New on eBay...

[dewbers]

Hey gang - new to eBay, I think...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Buick-Centurion-Convertible-1972-BUICK-CENTURION-CONVERTIBLE-455-Great-Daily-Driver_W0QQitemZ160215870059QQcmdZViewItem?hash=it em160215870059

72 Buick Ragtop. Asking $6800, which is high. However it's in Weehawken NJ, which may be near Rick and Richard (who I know if after one!!)

This is not a perfect car.... needs some TLC. It's looks like it may be a good foundation, but will need the touch of a loving home...

Good luck!
Steve

Hi Steve, thanks for thinking of me.
This has been on Ebay before. In fact at least two times before. Now I don't know if this is the original seller or the person may have won this on Ebay last year.

Will need a top....... rear close up's from the rear quarter you can see some obvious bubbles close to the side marker (has also bubbles) that means by the time you take the rust off you will most likely have to replace the lower section complete. That was the case in my old Centurion (and the bubbles were smaller). In my opinion he is asking too much for this condition.

I think I remember seeing this car on ebay before..

As far as I can see this car has too much rust for a Centurion which should cost more than $6000. And it needs several other things : new top, new front seat vinyl, new paint after welding the rusted parts, ... . With all this you would cross the 10 grand border easily. May be there are more hidden needs b/c the car has seen 170000 miles.

Anyway, the last pic is a very nice one - NY in the background and the black Centurion with its white top and white wall tires in front plus the american states flag ! Wonderful shot ! Steve, whenever you would have to replace your top and tires have a look to this picture before again ! ;)

Hey Steve, keep cool :cool: ! I told you what´s my opinion :

... nothing to change, nothing to add there !

Only when seeing that black car with white top I got the impression that it looks better than a black car with a black top (only my feeling ! I like the contrast b/c the car gets optical slightly more streched.). And with a white top white wall tires are better than black ones with raised white letters; guess you will agree so far.

So nothing changed. The new picture only brought a new idea.

Wonder what´s your opinion regarding the white top ?

Phil, Rolf, Keith... this is why I love this forum so much. We can bust chops, share stories, whatever! I am pretty thick skinned and if I question whether the line has been crossed, I'll ask...... No worries here guys! I enjoy the bantering!
