1984 Buick Park Avenue review from North America
"A pretty good luxury car with many options to chose from"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My engine blew at 103,000 miles that had 5.0 liter in it. Replaced it with 5.7 liter much more power.
Heater core, hoses, belts, waterpump, and Radiator.
Replaced all transmission seals and tranny mount.
New air shocks and paint job.
Headliner done started to wear badly.
Replaced winshield along with wiper motor.
General comments?
This car has been just about completelydone over handles well and takes off pretty quick.
However I felt the 5.0 liter should have never been put in this vehicle it should have had a bigger block from the start pretty big car needs something to give it a push.
