Well it sure is red. I can't get excited much from cars of this era. Most are too big and too underpowered.

Aside from that dashboard guage-pod mod, it's a cool old car. Gives a brand new meaning to "cherry ride."

^ The silver gauge on the pass side is the factory clock- Buick did this for some years in this era.

Don't kno what that emblem to the right of the clock is, tho- not factory, that's for sure.

Rear quarter emblems are also in a random location- also not factory.

Buick 350 is a strong motor- rebuilt to 1971 tune and massaged a bit this would move very surprisingly well.

This era does little for me as well tho. Jeers

Huh. Well, I learned something today.

Sweet Buick..

Comes with 22s? Um.....

The mods are unfortunate.

The mods are unfortunate.

Criminal even.

This is a lesson in what not to do to a survivor car.

Huge chorus of raspberry-laden Jeers!

Nice and Clean, but that is one bright red auto, shame about the exhuast and emblems being changed. The engine also looks well worn and I would have to doubt the milage on this baby.

Is it me or does that funky emblem next to the clock remind anyone else of being a batman type logo?

Over all JEERS for me,

Based on now looking at the link, I agree this is for sure a Jeers as I would not trust any of the electrical. That thing must really be spliced up to run all the speakers and stuff. It was turned into a bass pounding low rider pretty much.

Someone will think it is cool and go for it only to inherit a electrical nightmare.
