For sale is my 1961 Buick Electra 4 door hardtop. This car spent all it's life in Arizona. I have done a lot to this car in the past year. Recent paint, Rebuilt brake booster, new master cylinder, new tires, new interior, new carb, overhauled engine, rebuilt torque converter, rebuilt transmission, new interior lights, hubcaps, wheels, new brakes, custom made radiator, the list goes on and on. have hundreds of pictures of the resurrection of the car and receipts. I have way more into it than the reserve price. I reserve the right to end auction early as the car is for sale locally.
The car is about 95% completed. Little odds and ends to be 100% It runs and drives great! I bought this car to be a project for my father and I. He has since become very sick and we just don't have the time to complete it and enjoy it.
The car looks great and everyone that sees it, loves it. It isn't a concourse winner but isn't a rat either. Being that the car spent all it's life in Arizona, there is zero rust. It is solid everywhere. It is a cruiser, a car you can take to the car show or weekend cruises.
The new owner will need to finish off the little things left and make it their own. All the hard expensive stuff has been done and all the ground work for completion is in place.
Known things to finish,
Gas gauge doesn't operate.
Power seat doesn't operate
Missing front kick panels, but have the steel inserts
Rear window seal
Side window seals between windows
Power steering pump needs rebuilt
Ac needs to be converted to 134A and charged
Upper courtesy side lights need lenses
Modify air cleaner to fit new edelbrock 750 carb
I believe that is all that is left to finish it off.
Rear bumper has a couple small dents
I have a lot of spare parts that will be included with the car, spare bumper, extra transmission, and a whole lot more. If it is for a buick and goes on this car and I have it, it comes with it.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Buick Riviera Concept hits the floor in Shanghai
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Here we have a concept in the true sense of the term. The Buick Riviera you see here - the name of which was last used in production back in 1999 - is said to preview Buick's future styling direction, which means we should expect to see more flowing body shapes to go along with new versions of the marque's classic waterfall grille design. Oh, and we don't believe there's a single porthole in sight.
Powered by Buick's so-called dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system (we'll stick with the W-PHEV acronym) that allows the car to be charged wirelessly just by driving atop a special charging mat on the ground, the car's powertrain is just as futuristic as its exterior shape.
Other high-tech bits include holographic projections on the windshield showing the driver what's around him, with input coming from 10 high-res cameras and 18 micro high-precision sensors. The car also sports 4G wireless connectivity so that its occupants are always connected.
Buick Regal GS and troupe of basketball dribblers make great beats
Wed, 02 Apr 2014The 166 videos posted by YouTube music video maestro Kurt Hugo Schneider have been watched almost half a billion times. When Coke wanted to do something musically inclined and a little different, it called KHS, and the result was the video Little Talks.
Buick appears to be the next blue chip in line, and KHS' melodic celebration of the 259-horsepower Regal GS is called Epic Basketball + Car Beat. In it, a red Regal sits at center court in Venice Beach, California while a cast of ridiculous dribblers make music with and around the sedan.
We'll let the music speak for itself, which it does quite well in the video below.
