1961 Buick LaSabre Convertible with clear Ohio title

Buick LeSabre 1961 Description

This listing is for a 1961 Buick LaSabre convertiblethat I bought about a year ago, saved it from the salvage yard!! The guy I bought it from had used it years ago as his daily driver but had stopped driving it when the exhaust went out, I think he said 10 years ago was the last time it was on the road.The car runs and drives but has a dead cylinder, stuck or broken valve. The power brakes need rebuilt, the pedal goes to the floor,but everything is there, parts haven't been robbed off this car.As seen in the pics it has power steeringwhich is functional. When I brought it home you couldn't move the gear selector so I took the steering column out and cleaned up the bottom bearing, works great now!!The body is rough with quite a bit of rust and it looks like it was side swiped on the drivers side. The trunk is the worst of all the rustbut the floor pans are decent with some rust, it's not Swiss cheese!! The frame is very solid as far as I can tell but I haven't had it on a lift. A large tree limb fell on the hood and passenger side fender.This car can definitely be restored, rat rodded, parted out to make some moneyor??? It has the 364 nailhead engine andRochester 2Jet carb. The car has a clean numbers matching Ohiotitle.
The numbers on the car are:
Heads:1196914Intake: 1173878Block: 3H274882
