Car is in excellent condition inside and out. The odometer shows 99,360 miles although not documented I believe it's original miles due to the condition of the car. I have taken the car on multiple long distance trips and runs and drives amazing.

Interior is in excellent Condition; seats, headliner, carpet, door panels are perfect. Dash pad is in excellent condition with no cracks.

Door and trunk weather stripping is in excellent condition.

Everything functions the way it should including the speedo fuel gauge, lights, heater, A/C, power windows, power steering and brakes. Car starts 1st time when cold and idles nicely.

Body is extremely straight with no known rust issues. Bumpers, headlight bezels and sport mirrors were painted to match the paint.

Floor boards and trunk area are rust free.

The Stock 350 Engine and 350 transmission were rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago and the car doesn't leak a drop of oil. You could eat off the oil pan. Engine has 60psi oil pressure when cold and running down the highway it has over 40psi. Engine always runs at 185 degrees and never over heats even with the A/C on. Transmission has nice firm shifts into each gear. Water pump, starter, alternator, A/C pump, cap, rotor, wires and spark plugs were replaced. The distributor was converted to electronic ignition. Poston aluminum Dual Plain intake manifold with new Edelbrock 650 carburetor with electric chock. Newer Flow Master dual exhaust with system with square chrome tips.

Suspension has some new suspension parts including new springs and shocks front and rear. Rear springs are CPP 2" drop and the front has a CPP 2" drop spindle with the larger 1 1/4" sway bar and KYB shocks.Factory Disc Brakes have been completely rebuilt with recent master cylinder, front brake calipers, brake pads and brake shoe replacements. Retains the stock 10-bolt rear end.

With it's amazing body and black paint this black beauty turns heads everywhere.

Junkyard Gem: 1973 Buick LeSabre Custom Hardtop Sedan

Sat, Oct 26 2019

The steps on Alfred Sloan's "Ladder of Success," in which you'd start your career by buying a Chevrolet and then move up through the GM marques as your wealth increased, stayed rigidly fixed from the 1930s into the late 1960s. By the early 1970s, though, "prestige creep" among The General's divisions had set in, with lower-zoot marques leapfrogging their betters with ballooning price tags and snob appeal; a fully-loaded Chevy Caprice could cost more than an Olds 98, a Pontiac Bonneville could out-snoot a Buick LeSabre, and the LeSabre itself came to threaten mighty Cadillac at the top of the GM pyramid. Here's a fully depreciated '73 LeSabre Custom Hardtop Sedan, once the picture of Malaise Era opulence but now brought down to earth in a San Jose self-service car graveyard. The high-rollingest of all LeSabres in 1973 was the Custom (though shoppers for full-sized 1973 Buicks really wishing to rub the noses of their lessers in their success could opt for the even pricier Centurion or Electra 225), and that's what I found among the Achievas and Cateras of this yard's GM section. Wasps now nest in the rust holes caused by rainwater seeping beneath the padded vinyl roof, but this car once told the world, "I've made it!" It went without saying that your big, comfy Detroit luxury sedan had a big, comfy front bench seat; let those frivolous rakehells in their Rivieras have their bucket seats. Believe it or not, a three-on-the-tree column-shift manual transmission was still standard equipment on the lower-level Buick Century in 1973, but all LeSabre buyers enjoyed two-pedal luxury that year. Some junkyard shopper grabbed the massive 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 — rated at 225 horsepower, due to Nixon's stricter emissions standards and the switch from gross to net horsepower ratings — before I got here. I'm guessing this car got driven into the ground by the early 2000s (there's a 2001 calendar inside) and then spent the next couple of decades bleaching in the harsh South Bay sun before arriving here. So good, shoppers bought them sight unseen!
