March 2004
I just bought another 81 Buick Century for $200. No title. Good for parts & engine only. When i got home i cranked it a few times and the started it up and sounded perfect. It was dark by the time i hauled it to my moms house. I'm going to be taking out the engine my self, and swaping it into my other car. My Original Century has a bad engine. This one i bought has a good engine with original 100,000+ mi on it. The guy gave me the transmission on the side. He took it off because it blew on him and he tried to rebuild it i guess but never had time. The 5 Tires are new including the spare. It has a new alternator, radiator, hoses, spark cables, carburator, dist. cap, and some extras in the trunk. Isn't this a great buy?
