This is a 1963 Buick Electra 225. This black/on gray has approximately 81,500 original miles. Under the hood you will find the Wildcat 445 engine. The 445 is not the Cubic Inch displacement of the engine, but the foot pounds of torque produced by the engine. The engine in the Electra was called the Nailhead. This engine has lost of power.

Within the last 3 months the fuel lines have been replaced, the fuel-tank has been refurbished, the original carburetor has been rebuilt, battery has been replaced, points, etc.

The paint is all original and clean. The only body rust is two rust spots on the lower front fenders and the rear passenger rocker panel. The floors, frame, quarters, and trunk are solid.

The interior should be re-done, but is presentable if you were to put on seat covers.

All the original stainless trim is present, dent free, and still shines. The chrome is showing some wear, but still looks nice. The rear bumper has two small approximately 1" holes from the exhaust, which should be an easy fix for the buyer to make.

The hubcaps are in great shape. All the lights, wipers, cigarette lighter, horn, etc. still work as they should.

This would be a great car to restore as you drive, make into a rat rod, or just pack up the family and head off to the cruise night.

Inspections are welcomed and encouraged before bidding.

Updated Buick LaCrosse, Regal to debut at New York Auto Show

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Judging by the spy shots we saw last week for the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and 2014 Buick Regal, we knew it wouldn't be much longer until we saw both sedans receive a grand debut. Today, Buick confirmed to Autoblog both cars will be introduced at the New York Auto Show next month, but no further information has yet been released about either model.
Having been on the market for an extra couple years, the changes to the LaCrosse appear to be more significant than those coming for the Regal, but both will be getting refreshed exterior designs as well as updated interiors. The Regal's new face brings it more in line with the all-new Encore and the restyled Enclave, while the LaCrosse should get a more distinctive, upscale appearance.
Both cars will be introduced exactly a month from today, and we'll be there to bring you all the coverage.

Buick Riviera Concept hits the floor in Shanghai

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Here we have a concept in the true sense of the term. The Buick Riviera you see here - the name of which was last used in production back in 1999 - is said to preview Buick's future styling direction, which means we should expect to see more flowing body shapes to go along with new versions of the marque's classic waterfall grille design. Oh, and we don't believe there's a single porthole in sight.
Powered by Buick's so-called dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system (we'll stick with the W-PHEV acronym) that allows the car to be charged wirelessly just by driving atop a special charging mat on the ground, the car's powertrain is just as futuristic as its exterior shape.
Other high-tech bits include holographic projections on the windshield showing the driver what's around him, with input coming from 10 high-res cameras and 18 micro high-precision sensors. The car also sports 4G wireless connectivity so that its occupants are always connected.

2015 Buick Verano gets styling tweak, loses 6-speed manual

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Well, all good things must come to an end. For 2015, the Buick Verano's experiment with a manual transmission will cease, as the American manufacturer has announced it will discontinue the 6MT in the turbocharged version of its compact sedan. According to Buick, the take rate on the Verano Turbo 6MT was (unsurprisingly) low, leading to its discontinuation.
That's not the only bit of news for the Verano, though. After a few years on the market, Buick has seen fit to refresh the popular sedan. The visual changes aren't huge, really, with subtle tweaks to the headlights and taillights. We'd bargain that the average passer-by wouldn't notice a difference between the two.
The main aesthetic change is a new appearance package, available on the mid-range Convenience and Leather option groups. Unimaginatively called just that - Appearance Package - it offers up a new paint color, Desert Dusk Metallic, as well as a grille treatment and a rear spoiler. The new package is, however, limited to naturally aspirated models.
