What a beautiful Buick and the owner is definitely very appreciative of this great classic. When he opened that hood and lit that 430 motor I had a big smile, what a great powerful sound coming from those duels. Thanks so much for doing a video on this gentleman’s Beautiful classic Buick.

Great timing ! My buddy had one in 73, I was thinking about it the other day... I can still feel how it rode, drove and sounded. SPECTACULAR LUX CAR !

[@jimmiller7386]

A friend of mine bought this car (4 door) in high school (2002) for $75. Interior was mint, and the only exterior issue was the skirts weren't put back on after a tire change. All original! The water pump was shot and grinding. I told him to buy one, and I'd help him install it. Before he could, his dad started the engine and floored it in park blowing the water pump apart, and damaging the radiator. He never bought the parts, and they moved a couple years later., leaving the car when they left. Refused to sell me the car because "he was going to get it". The new home owner left it for nearly 2 years before they sold it for scrap. I loved that car.

Bert, you have a wonderful example of Buick history, thanks so much for showing it to us. I've owned a 1969 Buick Skylark Custom convertible since 1978, so I've acquired some knowledge of '69 Buicks over the years. I enjoyed checking out the 4 Guide T-3 headlights on your car, and I'm impressed by the fact that your trunk light and all the interior courtesy lights are working.This is a nice sign of attention to detail. Also, you have the steel squeeze clamp that holds the air cleaner to the heat riser pipe that comes from the exhaust manifold. And lastly, your clock is working! Congratulations on owning such a beautiful Buick. Lou, thanks again for yet another great presentation.

That is a nice car, acres and acres of Buick! My Granddaddy was a Buick fan. I worked on a 1967 Buick Electra 225 (it was a two-door with the fast-back roof design) a few months ago, same color as the 1969 in the film. The owner of that Buick had someone replace the brake master cylinder and brake booster, but couldn't start the car after the job was finished. Fortunately I traced the problem to the neutral safety switch not being plugged in. I wish all my car repair work was that easy.

Nice car!!! Amazing engine. I did notice the lack of air conditioning which is surprising in a car of its price range even for the time (1969 model year). Could have originally been sold to someone in the Pacific Northwest or the San Francisco area where there is little hot weather during the summer months. That would not have gone over in my area (New York) where we get hot, humid weather every summer. However the car is nicely preserved. Love the sound of the big 430 cu. in. V-8 engine.

@@loucostabile I like these old cars when GM was in their glory days. They probably built some of the best cars in the United States at the time. When I was a child, I saw plenty of Buicks and all of the other GM of the time. There were lots of Chevrolets and plenty of Pontiacs. I remember the Oldsmobiles and the Cadillacs of the period. Then of course there was Ford with the Fords, Mercurys and Lincolns. Don't forget Chrysler with the Plymouths, Dodges and Chryslers. Of course there was the Imperial. Lastly there was AMC. There are those who remember the Rambler, the Rebel and the Ambassador.

Hi Lou, Love these full size semi muscle cars, someone should publish a book on just full size muscle. Yeah they were a second slower down the quarter mile but who cares when you have 2 tons of muscle under your control. Fantastic curves & corners just gorgeous yet sinister & muscular. As most muscle cars are too expensive now these full size are a better alternative with better value for money in lots of cases. Just been under the weather lately, don't worry no virus. Your number 1 Fan in Australia Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia 😀👍

That particular green is very nice. It looks like it has disc brakes!

This big, bold, bouyant Buick would fit my 6'7" like a glove! Wonderful car...right in my Mere Mortal range! Oh yeah!

Very unique! I've never seen one in that color with the Buckskin interior, much less a Coupe.
