1964 Buick Lesabre 4 Door Cruiser No Pillar Windows on 2040-cars

1964 Buick LeSabre 355 Wildcat Engine

This Buick LeSabre is a great car. It has 72,000 miles.  4 doors without pillars, great for open window cruising.  It is 100% original.   Everything is totally stock.  I would like to call it a barn find since it came from the 2^nd owner who just drove it for fun.  I will rate the condition good for a 50 year old car.

This is a great start for a Rat Rod or Lowrider or great Summer Classic Cruiser.

There are only a couple small spots of rust in normal places – at bottom of front fenders and a small spot at bottom fear fender.   Any other rust is only surface rust.   The car has mostly original paint.  I say that because the rooftop is original patina in deep blue.  The bottom of the car is original paint on top half.  It appears the bottom half was repainted some.  There is no rust at all on the pillars, floor boards, trunk, and window areas or around critical structure areas.  The floorboards are really clean.

The body on all the lines is straight.  The doors show dings and a couple dents which seem to have been pushed back out, but there is no break or rust in the metal.   The rear bumper does need to be replaced.  The original owner was elderly and bumped a few things which are why the doors and rear bumper show the dings and dents.  Bottom line is the cars body is a great place to start for a restore or touch it up to drive it like it is.

The 355 Wildcat Engine runs good and can drive reasonable distances right now. This was the year they went back to a cast iron block with aluminum heads and intake.  It will need a water pump which I will replace.  It also needs an exhaust system and just has cheater duals on it for now.  This way you can pick the kind of exhaust you want.  Power Steering, Power Brakes, 2 speed transmission all work great.

Almost every function on the car seems to work.  The windows work great. The wing windows easily. The doors close smooth and solid.  All the rubber is in good to great shape.  The trunk weather stripping is in great shape.  The hood padding underneath is in great shape as well.  The electronics, turn signals, windshield wipers – even the squirters work and has a backup glass water bottle under the hood.

The interior is also in great shape, appears original and good looking.  There are two minor tears in the seats but not in the seating area.  The original carpet is exceptionally clean.  All the interior door panels are in real good shape but the driver’s panel needs a little attention to put the vinyl in place at the very bottom.

The issues I see that need attention are, the exhaust, carb should be rebuilt or replaced to be more efficient, heater core is disconnected and may need replacing, door body panels are not perfect, and will need new tires to be road trustworthy.

This is a great car to invest in.  We bought it to use to promote our business, but we have to reduce our projects.  You can have a cool car, rat rod, lowrider or anything you want to make of it.

I am asking $4,500 or best offer.  If you’re short on cash, I can take a credit card for payment since I bought this to use for my business promotion.

Possible delivery may be an option to certain parts of the country for a reasonable cost.
