My new to me 64 Wildcat
« on: August 13, 2024, 09:57:55 AM »
Acquired this as a package deal with a 65 Gran Sport Convertible and a bunch of Skylark and Wildcat parts on Saturday. 

The car sat outside for the last 4 years, and pics after a pressure wash, but not really a "cleaning".  Interior is untouched, no clean up at all yet.
Tilt, power windows, ac, Autronic eye, exterior trim package, cornering lights, Formula Fives, Cruise, two speed wipers, ps, pb, power trunk release, am/fm radio.
Real loaded car.  Will likely clean it a bit and get it running better (needs carb and brake work at a minimum) and then sell it as a nice project driver for someone.

Thanks for sharing!  Around here, we never get tired of photos of mid-60s Buicks!

 Thank You for posting those photos. Wildcats are my second favorite Buick from the mid 60s. Does it have the 300,401 or the 425 ? Someone out there is going to get a real awesome Buick when you put it up for sale...

It has the numbers matching 401 in it.  I think about 90k miles showing on the odometer.
