The fight to be the perfect Sunday cruiser can be a tricky one. Some might want a bit of performance whilst some prefer to slow down and enjoy every mile in a laid-back and chilled-out fashion. Whichever way you look at it nothing beats a good old American classic on a Sunday drive to perfectly sum up a hectic week. If you are the type that likes to slow it down and treasure every Sunday drive this 1967 Buick Electra 225 Convertible that we have today might be a good option. The current owner has had the car since 1997 and it’s located in Missouri with a reported original 95,000 miles on the clock. Not a particularly common bird, this Buick Electra could represent a savvy future investment too.
The 1965 model year saw General Motors redesigning their entire passenger model line ups and the Buick Electra was one of them. The new design called for flowing coke-bottle lines with fastback roof profiles. The exterior on this 1967 Buick Electra 225 Convertible really compliments those design features with its characteristic Sixties Aquamarine paint job that brings out its behemoth status quite well. The paint is in great condition due to the car being painted in 2015. To match its exterior, the convertible hood is white in color. The car rides on the original Buick hubcaps which really goes along with the abundance of chrome on the car, all of which is in great shape too. Matching the exterior color of this car can be tough but a good old black interior sure does the job well. The car is finished off with a black leather interior with the front and back seats being in perfect order. The rest of the interior is also in amazing condition as well with the carpets being brand new. Also present in the vehicle is the original Buick Am/FM player which completes this original interior really well.
With a car this size, it’s only natural that there is a sizable engine to power it and keeps it chugging along, and this is the exact case with this 1967 Buick Electra 225 Convertible. Powering the car is reportedly its original engine which is the 430ci (7.0L) Buick V8 engine. Whilst the engine is big in size it’s not geared for performance but smooth delivery of power making it an ideal cruiser. Power is set to its rear wheels through a three-speed Super Turbine 400 automatic gearbox. Gears are selected via a column shifter giving it that old school feel. Stopping power is made possible with Drum brakes all around. Also included in the sale is a spare driveshaft.

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 Electra was Buick’s nameplate from 1959 to 1990 for its flagship, full-size luxury car offering. Taking over from the Roadmaster, six generations of Electra would see the light of day. The name Electra was based on a person, Texan sculptor and socialite Electra Waggoner Biggs. No doubt it was also helped by the fact that Electra was the sister-in-law of then-GM President Harlow H. Curtice. This 1974 Buick Electra 225 Limited that we've got for sale is a fourth-generation example with 100,497 miles on the odometer and a slice of what Seventies luxury motoring was like.
A long-running model from Buick was the Buick Electra. Introduced in 1959 and produced for over three decades until 1990, the Electra spanned six generations of full-sized luxury car craftsmanship. The Electra is thus considered a collectible, especially for the first few generations. What we have in store for you is a highly desirable third-generation 1966 Buick Electra 225 with just 82,500 miles on the clock after 55 years on the road, it is also available to be seen in the Peach State, Georgia.
Buick’s midsize offering from 1973 to 2004, the Regal, entered the market just as the Malaise Era was getting started. So, instead of moaning about the stringent emissions and economy regulations, Buick made it a bit more upmarket than segment contenders. Then, the second generation came about in 1978, bringing with it fresh styling and a station wagon body style. Then, in 1982, the Grand National trim came out, to celebrate Buick winning the Manufacturers Cup in 1981 and 1982 for the NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National. Buick proudly advertised the car as “What wins on Sunday sells on Monday”. Up for sale today is a 1985 Buick Regal Grand National, but one that’s been extensively modified. The car pushes a four-figure horsepower digit at the wheels, and the current owner proudly tells us that it does a 5.2 in the 1/8th at 131mph. Want more figures? How about an 8.4 in the quarter mile, passing the line at a staggering 161mph? Furthermore, this build has just 4,500 miles on it, and comes with some creature comforts that make it a viable regular car when required.
Cars from 1950 are getting rarer. During that time, automakers went above and beyond to produce works of art on wheels. Classic car enthusiasts know well enough that these icons are worth preserving, but there is a cost, namely convenience. That's when the topic of restoration comes up. Users can add modern amenities that make everyday life with the car more comfortable while still enjoying the nostalgia of the bygone era. This 1950 Buick Super is an excellent example of a classic that has been tastefully restored. According to reports, it has only been 2,000 miles since its full restoration.
If one were to hear the brand name Buick, what would spring to mind are some of the most impressive classic cars in history. An interesting fact about Buick is that it was among the first American automobile brands and was the company that established General Motors. It was founded more than a century ago and granted the world with fascinating automobiles that are coveted today. The Buick Special, otherwise known as the Series 40, is a model line produced by the company that was usually its lowest-priced model. In the year 1940, Buick marketed their year lineup as new and improved, and our subject, the 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Coupe, was among them.
