    Put the original Buick wheels back on it and it would be perfect.

    The single chrome is a power recliner. I don't know what the black one is but it doesn't look factory.

    The black switch looks to be heated seats, which would have had to be added at some point. Definitely not a 1979 Buick option.

    Appears to be little interest. Wonder why? There is a lot to like on this Buick.

    Wonder how much better it would do with the OE radio, Buick road wheels and whitewalls? And report on the climate control system functionality?

    Agree with the wheels, and radio points. Like the real stuff with a car like that.

    Very surprised this Buick went nowhere in bidding. There is a lot to like there.
