With the 50s and the land yacht era coming to a steady halt, cars were now geared to be smaller and more performance-oriented, but what if you weren't ready to embrace this change and wanted a good old American machine that sports all the luxuries and uber cool design? The Buick Electra was the one to go for. With its iconic looks and class, the Electra ensured the old-school land yachts lived to fight another day and stand out from the crowd. Present today is a diamond in the rough and a true survivor of the 60s reported to be a numbers-matching vehicle, this 1961 Buick Electra 225 is truly a catch in today's world of resto-modding and trying to stand out.
The second generation design of the Buick Electra is hands down the one that stands out the most compared to all the other generations. The silver exterior on this 1961 Buick Electra 225 helps showcase the "shark" like design and other iconic design features like the four venti ports on the fender and front fender plaques. The current owner reports that the car sports its original paint from 1961. Look around, and also note all the car's exterior components are present, with the chrome helping shine out that silver exterior well. In terms of shoes, this old-school American sits on factory hubcaps, reportedly wrapped with new whitewall tires. The silver interior of this 1961 Buick Electra 225 is claimed to be original and nothing short of automotive art. Once you are in a comfy one can truly admire features like the bench seats, which help overlook all the nickel components and other factory interior trim.
The moment you pop the hood of this Buick Electra 225, you sense that everything is original. The engine bay may not look like the pages of an automotive magazine with billet upgrades and fancy colors, but it proudly sports its battle scars and years of careful usage. The 401ci (6.6L V8) powertrain chugs along to this day and is the perfect-sized powertrain to power up this mammoth-sized automobile. The current owner reports a recent oil change to ensure a smooth transition of power. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission.
