The Electra was Buick’s nameplate from 1959 to 1990 for its flagship, full-size luxury car offering. Taking over from the Roadmaster, six generations of Electra would see the light of day. The name Electra was based on a person, Texan sculptor and socialite Electra Waggoner Biggs. No doubt it was also helped by the fact that Electra was the sister-in-law of then-GM President Harlow H. Curtice. This 1974 Buick Electra 225 Limited that we've got for sale is a fourth-generation example with 100,497 miles on the odometer and a slice of what Seventies luxury motoring was like.

What we have in store for you is a highly desirable third-generation 1966 Buick Electra 225 with just 82,500 miles on the clock after 55 years on the road, it is also available to be seen in the Peach State, Georgia.
Originally a trim designation, the Buick Skylark became a standalone option with the 1964 model year. The second generation Skylark followed in 1968 with a new design. It also featured additional safety features, such as parking lights that illuminated with the car’s headlights, shoulder belts, and side markers. The design was sleek, with the two-door coupes receiving fastback-like styling, a long hood with quad lights, and a simple yet elegant grille up front. While a range of engines were available, our featured 1971 Buick Skylark is powered by the 350-4 This 1971 Skylark could serve as either a great starter classic or a valuable addition to a collection.
If the '60s was known for its golden era of muscle cars, then the '80s must be known for its excess. The 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo is the perfect example, with this luxury coupe grabbing the big power figures and offering performance that characterized Buick’s entry into the performance car market. While the Grand National and GNX remain desirable Buick Regal models, their rarity and soaring prices make the T-Type an attractive option. Just like its siblings, the T-Type boasts similar performance figures and improved mechanicals over the standard car. Our featured car presents a rare opportunity to snag a low-mileage, one-owner example of a 1987 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo. The current owner reports that they bought the car new in 1986. Since then, the owner reports the car has covered an original mileage of just 23,000 miles. In addition to having a numbers-matching engine and transmission, this Buick Regal features all original books and manuals, which will be included in the sale.
The Buick LeSabre comes from an era where it wasn’t uncommon for sedans to have their stylish convertible offshoots. Our 1970 Buick LeSabre Convertible is exactly that, featuring the same iconic design elements that made this full-sized GM creation a household name, with the bonus of a convertible top to make this a truly special creation. By 1970, the Buick LeSabre was in its third generation and featured a 60s-inspired “Coke-Bottle” silhouette with a long hood and a flowing midsection. Out front, the car features quad headlamps and the traditional pointed grille design. Our featured car captures just about everything that makes this generation of automobiles great. And what's more, it’s been subjected to a full restoration featuring a laundry list of new parts.
While there have been multiple generations of the Chevrolet Camaro, the 1969 model year is one of the most loved by many. The design is timeless and inspired the 2010 revival of the model with the fifth generation. The Camaro was made in response to the success of Ford’s hit, the Mustang. Although the Blue Oval had a headstart, the first-generation Camaro was able to fine-tune the formula, using a brand new F-Body platform and a range of straight-six and V8 engines. For the 1969 model year, the Camaro featured an all-new design, with an aggressive and angular front end, wider “coke-bottle” hips, and new doors. Our featured 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is a restomod with a new supercharged 376ci LSX V8 engine under the hood, as well as several upgrades. The owner reports that this Camaro has only 5,828 miles on it since the build was completed.
The '70s saw big changes for the American automotive industry; the oil crisis meant large gas guzzlers were out the door, and the American car buyer had to embrace the fuel-sipping performance showcased by imports. Prior to 1973, however, the world was filled with performance and sharp looks; today, it is an example of intense performance and good looks that stems from the golden era of muscle cars. Are you looking to get your hands on your very own example of unfiltered muscle? This 1970 Plymouth Road Runner could be the answer.
It’s not often that concept cars translate well into production. Concepts usually don’t have to bend to legislation or practicality and are therefore often left as flights of fancy, perhaps spurring a watered-down production car bearing a few minor elements. But for the Chevrolet Corvette C3, the links between it and the Mako Shark II concept car are a dead giveaway. The C3 was a departure for the Corvette line, and included a long hood, concealed headlights, and a short deck. The same silhouette set the tone for virtually every generation of ’Vette that followed. Our featured car is a 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with an exceptionally low mileage of just 25,591. The current owner even reports having documentation on hand to authenticate the car’s mileage.
