Up for grabs here, is my sons 1966 Buick special project.
He bought it last year and has put some good time and money in it,but he has recently found something else he would like to do more. The car is a solid running driving project. He bought the car from someone who bought it from an estate sale and it had a salvage/reconstructed title. He recently got a new rebuilt title,tags,and plates so it is legal to drive. From what I can tell is, whoever had the car last put some good amount of time into pulling out whatever damage was done to the car. I believe (as I have been building cars and doing body and paint for well over 20+ years) that the car was hit on the right side right in between the two doors. Most likely slid it into a pole or tree but who knows?
Regardless it has some mud on that side but it appears to have been done right and not over used. The floor pans are in great shape, in fact there is no through rust on this car, what can be seen is only surface rust and will clean up nicely. The seats have been re-done at some point(was that way when he got it) the cars title that we had showed 81k and some change in miles and the odometer says 83k and some change now..can’t be 100% if that is trye correct or not but in the cars condition I lean towards it being correct. The motor runs very very nicely and sounds very healthy… since he bought the car here is a list of some of the things we did:
Swapped the intake from
A cast iron 2 barrel to a 64 Buick aluminum 4 barrel (yes,this does work and it works well ..shhhh don’t tell all those out there on the goose chase for the infamous 65 cast iron 4 barrel, it will rais the price of these 64 aluminum ones lol) … put on a brand new edelbrock ASV2 500CFM 4 barrel carb with electric choke and upgraded black edelbrock hard fuel line and filter from carb.
New black braided stainless fuel lines with anodized black and red fittings and mr.gasket fuel pressure gauge at the carb.
New electric fuel pump and in line filter all installed correctly through the oil pressure with custom fittings etc.. works awesome.
New painless wire fuse box (can’t remember the amount of fuses but it’s a big one.) with the led feature (when one pops it glows).
All new wiring from the dash to the trunk (fuse box is to big to be mounted to the OG location under the dash. Majority of that is done but there are still 3-4 wires that need to be ran and a bridge wire for the blinkers but lights and all that work. The fuse box still needs to be mounted and wires need to be wrapped and tucked away.
Car has 2 into one exhaust with flowmaster muffler (sounds good!). I’m sure there are things I’m forgetting,but this is a good start… it’s a solid ride just needs to be finished. The front bumper is missing and it has a tranny leak at the pan that needs attention ($130 gasket fix at most places). Car runs,drives,and stops great!
Please look at all the pics and contact me if you have questions or want to see more pics or videos of the car running. These cars are getting harder to find these days and this is one that would be worth finishing. Please contact me before bidding or purchase so I can make sure I’ve covered everything so there are no surprises. The car is local pickup, unless the buyer makes their own arrangements to have it shipped as we will not cover any of that cost… repeat.. all shipping or transportation is the SOLE responsibility of the BUYER!
Car is located in Beaverton OR.
