I know you're right. The Buick is really my only car project right now and I need it to stay that way if I ever want it to get done. Don't wanna be that guy with 15 cars in the yard that "I'm gonna fix someday" and that's a slippery slope.

Still like the old Monza 2+2s. Bought one new in 76. Red/Orange, tan interior, V-8, auto. Put a rear spoiler on and BR 60/13s TAs on 7 inch wide wheels.
Worked with a guy in 89-90 from the Kitanning area that had that same H/O.It was in about the same condition back then. You'd have to have deep pockets and good skills to restore that one. And after all that what's it going to be worth? If you put the same money into a 66÷70 442 you'd get a damn good return.
I have always loved Sunbirds. I built an 80 with a TBI 2.5 and a T5 from an S15. Set it up with 5 lugs on Cragar Street Stars. Got 30 mpg and was one of my favorite cars ever. Powertoured it one year. And daily drove it for a lot more.Wrecked now. Looking for another.
I think their definition of barn find is different than mine. Looks like it has spent the vast majority of it's life on the road during Pennsylvania's harsh winters.
I’d pass. Last year there was one of those locally in better shape and with the parts car for $3000
I live on that very slope. Move in there's plenty of room, except in the garage. 😂
