    City: Chenango Forks

    State: New York
    Price: $9,800
    1957 Buick Special
    (Clear title and NY inspected)

    Summer driving only and garage kept.
    Driver ! Not a trailer queen. Chips, scratches, rattles, squeaks – no extra charge.
    Interior is fair/decent for its age
    364 CI engine 2 bbl with DynaFlow transmission
    1 year on new dual exhaust (MAYBE 500 miles)
    100 miles on 4 new tires
    New CD player and speaker
    Pertronix module replacing distributor points
    New fuel tank sending unit
    4 dr Mild custom w/shaved rear handles and hood/trunk trim

    What you want to know:
    Blower works (although I don’t drive the car when it gets cold)
    Speedometer shows faster than actual speed (Hey, it’s OLD!)
    Clock and radio do not work (hence the new CD player – but radio selection on CD player will work if you get a simple antenna)
    Original drum brakes
    No power steering or power brakes

    The car runs like a bear.

    What you need to know:
    I do NOT need to sell the car(s). I still enjoy driving it and all kinds of people waving and giving my wife and me the ‘thumbs up’. I am offering it for sale because I am a car guy and find that half the fun is working on the vehicle itself. At this point (age 67) I have developed physical limitations that prevent me from doing much of anything on the car. If you are a ‘car’ person who is capable of tinkering and enjoying their toy, consider this one. If you are looking for a show car, this is not for you. Gary - 607 648-2567
    (Can't seem to find how to post pics. If interested I guess you'll need to get me your email)
