These cars cost so much back then relative to other muscle cars and for this reason they are so rare. I would have to pull our window stickers but they were $5-6,000.00 new. So it would be like ging to dealers today and having a choice between a 442 or a Chevelle for 30,000.00-40,000.00 or buying one of these two Buicks for $50,000.00 to $60,000.00. Not many would turn losse or had the capacity to spend the additional Franklin brothers.

I do not think you will see restos like these two again. All restos are not equal. If you look at these cars you will see what I mean. It just costs too much to go to this degree of detail and the parts for Buicks are just not there.
