This beautiful 1963 Buick Electra 225 convertible was my fathers and has passed to me per his estate. I believe it was a one owner prior to my father. He purchased it in 1980 when it was 17 years old with low miles. The car was titled to me in June 2006 when my father was getting up in age. Since then recent upgrades by me was new tires , rebuilt brake booster, new seals in the transmission,all performed in this last year. After this work I took the car on a 486 mile road trip with no problems. Issues that are still apparent include the brakes have full pedal but I beleive the drums need turned,the paint is fair but has places that are surface flaking,the convertible top does not lower except by hand.I think this is likely a bad switch or motor. The car was appraised in September 2010. The appraisal states it is in #3 condition and if kept at this condition should appreciate 2 to 3 % per year. This Buick handles and rides really nice for being a fifty year old car. The interior is decent and has factory am working radio. All the glass is clear without fog. The floorboards and frame appear to be solid. The purchaser can receive receipts from the work performed along with the written appraisal. The car is presented as is and it will be the buyers responsibility for shipping.

2013 Buick Verano Turbo vs. 2013 Acura ILX 2.4
Tue, 12 Mar 2013Answering The $30,000 Entry-Level Luxury Question
Twenty years ago, a comparison between an entry-level Buick and Acura would have matched a Skylark against an Integra.
Twenty years ago, a comparison between an entry-level Buick and its Acura equivalent would have matched a Skylark against an Integra. The unfair battle would have resulted in the compact American's defeat in nearly every measurable category, as the Japanese competitor was arguably at the height of its powers.
Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
GM expanding Lansing Lambda CUV plant
Thu, 30 Oct 2014Considering that crossovers are a rapidly growing portion of the US auto market, it's not surprising to hear that General Motors is preparing to build even more of them. The company is investing $63 million to expand its Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant that builds Lambda platform CUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.
According to GM, the expansion will add roughly 263,000 extra square feet of space to the plant. Of that, 181,000 square feet will be for an updated body shop with cutting-edge robots. There will also be 54,000 square feet of additional room in the paint shop and 28,000 square feet of more area for general assembly.
GM isn't saying as much, but there is the possibility that this extra space could allow for additional models produced at the factory. Cadillac reportedly dropped plans to build a three-row SUV on the Lambda platform earlier this year, however, dealers for the luxury brand were recently pitched the possibility of adding large and small CUVs, an ATS convertible or a sedan below the ATS.
