The battery was completely drained when I bought the car, and I had to let it sit on the battery charger all day before it would even turn over. Then when I got it back to my house, it wouldn't start again, but I was able to find a battery for only $30. And I think there may be an electrical problem, the lights in the dash are all wacky and turn on and off when you touch different parts of the thing.
For being a '76, the body and interior are really well kept up. Besides a few minor rust spots and some tearing in the leather seats, it's a really nice car both inside and out.
But because of the engine size, the price for gas is bad and I put about $10 bucks in every 3 or 4 days.
Hello I'm Terrence I'm 18 and I've owned 5 buick lesabres and one currently 1978 buick park avenue with a 350-2 barrel carb, but to me it sounds like your alternator if any one have a 1976 lesabre in ga call me at 404-587-2156.
Wow, if your LeSabre "used to be a 400", it was one of a kind, as all the rest of them built that year came with either a 350 or a 455. Too bad you replaced it and stuff.
