    A guy around here in the East Windsor area took one like this with about the same level of patina and made a kick ass gasser out of it.

    That looks like it was a really nice clean car 20 or so years ago and then suffered many years of really poor storage.

    From your title I thought you meant the province! It's not that bad; the Jays won, nice scenery, nestled in between Quebec and MANitoba, etc. Oh yeah I see your pint now, you still have the Leafs!
     

  5. Man do they rot. Check over the rear quarters best you can.
    I looked at a dozen before I finally found mine.

    How much can the trim go for?
    Re-selling it, that is.

    Many builds on the Hamb have started with much worse.

    Hopefully someone will have a use for the ol' girl....
     
  9. Do you know if they are willing to part it out?, or they want to sell it complete
     
  10. Man, I wish I had room for it. I would buy that car in a second

    If there's anything left of the floors and trunk=Yes. If it's a Fred Flintstone-mobile=No.
     
  12. Got a price as a whole, doubt they will part it, but you never know!
    Quarters are rough, but lots of good bits...
    What's the nailhead worth?

  13. I don't know what it's worth. If it's seized then probably nothing, I would think the bolt on stuff is still worth something (brackets,rocker covers,etc)..
    I see unseized ones on Kijiji for like 700. But I don't know if that's what they actually sell for though:)

    guess it would have taken too much effort to put 55 (?) Buick in the title.

  15. The title is a teaser.....

  16. It's only a 264 C.I.

    Still there are a lot of things on there for the restoration crowd. The windshield washer jar is hard to find. And the wheel covers are Roadmaster because of the winged center ornaments. None of the lower series, Special, Century and Supers did not use those.

    Those look like 58 Edsel spinners mounted to the hubcaps, weren't the stock spinners 2 eared?

    I was looking at the hubcaps, too. Rare seeing a stocker with the caps still on it...Those caps bring a 'pretty penny' around these parts.
     
  19. Dibs on the hubcaps..
     
  20. Took my senility pills, I should have caught that. The 55 Roadmaster DID use a two winged knockoff ornament. I fixated on the wheel cover but.......
     
  21. Great little engine for an A-bone....
    That Buick has to be heavy....especially with the extra spinners!

  22. I phoned there yesterday to get some info about the car, they said they're still looking for the ownership. Definitely wants to sell it whole
