1990 Buick Reatta runs strong needs restoration. Rare hand-built convertible in good restorable condition.
This Reatta has 123k miles. The car drives good, the 3800 engine runs strong and the transmission shifts good. I bought it to restore for the spring, but need to sell. It would make an excellent winter project. I will list the good points and work I know it needs done. Most of the work is minor or cosmetic. I have been driving the car regularly
The good:
The engine starts right up, no noise or smoke.
The transmission shifts good with no issues.
The car gives a decent ride, no major issues ( rotors pulsing some)
The body looks straight and solid
99% rustfree, very minimal surface rust underneath, no holes or cancer.
The interior is in good shape for its age, the leather seats look nice with no damage.
The power windows, lock, mirrors work
Dash instruments work ( I think cluster was improved over earlier models)
Starter, alternator, lights working
The bad:
frame damage or repair, so not sure why. The car has been driven 100k since.
The car needs a convertible top.
The car needs tires. They hold air, but down to the cords.
Minor stuff:
The headlights stay up. They work and can be wound down manually.
The AC service light is on, may need AC charge.
Check engine light and abs light on intermittently.
Recommend brakes gone over, rotors rusty.
Overall a good running Reatta I would not hesitate to
drive with new tires and minor maintenance. These cars are appreciating in value with
restored examples going for 10-15k. This one is sold with no reserve.
All vehicles are sold as is. I allow inspection before and after the sale. If you are not satisfied with the car for any reason you do not have to complete the sale.
