Vehicle Detail
Stunning all-original 1971 Buick Electra Limited 4 Door Hardtop with only 30,000 original Miles! This is an amazing, rare find "top-of-the-line" Buick that runs and drives like a new car and that had only ONE OWNER untill I purchased the car for my private collection several years ago, where it has been kept in a climate-controlled, dark private storage building ever since, driven only for shows, etc. OPTIONS/EQUIPMENT: - All "Limited" trim exterior and interior upgrades (The "top-of-the-line" trim level/model for Buick Electras in 1971). - All-original 455 CID V-8 engine with only 30,000 miles since new (runs and drives superb). - Air conditioning (still works!) - Power windows - Cruise control - Power front bench seat - AM Radio (works fine) - Electric rear defroster - Power trunk release - Cornering lamps - Original front and rear factory floor mats - Full-length body side moldings - White wall radial tires EXTERIOR: - ALL Original "Willowgreen Metallic" laquer paint from the factory that still shines and gleams like new with no cracking. (There are a number of places where the original, elderly owner touched up the paint with the correct, factory touch-up paint that are visible up close, but I have not addressed any of that because I wanted to keep the car all original) - No dents or body damage or rust - EVER . (Some minor dings visible only up close and minor corrosion on the very bottom of the car where there were rock chips over the years) - Chrome is like new with no corrosion, hazing or pitting. - Rare "steel top" model (vinyl top delete from factory). - All glass like new condition. INTERIOR: - All Original broccade cloth interior in striking "bone" color - NO RIPS or CRACKS ANYWHERE! (Even the original door panels are uncracked, which is very rare for these cars!) - Dash and gauges/instruments are like new - no discoloration/pitting or fading, and everything is in working order. - Headliner and carpets also in pristine condition. MECHANICAL: - This care runs and drives like new and is whisper quiet. - To my knowlege, there have neen no prior mechanical repairs, except for routine oil/filter/fluid changes etc. This is a one-of-a-kind collector car in all original condition with super low miles and in a striking color combination. Doubtful there are any other comparable 71 Electras still left out there. This is, however, a 40-plus year old car in original, unrestored condition that is actually driven so it is not a "perfect" 100 point museum piece, nor is it being held out as such. Please ask any and all questions BEFORE bidding. The car is available for inspection at my storage building in Northern Kentucky near the Cincinnati, Ohio International Airport so please make arrangements for any inspections BEFORE bidding. I am not a dealer but a private collector so there are no warranties, express or implied, and the car is being sold as-is, where-is. Please check on all necessary shipping/transportation costs BEFORE bidding, as all such costs will be the responsibility of the buyer (although I will gladly work with your shipper to make the car and title available after full payment is received). Thank you.
