1965 Buick Gran Sport Hardtop
« on: March 12, 2016, 01:38:21 PM »
Hey guys , I bought a 65 Gran Sport out of AZ since I had a buyer for my over the top Skylark but guy called and said couldn't come up with the money  :angryfire: .
I'm going to put this car up here and on v8buick.com for a few weeks to see if any interest . Car runs , stops and drives nice .
It's a solid 65 hardtop matching numbers block , Edelbrock 750 ( have original and air cleaner ) runs really good no smoke or knocking . Rebuilt 400 trans , AC car guy put late model rebuilt compressor and new condenser but not plumbed in ( have original stuff too ) , Power windows all work , tilt , rear defroster etc . Chrome is pretty nice taillights have minor pitting . Needs paint and some body work has one quick repaint in 80's had fender replaced at that time quick cheap job . Rust in both lower quarter panels with bondo covering . Couple small holes in trunk pan but other than that pans , doors and rear window are super nice . Interior all there and original needs to be replaced sun baked but dash pad only has two small area where it rolls under hard to see . 17 " wheels and lowered a bit has nice look . It's a great project car that looks good going down the road and you can drive as your building it . Even have the protecto plates . I'll try to get it cleaned up and pics taken next weekend . ..... $14,000  ... Thanks , Mike

This is SAD. You take this car and if it was a GTO or Chevelle you could add $10,000.00 to the asking price and get it. What can we do to get the prices where they should be on our cars?

Yep , fully loaded 65 GS matching numbers all new interior for barely 5 digits makes you wonder  :angry fire: .
65 Buick's are my weakness . I bought many just to save and made few dollars over the years but those days are long gone .
Think Buick's are the best looking / driving cars you can buy for the money if you like class !!!!!!!  :occasion14:
