The vehicle was leaking oil badly at the valve covers.
The gas tank drips when filled more than a quarter of a tank.
The water control valve broke off while replacing valve cover gaskets.
All of the vacuum lines need to be re-done.
The parking brake line snapped when I checked to see if it still worked.
Needs a tune up badly.
I really lucked out on this car. I only paid $250.00 for it.
The body is in fabulous shape for being a vehicle that has been driven in Ohio's wet and salty road conditions during the winter.
The interior is like new, aside from the wear on the carpet. The seat are comfortable unlike any other car. Even better than a Cadillac. The car has never been smoked in, and was owned by a man that wears a suit every where he goes.
The previous owner put almost $2,000 into the vehicle before he sold it to me.
If you want a very comfortable car, this car is the one you've been looking for. It floats like it's on a cloud. Especially since it has new shocks and springs.
My father owned an 1986 Le Sabre, And I fell in love with it. It was the most reliable car that he has ever had. He also owned a 1987 Cadillac at the same time and personally I thought that the Buick was 50 times better.
So far I've only driven the about 6 miles, but I think its going to be a keeper. And I've only put about $50 into repairs, and I did them myself.
That's $8.33 per mile!
