The 1973 Electra began the transformation to the 74-76 editions of the car. In those days if big was good, then bigger was better...until you had to fill the tank that is. Good selection of tunes! Are you going to restore it?
About 75% of the car is original.... but the parts that are original arent the ones that matter towards being able to drive it! I have it in running condition right now, and i will get a video up soon when the weather is nicer. Also i am the 5th owner of this car and have no idea what is to come! but, i do hope i can restore it to its true condition and beauty! Also if your wonder thats not the original paint job, transmission, tires, belts, radiator, and pumps, because i replaced those.
Another problem is the rules that apply to me, to be able to drive it! If i consider my car as a true antique in the state, my car can only be drivin to shows, and for a certain amount of miles, but, in the law if its older that 73 the county doesnt care, so I got screwed so I have to follow all the safety inspection rules, but no emissions! If you want more answers feel free to comment so more or send a message!
@73BuickElectra225 Love your car. All four springs, but especially the rears need to be replaced. Typical GM full size cars of that era, sagging springs. I bought and drove enough of them. Good luck.
@roscoe68100 Thanks! Buicks are awesome!
