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.
The 1999 Buick Riviera Silver Arrow Limited Edition marked the end of an era, serving as a commemorative send-off for the Riviera nameplate after decades as one of Buick’s most distinctive personal luxury coupes. This example is #27 of just 200 produced and shows only 28,978 miles. Finished in Sterling Silver Metallic over a Medium Gray leather interior, it pairs understated late-1990s luxury with the stronger personality of Buick’s supercharged 3800 Series II V6. Special Silver Arrow badging, interior logos, and its numbered plaque distinguish this car from a standard Riviera, while the low production count gives it genuine collector appeal.
The 1942 Buick Super 4-Door Touring Sedan comes from a brief and historically significant model year, with civilian automobile production soon giving way to wartime priorities. Showing approximately 78,842 miles, this example is powered by Buick’s 248ci “Fireball” inline-eight, bored .030-inch over, and paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. Finished in gray over a gray interior, it retains the formal proportions and unmistakable prewar character of Buick’s Super line while also benefiting from a refreshed front suspension. The current owner notes that the radio, heater, and temperature gauge are inoperable, and the car retains its original spare tire.
This 1957 Buick Roadmaster Riviera 2-Door Hardtop is pure late-1950s American excess in the best possible way, combining dramatic Harley Earl-era styling with the torque-rich character of Buick’s Nailhead V8. Showing approximately 14,574 miles, this example was refurbished in the late 2000s and is finished in Dover White and Bittersweet Red over a Rust and Ivory interior. The car was later upgraded with an Air Lift Performance air suspension system. Add in power steering, power brakes, power windows, a power front bench seat, Hot Rod Air climate control, and wide whitewalls, and this Roadmaster delivers the extravagant look of a flagship ’50s Buick with a few thoughtful upgrades that make it even more enjoyable today.
The 1964 Chevrolet Impala 4-Door Sedan captures the long, low, unmistakable style that made Chevrolet’s full-size cars such icons of the 1960s. Showing approximately 28,076 miles, this example combines a 327ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, while power steering and power brakes make it considerably easier to enjoy from behind the wheel. Finished in Red over a Black interior, it also benefits from tasteful modern upgrades including aftermarket coilover suspension and a Bluetooth-capable sound system, adding usability without taking away from the car’s classic character.
This 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Restomod takes the unmistakable shape of Chevrolet’s second-generation F-body and gives it a much more aggressive enthusiast-focused personality. Showing approximately 752 miles, this example combines a 383ci stroker V8 with a 750 CFM Holley 4-barrel carburetor and a 4-speed manual transmission, giving it the kind of old-school muscle-car formula that puts driver involvement front and center. Finished in Black with custom Purple & Red flame graphics, this Camaro also features a Hurst shifter, Grant GT steering wheel, aftermarket gauges, and a number of exterior and audio upgrades that give it a distinctly custom-built character.
The 1966 Plymouth Belvedere II Hardtop is the kind of Mopar that gets enthusiasts interested before the hood is even opened. Its clean B-body lines, pillarless hardtop profile, Soft Yellow paint, black vinyl roof, and Magnum 500-style wheels give it the restrained factory muscle look of the mid-1960s, but this example carries much more serious hardware underneath. Showing approximately 91,610 miles, it is powered by a 440ci big-block V8 backed by a TorqueFlite 727 automatic, giving it the kind of drivetrain combination that feels right at home in a classic Plymouth. Add power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning, and a dual exhaust system, and this Belvedere blends old-school Mopar attitude with enough comfort to make it more than just a weekend bruiser.
