 1975 Buick LeSabre

This car is a in great condition. starts right up, drives strong, fast, and powerful! Superb handling, driving this car on the road feels like your in the water! This beast takes average road bumps like you just hit a cotton ball! The perfect summer car! Drop the top and hit the road!

The car is a head turner! You will not see or find many cars of this age in this great condition. Sky blue with a white top. All the features work like they are supposed to. The car was and still is being garage kept. Only 56000 miles on it (the actual mileage at time of this listing is 55537)! There are three flaws that should be mentioned. The drivers seat has a little tear on the left side back, looks like the leather cracked due to age. The passenger side fender has a little scratch just above the wheel well due putting it in the garage and it scraped against the garage door frame. And the driver side front fender, right behind the bumper is a little dented, again, this happened by trying to get it in the garage, and it hit the garage door frame (did more damage to the garage then it did the car). I have pictures of all of these if you are interested.

I have dozens more pictures of this car, if you would like to see more pics just let me know and I will e-mail you more pics. If you have any questions or want to come and see the car for yourself, please call me, Rich, at 732-448-1112.

Junkyard Gem: 1962 Buick LeSabre 2-Door Sport Coupe

Sat, Jan 29 2022

American car shoppers looking for a full-sized hardtop coupe in 1962 couldn't go wrong with the offerings from The General. Chevrolet would sell you a snazzy new Bel Air sport coupe for just $2,561 (about $23,800 today), but those Joneses next door wouldn't have felt properly shamed if you put a new proletariat-grade Chevy in your driveway. No, to really stand tall during the era of Alfred Sloan's Ladder of Success, you had to go higher up on the GM food chain. For the B-platform full-sized cars of 1962, that meant the Pontiac Catalina/Bonneville beat the Chevy, the Oldsmobile 88 was the next step up the ladder, and at the very top was the Buick: the hot-rod Invicta and its swanky LeSabre sibling. To go beyond that, you had to move up to a C-platform Buick Electra or Cadillac. Today's Junkyard Gem is a once-luxurious '62 LeSabre, now much-faded in a northeastern Colorado boneyard. The reason GM shoppers got so bent out of shape about the "Chevymobile" episodes of the late 1970s, in which some GM cars received engines made by "lesser" GM divisions, was that each division had its own family of V8 engines during the 1950s and 1960s and they weren't supposed to be mingled. The '62 LeSabre got a 401-cubic-inch (6.5-liter) Nailhead engine (so called because the valves were unusually small), rated at 265, 280, or 325 (depending on what kind of compression ratio and carburetion you wanted). That's not crazy horses for a big-displacement, two-ton luxury coupe of its era, but the small valves allowed for combustion chambers optimized for one thing: low-rpm torque. This 401 has the two-barrel carburetor, so it made either 412 or 425 pound-feet of torque. That's just a bit less than the mighty Cadillac's engine that year, and definitely sufficient to get this car moving very quickly. You had to pay a fat premium on the Chevrolet, Pontiac, and Oldsmobile B-bodies to get an automatic transmission (a three-speed column-shift manual was base equipment in those cars), but a Turbine-Drive (formerly known as the Dyna-Flow) automatic was standard issue on the 1962 LeSabre. This was an interesting transmission design that traced its origins back to the 1942 M18 Hellcat Tank Destroyer and used torque-converter multiplication to provide a CVT-like experience with no perceptible shifts (the driver could select a separate low gearset manually, so the shifter looks just like the one on the true two-speed Powerglide transmission).
