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 dusting off Grand National, GNX and T-Type nameplates
Mon, 26 Nov 2012Inside Line reports Buick is planning to bring back some of the more storied names from the company's past, including the Grand National, GNX and the T-Type. Those cars rose to prominence in the 1970s and '80s to become performance legends of their day.
The new models will reportedly make use of the rear-wheel drive platform that currently underpins the Cadillac ATS and all would arrive as sedans - according to an unnamed source familiar with the initiative. Odds are the T-Type and the Grand National would share a driveline, with honest money being on a new twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 as the engine of choice. Word has it the mill will be good for anywhere from 350 to 400 horsepower.
That leaves only the GNX. Inside Line seems to think that machine could get down the road with some help from the all-new GM LT1 small-block V8. The engineers behind the ATS platform have already told us the engine bay is large enough for to accommodate the big eight pot, and since GM is most certainly working on an ATS-V, a slightly less powerful, less luxurious Buick iteration makes some kind of sense. We can't wait to see these things in the light of day.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
