1975 Buick Century Free Spirit. 64k original miles. T-tops originally installed by Hurst. The car has been in my family since purchased new. My grandfather purchased it to promote our family business at the time. The car was used in parades and paced a couple bicycle races.
The car sat in the old wearhouse for yrs and then my Mom decided she would like to get it going again to drive it to play golf. Whatever. So I got it running good with tune up and replaced some gaskets. Cleaned it up and had it painted. The paint job is awesome. Straightest mid 70s car you will ever see. No Bondo. The car just had some surface rust along the door bottoms and maybe some behind the rear wheel wells but it was just serface rust.
Once I got the car back from paint I had the new tires and wheels installed. My Mom used the car for two summers and has now lost interest. We no longer have storage so it is eating up space in my garage. I was going to add some HP and enjoy it myself but I have to many other things going on and not enough time.
The car is really in great shape. There are a few interior cosmetic issues but nothing really bad. I would give the interior a 7 out of 10 and the exterior a 9 out of 10. The only reason I cant give the exterior a 10 is do to the rear tailight filler. It has fallen appart and I have yet to have it replaced.
The car drives just like a 1970 GM car should. The car can be driven anywhere.
The Bad: The dash has a crack on the corner where it meats the door panel. The driver seat has a tear on the side of the seat. The passenger door window sweep has a little rust on it. The rear taillight filler needs to be replaced.
Asking price is $8,600. Pictures speak for themselves.
Vehicle is located in Central Illinois. Please call with questions. 309-750-1000
Thanks,Dave

Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Next Buick Regal to inherit styling cues from Opel Monza concept
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Ever look at a concept car from a foreign auto marque like Opel and wonder what relevance it will have to you as an American consumer? Well, we'll tell you: at least as far as the Opel Monza concept goes, it could mean a lot.
Speaking with Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show, Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said, "You will see the Monza when you see the next Insignia." And the Insignia, we needn't point out, is essentially ported over to American showrooms as the Buick Regal.
The relationship between the Regal and Insignia only stands to grow closer as Opel design chief Mark Adams has also been charged with tightening the bonds between the two automakers positioned on opposite shores of the Atlantic. Adams also intends to imbue the next Insignia with more "premium brand values" in order to "add polish to the brand." Which in turn means that the Regal will be designed to look more upscale, too.
Buick Envision crossover to premiere in China
Tue, 01 Jul 2014Buick currently offers two crossovers: the compact Encore and the extra-large Enclave, leaving plenty of room to slot a mid-size crossover in between. And that's just what Buick is planning on doing. In China, anyway.
Previewed in the teaser above, Buick's upcoming new crossover is cloaked and nestled in between its aforementioned stablemates-to-be. Set to be unveiled in China sometime later this year, the model has been confirmed to wear the name Envision - at least in that market. That's the name which the concept version wore three years ago, but we're still waiting on word over whether that name will carry over to the US version or whether we should expect something different like Anthem. But we have to admit that Envision fits better in the brand's crossover naming scheme.
Shanghai GM isn't saying much about the Envision in the press release below, aside from it having "dynamic and assertive styling" backed by all-wheel drive and stop/start ignition. The last time Buick offered a mid-size crossover in North America was with the Pontiac Aztek-based Rendezvous that was discontinued seven years ago.
