Up for sale is my 1968 Buick 225 Electra convertible.

I had no intention on ever selling this car, but difficult financial
circumstances have caused me no choice, but to list my baby. I have
endless hours of labor within all hours of the day and night and tons of money in the car.

This California car is solid no rust!! with absolutely no creaks, squeaks or rattles.
The trunk still has the original paint in it.
The doors have no
play in the hinges and shut solid like the day the car was made. The hood hinges are sturdy with no play and the hood springs still have all the tension to hold the hood open in any position desired. The engine is fully rebuilt and balanced it runs super smooth and with an immense amount of power. The Buick drives straight and the power steering assist works like a dream you can steer this car with the ease of one finger and as for stopping it stops on the dime. This by no means is a trailer queen that was not ever my intention. All I wanted was a beautiful car I can take the wife and kids in on the weekend to lunch or a local car show. The heater works perfectly and blows hot and strong. The AC blows cool but could use a charge. There are still some things that need attention for instance the original radio powers on but there is no sound, all the power windows work except the rear drivers side window at times it will work and most of the time it wont go down. I never checked in to it, but it could just be needing grease not sure, also the speedometer stopped working after the rebuild. I wanted the front bumper painted, but not the back. I wanted to re-chrome the back bumper but the body shop went and painted it and I lived with it, but the back bumper has imperfections as it was not ready to paint.
Engine has fully been rebuilt with less than 1000, miles on the rebuild. The engine
idles as smooth as a top and with roar of a lion.
Transmission was also fully rebuilt with less then 1000, miles on it.
Transmission shifts nice and smooth.

The car has true dual exhaust all the way down to the satin black tips with large glass packs that sound like an awesome old-school monstrosity!! (Deep
and throaty)
