Re: '94 Buick Century wagon

Nice!!

It's always refreshing to hear about GM vehicle purchases on GMI!!! New or used!!!

I had a 1990 Century Limited wagon I bought for a steal, it came from Palm Coast Florida, white with woodgrain & blue interior...61K miles...

The cosmetic issues were rashed wire wheel covers & a scraped up steering wheel (ring marks)...otherwise despite it being filthy dirty inside & out...it was rust free!

I bought it off the original owners granddaughter who got the car from her grandparent's estate... They thought the transmission was junked...it turns out it was a modulator that needed replacing...

I also got a used set of wheel covers from a 86 LeSabre & it's blue steering wheel...

After an intense cleaning inside & out, and complete tune with crank/cam sensor repalcements as well...new whitewall tires with new struts & shocks...

I sold the car for $5200 a year later...6 years later the fellow I sold it too is still driving it!

I always got HUGE compliments on the car whenever I was out with it...I should try & post a pic!
