Contrary to what some of you snarky commenters believe, I do not prowl junkyards for UCOTD. That’s Murilee’s department. I don’t even know, without Googling, where the nearest junkyard is. Instead I scour our forums. And today I found an interest 1978 Buick Century Salon that looks like it’s been sitting in the boneyard. Except it runs.
Runs but needs work. The pics show it needs to be painted, and the seller recommends a tune up. The interior is apparently in good shape, save for the headliner, and the brakes need work.
The car has a 305 under the hood, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, and 72,000 miles and change on the clock.
It’s quirky, it’s cool, it needs work, and it’s older than I am. Check out this West Virginia-based car here.
