Thanks for viewing my page. I bought this 1967 Buick Wildcat convertible in 1993 for my father from the second owner, the original owner purchased this car from Braley and Graham in Portland Oregon. The second owner only had it for a few months before selling it, I imagine he bought it from an estate sale to turn a quick buck. My father kept garaged and added a little over a thousand miles in 12 years. The only time he took it out was for the local parade. When my father passed, I bought it back from the estate and drove it for a couple of years. Which brings us to date. The car shows less then 59,000 miles on the odometer and judging by the condition I have to believe this is accurate. The reason for the frame off is some rust issues, not bad at all, but who likes rust? The interior, the trim and the body will remain the same, the paint will change to a black or dark color, the power train will have some major changes but not look much differant, and the car will be riding on bags.

Day 5 and 6 spent scraping the floor boards and removing the windshield and trim. Found a little rust as you can see in the photos but so far I'm pretty happy with the minamal amount of rust especially with the floor pans.

This dude's been hanging around the garage and seems to like old cars, although very strong he's still just a little green.
