1972 Buick Electra 225 Custom Hardtop 2-door 7.5l on 2040-cars
Boxford, Massachusetts, United States
|
This is a beautiful 1972 Buick Electra Limited 225. I am only the second owner. The original owner was a auto engineer for GM in Detroit. I bought if from his daughters when he passed away. He used this car to go on vacation every year to Arizona. I believe it to be all original with only 46000 miles. I have only owned it since 2006 and it has been garaged the whole time. The paint is smooth and shiny and in excellent condition. The interior is near perfect. There is a small split in the vinyl on the drivers door. No ripped seats. Carpets are perfect. It has original floor mats. I installed a CD stereo with I-Pod connection where the Ash tray was. It could be removed and the ash tray put back (I kept the ashtray). It has a CB Radio that was installed in 1976 and I have the receipt and warrenty from the CB. I have the original paper work and manual for the vehicle as well as the original Warrenty. I have many of the old repair tickets from the car. I just got a valve job and new battery. Just got new points, carb rebuild, Lube, oil and filter and a coolant flush. All the power accessories work (power windows, Lock, Seats, trunck pop, speed control, power steering, cruise control) except the air conditioning is not cold. This car would be a great daily driver or not much to do to put it in show condition. Feel free to call or e-mail me with questions 617-974-4297 I love to talk about it. This is the same car I had when I first got my license years ago. |

GM expands headlight recall to 180k Buicks and Pontiacs
Thu, Aug 20 2015General Motors is issuing an expanded headlight module recall to include 180,504 examples in North America of the 2005 Buick LaCrosse (2008 model year pictured above) and 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix. Specifically, the campaign affects 159,584 of them in the US and 20,920 in Canada. When the part fails, the vehicles' low beams can stop working either intermittently or permanently. "GM is unable to confirm any crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition," the company said in a statement, and there's currently no permanent repair for the problem. For now, dealers will replace the headlamp module with a new example of the same part. The automaker first announced this campaign in November 2014 when it affected 316,357 examples globally of the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse; 2006-2007 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT; 2006-2007 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL; 2006-2007 Buick Rainier; 2006-2008 Saab 9-7X; and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?

GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production
Sat, Oct 24 2015Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.
