1973 Buick Centurion convertible 455 CID for sale

Hi Marty,

Where is the car located, and how much were you looking to get for it?

[73 Centurion]

Oh look, the much discussed passenger side mirror!

The car is located in Springfield, Missouri. It is a 20 footer (looks good at that distance) but could benefit from a restoration. Has some rear quarter panel rust around the edges, needs upholstery (some splits in the back seat vinyl) and a new top. Small new tear near passenger side windshield area. I have asked $5000.00 but would accept any reasonable offers. I 've owned the car 12 years and it has been stored most of the time and is seldom driven. About five years ago I used to drive it frequently and have made several statewide trips in it with no problem. Power windows and door locks. Power steering and brakes. Has factory air but that has not worked since I've owned it. I would honestly just like to see someone love this car as much as I did when I first spotted it off of I-44 near the Oklahoma border several years ago.

I drove to Springfield to look at this car. It needs a lot of work, but it's worth saving. I passed, but if anyone is interested I can give you more details on the actual condition. It needs a total restoration, but the structure is sound.
