Offered here is a 100% original, 2-owner, extremely low-mileage 1973 Buick Century Regal 2-Door Hardtop Coupe. The car was purchased new in Grand Haven, Michigan and remained in one man’s care for the past 40 plus years. It has just over 30,000 original miles. Other than new tires, new belts, new spark plugs, new heater core, new battery, and an engine tune-up, the car remains 100% original and unmolested. It fires on command and offers a smooth, nostalgic driving experience.
The original paint (code 81) was called Bamboo Cream and it remains untouched since the day it rolled off the showroom floor. The vinyl top and interior also remain original. The car is powered by the numbers matching 350ci/150hp 2bbl V8 mated to an automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. The Century name always signified class and sophistication from Buick. It was badged on what was though to be its final model in 1958 until resurging again in 1973. 1973 also marked the first year up the upscale Regal trim, which has been carried on to today in Buick’s latest and greatest releases.
This is nothing short of a timepiece. It is very rare to find a car for the 1970’s that has not been messed with in any way, especially a two-owner with 30k original miles. The car also comes with the original owner’s manual and original 1973 Michigan license plates. Call or e-mail if interested. Thank you for looking.
