With a name like Electra, this car is sure to be an interesting lady! The lady in question is Buick’s full-size offering from 1959 to 1990. Produced over six generations, the Electra was named after a Texan sculptor and socialite called Electra Waggoner Biggs. This lady was, incidentally, the sister-in-law of then-GM president Harlow H. Curtice. This lady must have been quite a charismatic person, because the Lockheed Electra airliner is also supposedly named after her! That’s why we’re sure that you’ll find this 120,000-mile 1970 Buick Electra 225 to be an interesting and characterful American classic car to own and drive. We’re told that all maintenance is up to date as well, making this car a great buy.
Exterior and Interior
This yellow 1970 Buick Electra 225 comes from the third generation of the marque, and sits pretty on its wire wheels. You’ll also have noticed that the car is a convertible, with a black canvas top. Since the Electra was Buick’s top-range full-size car, the convertible top is, as you’d expect, power-operated. So there’s no need to get your hands dirty with deploying or lowering it when needed. Instead, you can push a button and let the electrics do their thing. The four-seat interior of this 1970 Buick Electra 225 is an opulent affair in black with eye-catching yellow piping. There’s some wood trim as well, since wood is always a sign of luxury in the automotive world. The car’s dashboard remains original, right down to the push-button radio, but there’s a more modern Pioneer head unit in the center console, with a USB port and AUX input. There’s also air conditioning and heating, if the choices on the driver side-mounted ventilation system control panel are all functional.
Engine
Powering this 1970 Buick Electra 225 is a massive V8 that displaces 455ci and is factory rated for 370 horsepower. Drive goes to the rear wheels through a 3-speed TH400 automatic transmission for that signature laid-back driving experience that befits a full-size car of this ilk. However, it uses drum brakes, so you’d better be smooth with your driving. Who wants to hustle a large luxury car anyways? It's always better to prolong the journey and enjoy the ambiance.
