I just bought a 1985 Buick Rivera that belonged to a favorite professor at University of Kentucky.

Not very valuable, but 30,000 miles and immaculate. Got those big spoked hubcaps that weigh a ton.

No battery and on blocks since the owner died in 2006. My son and I are going over Saturday with a compressor, battery and gas. He's betting it will start.

Sentimental value only...the guy was one of my favorite professors, and I'm now the guardian for his widow. No other family.

Almost bought an old 53 Buick with a straight 8 and a long 6 volt battery years ago. Still going to school and didn't want to spend the bread. Have kicked myself over and over for than one.Was about 1972. Had less than 50,000 miles on it. Owner wanted $1200.00.

My young son and I are finishing a 55 Chevy wagon that has been a rat rod. Don't know exactly how it's going to come out, but its hot as hell on the streets.


FUN STUFF!
