    I wouldn't be embarrassed to drive that Buick. Just needs a detail

    • @christopherhamilton5557
      @christopherhamilton5557 Год назад +5

      That Buick looks amazing. Probably needs a fuel pump and fresh gas.

      @11.9lsupercharged4 Год назад +2

      Ik randy said you can't work on cars and risk his business if he gets thrown out but I'd keep a little starter fluid or gas inside a perfume or cologne bottle. Might give you a little more confirmation if it's a fuel issue

    That Ranger is awesome!!!! A new paint job would do wonders for it even with the hail damage. Those are tough little trucks. That Buick was absolutely beautiful, too.

    • @JohnMiller-zn9pf
      @JohnMiller-zn9pf Год назад

      agreed, even if it's just a sanding and clear coat to stop the rust

  • @2003cobramustang
    @2003cobramustang Год назад +27

    That old Buick is in such good shape! I’d definitely drive it! Looks like the Benz needs a lot of work! Neon great beater. Good little truck for Mike

  • @darylkik6204
    @darylkik6204 Год назад +8

    The knob on the steering wheel was called a "Suicide Knob' I believe. Our 49 Plymouth had one due to how big and hard the wheel was to turn at a stop.

  • @grimreaper5521

    Just by the condition of the Buick you can tell somebody loved that car

  • @JMD-tu1xm

  • @movieguy1985
    @movieguy1985 Год назад +4

    Jump on that Buick before someone else does!!! Definitely worth saving it...damn I wish older cars like that were more available up here in Canada.

  • @EricGrover
    @EricGrover Год назад +2

    That is a nice Buick Century. Many years ago, I. had a 1989 Buick Century that was midnight blue, I loved that car...:)

  • @TruthyToo
    @TruthyToo Год назад +5

    Randy, you should do follow up videos letting us know what things sold for. Would be fairly simple content to make why you are recovering.

  • @JohnMiller-zn9pf
    @JohnMiller-zn9pf Год назад +4

    That little ranger would make a great work/farm truck. Something to haul trash, quick depot runs etc.

  • @Blah7785
    @Blah7785 Год назад +4

    Definitely a throwback I had a 94 burgundy century and that car was fantastic! Would be nice to have another as a daily....Get the Buick Randy....Hey MWM 🙂

  • @Seeingred21
    @Seeingred21 Год назад +4

    Had an 85 and later an 86 Century, which were pretty much identical to that 92 except both had the Iron Duke, so they were a bit lethargic, but THE most comfortable road cruisers... were very reliable and got great gas mileage. Didn't care at all that they were "grandpa" cars because they were so comfy and smooth.
    I'd love to be able to own another one but I won't... because the 85 burned and the 86 got t-boned. I think they're cursed for me.

  • @dubgaragenorth8143
    @dubgaragenorth8143 Год назад +12

    I'd be buying that Buick. Basic, but reliable.

  • @haskellburks
    @haskellburks Год назад +3

    Hello Randy. The 1990 Buick Century is an awesome car. I think you should bid on it for a give away car.

  • @Oyvind88
    @Oyvind88 Год назад +1

    Great one guys😎👌
    That Buick is a score, loved by someone and the ford pickup is a nice daily truck👏

  • @redneckbryon
    @redneckbryon Год назад +4

    I'm surprised you didn't point out the overspray on the windows on the Neon.
    Strange car, power windows in the front, manual in the back.

    • @brian5o
      @brian5o Год назад

      Yea, that is strange but was a Neon thing. There was some reason that they did that, I can't remember why right now but all of them were like that, even the SRT-4s.

  • @fixitfrank412
    @fixitfrank412 Год назад +1

    I love the 3300 in that Buick, great motor with loads of torque!!

  • @01trsmar
    @01trsmar Год назад +1

    Poverty Caps is a well known term people used for Dog Dish Hubcaps,again Dog Dish is another term.
    Full hubcaps were top options,some design of hubcaps were the same price as mag type wheels either steel or aluminum..Again depending on trim and style of hubcap..
    Buick is in really good shape!

  • @esautrash
    @esautrash Год назад

    that buick needs some love, it breaks my heart to see it just sitting in a place like that.
    If you happen you buy it, we would love to see it running again, like the Tempo.

    @StaredownGames Год назад

    I had the 1986 Century Coupe. Rarest car I've ever owned. I've never seen another one. That quad 4 ran like a top! There's a reason those lil postal trucks ran with it!

    @johnl3230 Год назад +3

    That Buick is sweet! Also that ranger deserves a paint job, that truck surprised me on how good it runs. Ford definitely doesn't make them like that anymore.

  • @williamcochell9889
    @williamcochell9889 Год назад +3

    Hey Randy, look forward to your videos every day! I think that Buick if it’s almost free could be a really good deal! Low mileage, interior looks great! body not that bad! could be really good transportation for someone for next to nothing! looking forward to seeing how your bid Went!

  • @joshuadugan1931
    @joshuadugan1931 Год назад +6

    Currently diving a 93 Pontiac Grand Am with the 3300. It's just a smaller version of the 3800. Super reliable! My car has 224,000 miles and climbing. Its my daily. I'd like to find a Buick Century or Olds Cutlass Ciera Wagon with this engine to make my daily driver so I can run the Grand Am in the 24 hours of lemons race. 😝

    I have owned a few Buicks and they are amazing cars. My current one is a white with black trim and the rally looking wheels 1996 Buick century sedan 3.1L V6. Btw the one you have didn't come with the trunk release option that should be where that circle is in the glove compartment

    I daily a ‘92 century with 80k. Picked it up with 78k last month. Can’t kill that 3300. You do ask how cheap you can get those tail lights, lol. They aren’t cheap. Several hundred $$ on ebay.

  • @TheManThatCan1002
    @TheManThatCan1002 Год назад

    My friend and I picked one of these up here recently about the same condition with a vinyl top, he liked it and it drove great after some basic repairs, but the police just would not leave him alone in it, so he ultimately traded it for a newer vehicle.

    My best friends mom had one of these when I was younger had a 92 Buick Century, they reminds me a lot of my grandma's Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. She had 3 of those things that I can remember in my lifetime. 😂 It is a Chrysler thing we had bought 2 Chrysler's brand new after 2 years it had a squeal that would go away after it ran for a couple of seconds.

  • @dustyshacklesh4804
    @dustyshacklesh4804 Год назад

    The Buick is a awesome car i had a olds ciera (same thing) it was a beast in the snow. The century should have a metal tank as my 93 ciera did costed less then 150 for new tank straps sending unit and pump

    @Captain_DeSync Год назад +4

    Augh that Buick looks incredibly good for its age. I’d say it’s worth it to try and get it running if you can get it cheap enough. (I don’t see why you couldn’t lol)

  • @wisedevolver2741
    @wisedevolver2741 Год назад

    You might be condemning Mike to death suggesting that he tow his Mercedes behind the ranger. The 4.0 will have no problem with it, but the ranger has very soft suspension and doesn't weigh enough. It would be very squirrelly, for sure.
