1972 Buick Electra 225 Custom Hardtop 2-door 7.5l on 2040-cars
Boxford, Massachusetts, United States
|
This is a beautiful 1972 Buick Electra Limited 225. I am only the second owner. The original owner was a auto engineer for GM in Detroit. I bought if from his daughters when he passed away. He used this car to go on vacation every year to Arizona. I believe it to be all original with only 46000 miles. I have only owned it since 2006 and it has been garaged the whole time. The paint is smooth and shiny and in excellent condition. The interior is near perfect. There is a small split in the vinyl on the drivers door. No ripped seats. Carpets are perfect. It has original floor mats. I installed a CD stereo with I-Pod connection where the Ash tray was. It could be removed and the ash tray put back (I kept the ashtray). It has a CB Radio that was installed in 1976 and I have the receipt and warrenty from the CB. I have the original paper work and manual for the vehicle as well as the original Warrenty. I have many of the old repair tickets from the car. I just got a valve job and new battery. Just got new points, carb rebuild, Lube, oil and filter and a coolant flush. All the power accessories work (power windows, Lock, Seats, trunck pop, speed control, power steering, cruise control) except the air conditioning is not cold. This car would be a great daily driver or not much to do to put it in show condition. Feel free to call or e-mail me with questions 617-974-4297 I love to talk about it. This is the same car I had when I first got my license years ago. |

Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China
Fri, 19 Apr 2013It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
