Background Story of this 1965 Buick Electra

Overview of 1965 Buick Electra For Sale by Owner

The 1960s were an era defined by style, performance, and presence—and the 1965 Buick Electra 225 Convertible embodied all three. With only a reported 54,240 miles on the odometer, this well-preserved example is powered by Buick’s formidable 401ci “Wildcat” Nailhead V8 paired with a 4-barrel carburetor and a smooth 3-speed Super Turbine 400 automatic transmission. Finished in an elegant white exterior with a black vinyl interior and matching black convertible soft top, it rides on classic 15-inch steel wheels adorned with full Buick chrome hubcaps. Power-assisted drum brakes at all four corners ensure confident stopping, while rear-wheel drive delivers the traditional, commanding driving experience of a full-size American luxury convertible. A true gentle giant of its time, the Electra 225 blends muscular underpinnings with refined comfort.

Exterior and Interior

There is no denying that this 1965 Buick Electra 225 Convertible is what the internet and car folk refer to as a “Land Yacht”, a walk around can clock in a mighty amount of steps on your smart watch, but it is a walk that will include stops to examine every detail this classic American car has to offer. Dressed in a lovely white exterior, the exterior color of this '60s beauty helps make its already large design more significant. On closer inspection of the exterior, you would find a clean exterior that hasn't been fettled with to stand out; this Buick Electra is all factory looks without pretending to be something else. The black convertible top, all the car's chrome, and even period-correct hubcaps are in place to push out that factory aesthetic. Step into the '60s in all its glory and quirkiness, look around, and you are treated to a factory interior cabin complete with all its features and styling intact. Get comfy with leather bench seats and the sight of wood and nickel instantly creates a perception of luxury and class, a quick peek at the rear and you even have space for more family and friends to tag along for the ride.

Engine

Complimenting all that excess in terms of size and luxury is the equivalent of excess in cubic capacity - it really is the good type of excess. Pop open the hood of this 1965 Buick Electra 225 Convertible, and what you will find is a 401ci Buick “Wildcat” Nailhead V8 engine ready to bring out a whole lot of smoothness to your drive experience. Speaking of smooth, the current owner reports a front A-arm suspension system and a rear 4-link coil spring suspension system to iron out the road ahead. This classic channels all its gentle performance to its rear wheels through a 3-speed Super Turbine 400 automatic transmission.

1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$49,990

The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.

This example, a 1965 model, carries the legendary 401 cubic-inch “Nailhead” V8 paired to a smooth-shifting ST-400 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing 20,446 miles on the odometer, it has been repainted in an eye-catching orange finish and fitted with aftermarket wheels, setting it apart while still honoring the car’s bold original character.

1969 Oldsmobile 442

PENDING SALE
$82,000

Now here’s a legend of the muscle car scene, the fearsome Oldsmobile 442. Made between 1964 and 1980 as a proper performance machine, it was well-known for decimating nearly all comers at the drag strip. The 442 was potent out of the box, but it could also be tuned with near unlimited scope. Today, those who seek a 442 do so not only for its performative capabilities but its style as well. That’s why we are proud to offer this Torrance-based second-generation 1969 Oldsmobile 442 for sale. With under 107,000 miles, it’s definitely been enjoyed but has so much more to give. Of course when you’ve got a 400ci V8 under the hood and a stick shift to control it with, you don’t want to end journeys too quickly…

PENDING SALE
$49,987

One of Chevy’s immediate post-war stalwarts, the Fleetline was a car that was aimed at getting Americans up and about in a post-war world of promise. It was offered in various forms including as a two-door coupe and four-door sedan. With its classic Forties lines, it’s a desirable classic today, but becoming increasingly hard to maintain in period form. That’s why it’s also an ideal restomod platform, as showcased by this California-based 1951 Chevrolet Fleetline Deluxe Restomod. With its 350ci V8, air conditioning and automatic gearbox, this fine Fleetline could be yours if you wish.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

PENDING SALE
$109,999

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
