Beautiful 1977 Buick Electra Limited Landau Coupe New Paint, Complete New Interior, Nearly $10,000 Spent On Restoration Receipts On Hand One Family Owned, Senior Ladies "BABY", Until She Was 100 Years Old Runs And Drives Fantastic, New Tires, 5 Factory Alloy Wheels I Personally Drove This Car 85 Miles From The Families Property In Las Vegas To My House I Mesquite And It Drove Beautifull Up To 80 MPH On The Freeway And Never Missed A Beat Everything Works As It Should, The Only Thing I Didn't Test Was The Cruise Control I Am Selling This Car For Family Friends, You Can Call Me At 818-425-2378 With Any Questions Let me tell you the story of "BERTIE". Her son was originaly given this car in 1977 as his compny car when he was a casino manager in Las Vegas. 3 years later he gave it to his mother BERTIE for her 70th birthday. BERTIE loved and drove this car for around 25 years until she quit driving in her mid 90's. The car was always very well cared for as BERTIE children wanted to make sure she had a safe and reliable car. She refued to trade it for a newer car because she loved this big old Buick so much. When she quit driving the car went into the family trust and was used very little for the next few years, but still very well maintained. Then in 2010 BERTIE"S children decided to restore it so BERTIE could take it for a short drive on her 100th birthday, 30 years after she was originally given the car from her son. The restoration included a complete color change as the car was originally green on green, and BERTIE had always wished it was yellow. So it got a new beige vinyl top. Then it went to the body shop for a complete color change to the beautiful yellow it is today. All chrome removed is in the trunk, nothings been thrown away.Then on to the upholstery shop. Unfortunately even tho they did great work on the big things, like the seats, carpet, headliner and dash, it became obvious that weren't experts when it came to putting everything back together. Although it looks great overall, there are minor items that still need to be finished or corrected. The center steering wheel piece never got put on. The door panels are put on incorrectly and could be better. They replaced the dash with a beige one from a Park Avenue, which is identical except that there is no place for the large clock that should be on the passenger side. When the dash was reinstalled they did not hook up the speakers for the radio or the duct work for the A/C. The A/C does work, it just doesn't come out where it should. The good news that all of the parts that were removed are in the trunk, including many extra parts that they obtained in doing the interior color change. The Story does have a happy ending, BERTIE did get it back for her 100th birthday and did take it for a short drive that thrilled her to no end. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS WELCOME. I will do all I can to assist in shipping, including holding the car for up to 30 days for any buyer. But the car still has to be paid in full within 7 days. $500 deposit due throuh Pay Pay within 48 hours. Balance due within 7 days of auction end date. NO EXCEPTIONS! I will accept Bank wire, or cash in hand upon pick up. ALL PAYMENTS MUST CLEAR MY BANK BEFORE CAR WILL BE RELEASED. IF YOU HAVE LESS THAT 10 FEEDBACK, PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR I MAY CANCEL YOUR BIDS. Check out my other items! On Oct-08-13 at 17:07:40 PDT, seller added the following information: I also have a stack of receipts for this car going back to the seventies. The original owners manual, repair manuals, and pix of it before the restoration was begun. Car was never hit and never had any rust. Originally bought right here in Vegas, was in Texas for a short time, then back here to Vegas. The seat belts were never reinstalled after the carpet was put in, but they are in the trunk. I have 2 sets of keys, I think they are original. The odometer quit on me last week when I was bringing it to my house in Mesquite from Las Vegas, but the speedo still works fine. This car would make a great low rider. |

Jay Leno recaps Pebble Beach
Wed, Sep 30 2015Each year at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance the picturesque, ocean-side setting of the golf course becomes a parking lot for a vast array of multi-million dollar vehicles. However, if you missed the posh event this year, then Jay Leno has you covered yet again. For a nearly hour-long installment of Jay Leno's Garage, the comedian has dumped his denim in favor of a suit to take viewers on an insider tour of the lavish gathering. He interviewed some of the most talented designers in the auto industry, too. Leno starts off checking out a few beautiful classics by the shore, but things really get interesting for his stroll down the Concept Car Lawn for a scoop on the vehicles of tomorrow. Ed Welburn tells Leno all about the Buick Avenir, and Shiro Nakamura offers a tour of the Infiniti Q60. Plus, there are detailed looks at the Lincoln Continental, Hyundai Vision G Coupe, and Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6.

2023 Buick Envision prices up by at least $1,900 over 2022
Sat, Sep 10 2022When Buick uploads the configurator for the 2023 Envision, shoppers will find the mid-sized crossover more expensive than the 2022 model. GM Authority got hold of next year's pricing, revealing that MSRPs will go up by $1,900 on the bottom two trims and $5,810 on the top Avenir trim. The new math, which includes the destination charge increasing $200 to $1,395, erases the discounts that arrived with 2022 Envision pricing earlier this year. Retail cost for the coming Avenir with front-wheel drive after the destination charge will be: Preferred FWD: $34,795 Essence FWD: $38,895 Avenir FWD: $47,055 Adding all-wheel drive means another $1,800 on the Essence and Avenir. Doing the same for the entry-level Preferred means pushing MSRP up by $3,650 because of the $1,850 Convenience Package is mandatory when turning the rear axle. The $1,900 upcharge for Preferred and Essence entails $1,500 for three years of OnStar and Connected Services, GM making the telematics service standard on the Cadillac, GMC, and Buick lineups as well as the Chevrolet Corvette for next year. That leaves the remaining $400 as a pure model-year price bump. The much larger rise for the Avenir is because it comes with a lot more equipment. For 2023 this trim makes the $1,965 and Technology Package II and $1,450 Panoramic Power Moonroof standard. The Technology Package adds enhanced LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, adaptive dampers, enhanced automatic emergency braking and parking assist, and a rear camera mirror with washer. Those bundles represent $3,415 of the upcharge, adding $1,500 for OnStar takes that to $4,915, leaving $895 as the model-year price bump. The rest should be carryover, save for potential changes to the exterior color menu. If there's any big news for the model next year, it would be the potential arrival of an Envision GX that would add about eight inches of overall length, with two of that between the wheels.
