For Sale: 1974 Buick Electra in Collierville, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

New family cars just aren't the same any more. Big 6-passenger sedans of the past have been replaced by tight fitting, economical, airbag-infested all-terrain toys. Actually, it's quite a good thing that they're not the same anymore! But this bad boy is everything you remember from the glory days. Big block 455ci engine, room for six to fit comfortably on large front and rear sofas, and a ride that floats over all the potholes. As they used to say, "Nothing rides like a Buick". And this Buick is as original as it gets. You can still play Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison on the 8-Track.

This car runs, drives, and looks beautiful in every way. With only two previous owners, it has been garaged and cared for, still believed to be wearing its original paint (except a couple of touchups), as well as its original interior. And what a beautiful interior! The pleated crushed velour seats invite you to sit back and relax. The doors are in like-new condition, protected from the sun's fade. And showing less than 48k miles, there is hardly any wear.

We have put it out on the road and it makes good power and handles like it should. All the lights are working as they should. The doors and truck open and close with a solid feel. The doors close with ease and the body is solid showing no signs of rust.
This Electra 225 Limited shows a small amount of patina for its age, but is otherwise a remarkable unrestored time capsule. Contact Art & Speed at 901-850-0507 to remember your glory days!
