AS-IS Up for auction is an amazing car, the infamous Deuce & a quarter The Electra 225. This 1971 Electra is in overall great condition,2 door matte black hardtop with tinted windows.Turbo Hydraflow automatic transmission. Interior seating is a dark green. Low mileage. The driver side seat has been damaged over time (please see photos) The passenger & rear bench are in top shape. Steering wheel has no emblem but does have an after-the-fact horn button (added by the previous owner) Power windows still work, non-power locks. Added on CD player with new speakers above rear bench. CD-player is USB compatible Ipod compatible & Pandora compatible. Car has been fitted with a great glasspack & muffler, has a very deep throaty sound. Combined with the solid black paint and overall profile you'll be turning heads everywhere you go! This car is powerful yet smooth, can be driven hard & fast or cruised in style. Power steering is extremely smooth, handles great for such a large framed car of its age! This is a big car, has HUGE trunk space and can comfortably fit 3 in the back and 2 in front, a 3rd can squeeze in the front if needed as well. Recently had the radiator hoses replaced. Carb was rebuilt in late 2010. The body is in great shape, small dent on right side (mid body) was long painted over when purchased. The car was one of my daily drivers, very reliable and very very fast The BAD: Needs a new battery, current battery is at the end of its life AC needs freon but did work thru the summer of 2011 Steering wheel missing original Buick logo One tire likes to lose air randomly (had to fill it back up to match the other tires by about 10 every 3-4 weeks) Due to business deployment I am not home enough to enjoy or take care of the car, have been away since Mid December. I had a week home in January when I fired it up and took it for a quick spin. After that its been sitting undriven. I was told by a family member that the battery needed to be fully charged overnight recently for the car to fire up. Was told it turned twice and then the lights and stereo died out as the battery failed. When I last left my mechanic did inform me the battery was failing so I wasn't surprised to hear this. The car could also use an oil change as it's been about 2500-3000 miles since its last change (plus about 3 1/2 months after those miles) While I do love this car I feel it's time to let it go, send it off to its next awesome home & owner. As things stand now it's sitting there unadmired and aching to grab attention. Use it as your daily driver, or do some work to make it more powerful or even turn it into a show car with enough time put in! Title is clear This car is being sold AS-IS with NO WARRANTY. While it has been reliable for me it is an older car which has its fair share of typical wear & I cannot be responsible for any unforeseen issues. As stated it was driven fine in early January & last fired up (but not driven) early March after having it's battery recharged over night. Shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
