| | Up for sale is a 1995 Buick Roadmaster Limited Estate Wagon with 73k Texas miles. No body rust, great paint, and nice undercarriage. Loaded up with power everything. Boasting GM's Corvette inspired multiport injected 5.7L LT1 V8 engine and 4L60E 4 speed automatic transmission, she puts down plenty of power. Heavy duty cooling with 2.56 open rear end (GM8 & V03 build codes). Delivers consistent 16 in town and 24 highway at 70 mph. Car has a salvage title due to owner dying and having to effectively file as if car was abandoned. This was initiated in January - this car is from Austin and is not a flood car. I have the history report showing this. Runs and drives great - drive anywhere.
NO RESERVE.

Condition Report
ENGINE: Runs on all eight cylinders without smoking, missing or knocking. Engine runs at proper temperature. Newer battery & good charging system. Starts easy and runs strong.
TRANSMISSION: Performs beautifully. Engages gears quickly and shifts through all forward gears and reverse with good downshift and torque converter performance. Clean fluid with no burn odors.
EXTERIOR: Body: Body is in exceptionally nice shape. The only issues are minor - two very small dings on the hood near the left headlight, and a small ding low on left front door as seen in pictures. Exceptionally straight otherwise. No body rust. Above average body. Paint: Paint is very, very nice all over. Has a few small paint chips on hood and one on the roof. Way above average for age. Wood: Upper wood trim was removed, painted tan and reinstalled so it won't peel like most do at this age. The side panel fake wood is in good shape with a few small chips/nicks. Otherwise, nice and above average - still shiny and clear with no sun fading. Other: Lower stainless bright trim is very nice with no notable dings. Rubber side trim is all there. Glass is all good. Undercarriage is extremely nice with no rust - see the pics - nice as you'd expect of a Texas car. Underhood sheet metal, tailgate sill and door jambs have no rust as seen in pics. Aluminum wheels are in good shape with no curb rash. (Note: I have the front license plate bracket.)
INTERIOR: Interior of the car is in nice shape consistent with low miles. Dash has no cracks and is smooth and not warped, leather seating areas are in great shape and leather is still soft. Driver's seat has typical tear near control panel (design flaw.) Cargo deck carpet in good shape with one minor stain. Headliner is not sagging but has two small tears near the back as seen in pics. Steering wheel is in nice shape. Carpet is in very nice shape with none of that typical wear near the outboard driver's feet. No smoke or pet odors. Full size spare in back. Nice interior overall. (Note: I have the missing cover by the dashboard.)
ELECTRICAL STUFF: All inspection items work (lights, horn, wipers, etc.) Most power options work reliably, including power windows, power locks, dual power 6 way seats, power recliners, hot heat and cold A/C, tilt, cruise, am/fm stereo cassette, rear window release, rear wiper, twilight sentinel, intermittent wipers, and rear defroster. Car has keyless entry but no fob. It does work with another remote I have from another car, but I don't have a remote to spare. Right front window is off track but motor works.
DRIVEABILITY: Drives out nicely. Steering is tight, asuspension is tight, pulls slightly to the right. Brakes work well with good linings. Solid, quiet exhaust with no leaks. Check engine light is not lit (except at start up as it should.) Belt pulley is squeaky with air on. Tires are a matched set and have about 70% tread remaining rear, 20% front. No complaints - drive anywhere.
