Price My Classic

Buick's full-sized Electra 225 benefitted from a total redesign in 1971, with fashionable 'fuselage' styling. The car utilized Buick's 455-cid, 315-hp V-8, and rode on a massive 127-inch wheelbase. The car's length grew by more than two inches from the previous year to 227. 9, and weight was correspondingly heavier by 340 pounds. Prices started at $5,454 for the two-door hardtop and $5,567 for the four-door hardtop, which placed the Buick closer to Cadillac territory than ever before. A Custom trim was available on the Electra, and it added wood grain trim and upgraded upholstery. Plush Limited interiors were also available, with bench front seats. The 1972 Electra 225 outsold the 1971 model year by more than a third, to the tune of 172,000 units. The engine that year remained the same, though power ratings were now reported in net rather than gross. The result was a 225-hp V-8, with an optional 250-hp variant available. For 1973, the cars obtained 5-mph...

Buick's full size luxury started its life in 1959 and ran through 1990. This is a wonderfully clean example of the early 1970's Land Yacht. We rarely find them nicer than this. And this one has spent its entire life in one family and it really shows.

This exterior is rich dark green, the interior is the same and it shows almost no wear, its richly appointed with air conditioning , cruise control, power seats, power windows, tilt wheel, and power locks.

The 455 cu in has plenty power to keep this yacht...
