1970 Buick Electra Description

FOR SALE THIS 1970 BUICK ELECTRA 225 CONVERTIBLE

THIS BUICK IS A TRUE BARN FIND FROM CLINTON MICHIGAN 49236,THE PREVIOUS OWNER A ELDERLY GENTLEMAN HAD A COLLECTION OF 30 VARIOUS CARS AND WHEN HE PASSED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE IT FROM HIS FAMLIY, OTS OF PEOPLE SAY THAT THIER CARS ARE BARN FINDS, ND YOU HAVE TO TAKE THIER WORD FOR IT,NOT WITH THIS ONE !!I TOOK THE PICTURES OF THE CAR WHEN I PULLED IT OUT OF THE BARN AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE PICTURES !!! THERE WAS A CONCRETE FLOOR AND IT WAS ALSO HEATED(ALSO PICTURED) SO THERE IS NO ROT TO THE FLOORS..THE INTERIOR HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND IN WHAT I CONSIDER EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR ITS AGE, UST THE BREAKING OF SOME THREAD TO THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BOTTOM.THERE ARE NO CRACKS IN THE DASH AND THE CARPET IS IN REALLY NICE SHAPE

THE EXTERIOR IS ALSO IN GREAT SHAP, IT DOES SHOW SOME SIGNS OF REPAINTING ON THEDRIVERS SIDE WHERE THE SON OF THE OWNER SAID HE SCRAPED IT AGAINST THE BARN AND HAD IT REPAINTED...THERE IS A SMALL AREA OF SURFACE RUST BEHIND THE PASSENGER REAR WHEEL AND AND ON THE LIP OF THE TRUNK LID AS ALL OF THESE DO...

THE CONVERTIBLE TOP APPEARS TO BE IN GREAT SHAPE WITH NO LEAKS AND THE ORIGINAL GLASS REAR WINDO, THE TOP GOES DOWN AS IT SHOULD BUT NEEDS A LITTLE PUSH GOING UP DUE TO LOW HYDRAULIC FLUID.

THE MOTOR IS THE ORIGINAL 455 WITH MATCHING NUMBERS,NOT MODIFIED AND ALL THERE, HE A/C COMPRESSER IS WORKING AND BLOWS BUT WILL NEED FREON AND HAS NOT BEEN CONVERTED TO THAT NEW STUFF AND 2 CANS OF R12 FEON WILL COME WITH THE CAR. 73000 ORIGINAL MILES

THE MUFFLER APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT SOMETIME AND THE CAR STILL HAS THE RESINATOR AND SOUNDS GREAT....

THIS IS A VERY NICE CAR AND IN MY OPINION IT IS DRIVABLE ANY REASONABLE DISTANCE

IT HAS NEWER TIRES NOT DRY ROTTED,THE WIPERS,SIGNALS,HEAT,DEFROST,BRAKE LIGHTS ALL WORK AS THEY SHOULD

THE STERRING IS ALIGNED AS IT SHOULD BE WITH NO PULLING OR SWAYING

THE CAR HAS VERY NICE CHROME AND NONE OF THE GLASS IS BROKEN
