking light lense from me and I threw in a couple old caps for the wheels.
He found a brand new fuel tank for it he still needs to put on and is still looking for a left tail light lense.
His plans are to get it back on the road to tow with and drive it yet he says it is still for sale(?).
He has some other cars he has reworked. One is a 70 camaro with 4 wheel independent suspension, big block etc .... super nice.
The wagon might become a tow vehicle for it.
