This is a 1963 Buick Electra 225. This black/on gray has approximately 81,500 original miles. Under the hood you will find the Wildcat 445 engine. The 445 is not the Cubic Inch displacement of the engine, but the foot pounds of torque produced by the engine. The engine in the Electra was called the Nailhead. This engine has lost of power. Within the last 3 months the fuel lines have been replaced, the fuel-tank has been refurbished, the original carburetor has been rebuilt, battery has been replaced, points, etc. The paint is all original and clean. The only body rust is two rust spots on the lower front fenders and the rear passenger rocker panel. The floors, frame, quarters, and trunk are solid. The interior should be re-done, but is presentable if you were to put on seat covers. All the original stainless trim is present, dent free, and still shines. The chrome is showing some wear, but still looks nice. The rear bumper has two small approximately 1" holes from the exhaust, which should be an easy fix for the buyer to make. The hubcaps are in great shape. All the lights, wipers, cigarette lighter, horn, etc. still work as they should. This would be a great car to restore as you drive, make into a rat rod, or just pack up the family and head off to the cruise night. Inspections are welcomed and encouraged before bidding.
