Description for Buick LeSabre 1973

1973 BUICK LESABRE 2 DOOR HARDTOP. i GOT THIS IN A FEW MONTHS AGO AND STARTED TO FIX IT UP. IT RAN PRETTY BAD BUT AFTER A GOOD TUNEUP. IT RUNS PRETTY STRONG. I REPLACED THE POINTS. CONDENSOR. ROTOR. DISTRIBUTOR CAP. AND SPARKPLUGS (NO JUNK. ALL BLUE STREAK AND AUTOLITE) AND SET THE DWELL AND THE TIMING. I ALSO REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER (THE OLD ONE WOULD BYPASS AT TIMES. KINDA UNNERVING). I GAVE THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR A CLEANING. I CHECKED THE BRAKES (GOOD LININGS). THE FRONT END (WAS PRETTY TIGHT). THE LIGHTS (FIXED A FEW BULBS) AND HAVE BEEN ENJOYING IT AS MY EVERYDAY DRIVER UNTIL THEY STARTED SALTING THE ROADS. IT RUNS PRETTY STRONG. AND HANDLES JUST LIKE A BUICK SHOULD. LIKE A BOAT. IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE RIDING ON A FOOT OF INSULATION BETWEEN YOU AND THE ROAD. I HAVE FOUND A FEW THINGS THAT NEED ATTENTION: THE TIRES ARE OLD AND A LITTLE DRYROTTED (THEY ALL HOLD AIR. JUST WEATHER CHECKED). THE BACK UP LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. ONE LENS AND LEFT FRONT TURN SIGNAL LENS IS BROKEN. SMALL EXHAUST LEAK (STILL SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD. TRUE DUALS). WEATHER STRIPING NEEDS REPLACED. THE BODY HAS SOME OF THE USUAL RUST OUT AROUND THE REAR WHEEL WELLS AND A FEW DENTS. VERY VERY REPAIRABLE. WIPERS DO NOT WORK AS THERE APPEARS TO BE A SHIM MISSING UNDER THE HOOD HINGES. ENGINE HAS A SLIGHT HESITATION AND USES A LITTLE OIL. ALL CYLINDERS ARE AROUND 160 PSI COMPRESSION. RUNS AND SOUNDS STRONG. VERY SMALL TRANS FLUID LEAK. I REALLY LIKE THIS CAR. I JUST DO NOT HAVE A PLACE TO KEEP IT RIGHT NOW AND TO MANY OTHER PROJECTS AHEAD OF IT. NOT A SHOW PIECE BUT WITH A LITTLE WORK THIS COULD BE A NICE LOW BUDGET CRUISER. IT WOULD BE GREAT TO TAKE THE FAMILY FOR ICE CREAM IN THE SUMMER! I CAN DELIVER FOR A FEE OR HELP LOAD ON YOUR TRANSPORTER. EMAIL OR CALL WITH QUESTIONS. THANKS FOR LOOKING. DON 570 956 3338.
