1973 Electra from California

Hi folks, my name is Johannes and I currently live in Monterey, California – but will go back to Germany in September.

After looking for a nice vintage family friendly car in which I could do some cruising with my family on the weekends, I found this nice 73 Electra Limited in the Silicon Valley. It only had one pre owner and was parked in the garage for nearly 30 years.
Before the family sold it to me, it got a big maintenance from the Buick Dealer who sold it new. From the original selling contract on I got a folder of paperwork with the car. In total it has done only 16000 Miles.
The Buick runs great, the 455 is strong.
After the AC just got a new compressor and updated to R134, the only thing I have to do is to repair the Borg clock.

Sorry, after 47 years the car left Califonia.
The Electra (and I) have moved to Germany last year and passed the German Historic-Registration without any issues.

Just the European streets are a little bit tiny for those bis Dionsaurs.

Hey no worries I get it! Mine is about to be in Ohio where there is less traffic and more open roads. I can’t wait! I bet in Germany you turn sooooo many heads!
