1968 Buick Wildcat Convertible, Frame off Restoration, Multiple Show Winner!!!

I am selling my 1968 Buick Wildcat Convertible. The car is the most perfect example of a Buick Wildcat that you will find in the US. and is a Multiple Show Winner. The Complete Frame-off Restoration was completed by J&C Auto Restoration. which is one of the Top Restoration shops for Classic Cars. This particular car was purchased from a museum in California. and when it arrived it was beautiful. but not up to my specifications. I have always liked the 1968 Buick Wildcats and I wanted this car to be Absolutely Perfect. therefore NO Expense was spared on the Restoration. I have pictures below of the car during its time at J&C Auto Restoration. which catalogs the entire process. All the chrome on the car was sent to Advanced Plating in Nashville. TN and with the amount of Chrome on this car the bill came to just over $5500 in just the chrome work!!!

The car runs and drives like a Big Buick should. and the 360hp/475 ft. lb. of torque motor gives this car the power that it needs to move! The motor is one of the best features about the mechanics of this car with only 29. 00 original miles on the motor. it truly runs like a top. Especially paired up with a smooth shifting transmission. This car is the definition of a dream cruiser. The car has all the options that you would want on your weekend cruise such as Factory Air Conditioning. Power Windows. and a Power Folding Convertible Top. The car's interior was also redone during the restoration process and is as good or better than it was when the car was in a showroom. The car also has the factory chrome mag wheels with the Wildcat center caps.

When looking at the pictures below. notice the process that J&C Auto Restoration took in perfecting this car. Look at the perfect gaps between body panels and the straightness of all the body panels. There isn't an imperfection anywhere on the body of the car! Even underneath the car is in Show Quality Condition. If you are looking for a car that you can cruise and enjoy the sun then take to car shows and have a garage full of trophies then this Wildcat is your answer.

If you have any questions at all. I would be more than glad to answer them or give you more information about the car. Call Rommie at 843-458-7997.
The car is for sale locally. and I reserve the right to end the auction early
