Probably only dangerous to whatever unfortunate enough to be hit by a 1975 fleetwood! 😳🤣✅

What could you possibly have done to the entire car that would require you to have that engine needing a rebuild at such low mileage?  Just sayin' James

I have come across sellers who dont understand engines at all.
The engine was resealed with maybe a top end service and they will call
it a full rebuild. You can fix a Caddy, but you cant fix stupid.

Not long ago there was a magazine article of two air-bag equipped early '70s Impalas that were crash tested when the cars were nearly 50 years old. One was pulled from a junkyard; the other from a barn. To their surprise, both airbags deployed exactly as designed.

In the mid 70s GM had a big issue with camshafts wearing.

Reserve not met, with final price at $6,789?  While the hyperbole of $16,000 spent to get it to this point may have scared some off, I would think it would end a bit higher.  I just don't like reserve auctions that leave a person guessing what the seller truly wants for a car.
