For your consideration is a super rare and futuristic 1961 Buick Electra 225 Convertible with what appears to be 60k original miles. This beauty was so ahead of its time. The 1961 Buick Electra 225 Convertible was the flagship model of the Buick lineup, renowned for its luxury appointments, substantial size (the "225" referred to its length of over 225 inches), and smooth, powerful performance. It offered a sophisticated driving experience with an array of standard power features. The heart of this luxury cruiser was the robust 401-cubic-inch "Nailhead" V8 engine, which was badged as the Wildcat 445 to denote its 445 lb-ft of torque.
Horsepower: 325 hp (SAE gross).
Transmission: The engine was paired with a 2-speed "Twin-Turbine" Dynaflow automatic transmission, known for its seamless power delivery and smooth shifts.
Ride Quality: The car featured Buick's "all-coil" suspension system, which prioritized a serene and smooth ride over performance handling. Power steering and power brakes were standard, making the large car easy to manage.
Also Equipped with power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seats, power convertible top. The Honduras Maroon Paint is quite nice and shines at any angle with much gloss. I would call this a high end driver quality vehicle. Undercarriage is very clean, straight, and solid. Appears to have the factory floors in place. Not cobbled or patched up. Frame and body mounts are solid. Has a light undercoat consistent with a factory application. Very solid car. All of the chrome, stainless, emblems, bumpers, Trim, and Grill and show great.
She rides, drives, and handles exceptionally well, better than you would expect; straight down the road with no surprises. Very tight and easy to drive for any size or aged driver. I would not hesitate getting behind the wheel of this car with my family and drive it to any car show. This car is ready to drive or show! The maroon Interior shows really well. Seats are firm and in very nice shape. Headliner, carpet, and dash are in great condition.
Overall, this is a great opportunity to get behind the wheel of a rare turn key classic that can be driven and enjoyed everyday!
