    Great looking wagon from the few photos offered. Can't really go wrong for the asking price though.

    This is another of those cars that looks too good for the money asked. I wonder if there are issues we're not able to see and that he's not mentioning. His ad is very terse. On the other hand, it's only $1500. The car doesn't have to answer to much for that price.

    Nice old Buick for the money. I see some thin paint and some peeling woodgrain, but nothing bad. Interior looks good. If everything works, it would make someone a good car.

    At that price, it would make someone a good car if only half the stuff works. You'd certainly have a pretty decent amount left from most budgets to take care of any issues.

    If it doesn't end up in the hands of an uncaring derby driver, I expect to see it back here in about a month at a much higher price.

    Appropriate that it's in Flint.

    Lots of hope. This car was down to $500.00 before it was sold.

    I never knew the price got that low. I tried contacting the seller on several occasions. Never got a reply. I gave up.
