Mechanics Special!!!

This 1998 Buick Park Avenue Ultra is a rare car! It is the top of the line performance model with the Supercharged 3800 V6 engine! Very few were made! These are a fabulous cars when they run right!

That's the problem here! This one DOES NOT RUN! WILL NOT START! I'm not sure why! Nothing works - no power to anything! No lights! No radio! NOTHING! It is not locked up (moves by hand), engine has oil (no water in oil), doesn't look like its been worked on, definately has an electrical problem and maybe more!

The Supercharger is hooked up ( has brand new belt installed) and there are no signs of overheating. It could have a major mechanical problem - I am not sure!

Its loaded and nice inside! Yes, the interior is clean and not torn up! Leather is good! All power including Roof, heated seats, locks, windows, factory CD and Cassette, and more! Has factory chrome wheels and decent tires, one rim has minor damage (see picture)! The body is decent overall - does have several dings, dents, & scratches (all over - see pictures) and paint is peeling on trunk. It is not wrecked and does not have major damage, everything is minor. Also has slight gap near driver door bottom & driver side front quarter pannel (see pictures). Looks good from a distance! No, this is not a showroom new vehicle! No, this is not torn up badly wrecked beater! You'll look presentable pulling up in this one.

Car was supposedly driven recently, but we wreckered it to our lot! This definately has an electrical problem and may have other problems! This is one worth fixing though! I sold a nice one last year simillar to this (only it ran good) for $4500! May be an easy fix, but probably isn't!

I'm representing this as having major problems, but I can't tell you what! Bring your tow dolly for pick-up! This will not start and does not run - will not drive off lot! Nothing works! Has no juice!

How's that for a sales pitch?

This looks to be a complete car that has a lot of potential!
