VERY RARE 1965 Buick Super Wildcat Convertible For Sale~1 of 9, How Many Can Be Left?

[@g.g.6362]

Mid 60s GM cars were so classy. Perfect combination of performance and style....

[@caljn1]

The Wildcats '63-'67 are among some of the best faces of the '60s and great combos of performance, luxury and status. The '66 Chrysler 300 shamelessly took the face of the '64 Wildcat.

[@dlmullins9054]

I had just bought a new Dodge Coronet in 69, and had an opportunity to drag race one just like this one. I won but it wasn't by much at all and the guy told me nobody had ever beaten his Wildcat. I believed him! I have loved Wildcats ever since and owned a couple because of that race. I also had a 1970 GS which was fast too. I love Buicks. They really built them right back in the day.

[@brandond5209]

Such a cool car. My dad had several Riv's as I was growing up, I have always loved Buicks

[@philipancell516]

My Father had a 65 Wildcat and it was frighteningly fast. It scares me just to think how fast that one would be. That's absolutely beautiful!!!

[@WeBeAutosLtd]

Did he have a Super Wildcat with the Dual Quads?

[@philipancell516]

@@WeBeAutosLtd no but that would have been too fast lol. The 401 was fast enough to leave the rest lol.

Our Mom had a 65 Wildcat 2 door. Red exterior over white interior.

It's really odd, how only a handfull of people ordered one of these! When they say RARE, this is what they're talking about! I've been a Buick guy since day one, and I've never, ever seen one in person. Now that's RARE!

[@Leo-DaGreek]

Yes .I agree,I own a67! Riv,this is unbelievable

[@craigpennington1251]

Very nice. I'm a huge fan of the 63 Wildcat 4 speed H.T. My uncle had one and that sucker was fast. I hear a tapping noise in the engine.

[@John-sk5vm]

I had a 1965 very fast low end and high. Stomp the petal when there’s good traction it would break motor mount belts I learn how to change them fast whit a short 2x4 before I took home dads 1964 225 conv.

[@WeBeAutosLtd]

What a Cool Story!! Like a Pit Stop, LOL...

[@seangallagher455]

Why would you put that juju on him!!!!!

[@bicycle551]

I cannot believe GM engineers would build an Air Cleaner with such a stupid design. First, liklihood of dropping fastner down carb. Second, Air Cleaner element exposed to rain and etc. I don't think it is OE. After all, what is the point of the Air Cleaner housing snorkles if the element is exposed?

[@tmytco7664]

You have some rare Buick history here. I have the same 4 speed setup in my 64 skylark. Its cool to see common components including the Hurst shifter, T10, and Buick consolette. The gauges look similar to the Stewart Warner gauges in mine, but I couldn't get a good look.

[@chesterthawkins7510]

just gorgeous!!

[@chriswalker6776]

Seems like most talk about their dad loving Buick and mine was no different. His absolute favorite brand. Now I share the same love for them. That's a very rare one and original to the bones of it. Would love to own that one

[@alwaysopen7970]

When I was in my early teen, my best friend's mother had a very pedestrian 65 wildcat hardtop white on white on white. My buddy use to get the keys and pull it out sometimes, come pick me up and we would go into downtown San Antonio. It was too much car for him to drive at 13 yo but, we had fun until he got caught one night. I later had the same setup in a 71 olds Delta 88.; 455 with 4 BL and auto trans.

[@WeBeAutosLtd]

Very Cool Story!

[@richardgoose6843]

Nice car. I have one sitting in my driveway right now.😊

[@The_Original_Brad_Miller]

I've never even heard of a Super Wildcat, and I had a 1963 Wildcat convertible as a daily driver when I was 16 ;)

[@WeBeAutosLtd]

Yep, Very Rare... They came with Dual Quads

[@82maddhatter]

Love it !! Had a ‘65 and ‘68 Riv...miss them

[@dickjones6159]

There was one in Miami about 25 years ago, it was white on white. Had air, and windows, top, seats, am /fm radio, and heater delete. It had a dual quad 425 wildcat engine, it had ps, but no power brakes. It also had buckets and full console . Automatic trans

[@twoeightythreez]

Obviously not the correct air cleaner element...whats the point of the snorkels otherwise? Who else puckered up at 6:08? I thought this piece of history was about to be wrecked by a guy running a stop sign! Thanks for showing me my dream car :) Alas it will always be a dream.

[@craigjorgensen4637]

twoeightythreez Yes that is the correct air cleaner!

[@samuelsetser757]

This car may not be as rare as one would think. I have two of them with the 425 cube and dual quads. All matching numbers. One of them was recently rear ended and I will soon be selling parts from it on ebay The air cleaner is already sold.

[@samuelsetser757]

The one part that confuses me is that the one I inherited has factory air.

[@mrdiplomat9018]

Craig Jorgensen - correct air cleaner housing, but the paper element can’t be the correct one, because the other poster is right- what’s the point of the dual snorkels? The chrome lid should obviously be flush with the housing for a proper seal. ✌🏻🇺🇸

[@MarioSanchez-yd9wy]

@doubleheadergr you know it's a myth about older cars being heavier maybe thicker steel not heavier

[@craigjorgensen4637]

You’ve got the wrong air filter element…or something? The air filter isn’t supposed to be exposed! Rare, especially with the four speed but it’s not a Gran Sport? Lots of options but no Air Conditioning?? Nice car!

[@TomRuggles-h3w]

Very perty car. Grate work.

[@clevlandblock]

I buried the speedo (120 mph plus) on my dad's 65 Electra back in 1968. And that was only a single exhaust 401. I wonder what this Wildcat would do.

[@WeBeAutosLtd]

Wow, Thats Fast in an Electra; Can't Imagine with this Bad Boy and the Dual Quads 😃

Bury the speedo. shows 125 more pedal to go. I know.

i Believe its a 425 engine He didn't say, it also Could be a 455 ci, that's what my 65' had, or a 401, ci i was Just wanting to know, Love those old Buick's they Run like a Raped ape, i had a 66' Old's Delta with a 425 ci it was a Freak Very Powerful..... Beautiful Car, Car's were Really Built in the day, Now they are Mostly Plastic... Only if i Knew then what i know Now, i would have saved them. LOL Back in the early 70s when Car's had close to 80,000 Miles on it , it was Considered Higher Mileage, There was a Car Lot in Detroit Michigan Called Speedway auto Sale's he Kept the Cars with 70,000 Plus in the Back of the Lot you could Just Open the door on any of the Car and Start it up to Check them out, for $400.00 to $700,00 you could buy a AWESOME Car, every morning he would put the Keys in each Car, for Customer's to look at, i tell these young kids like my grand kids and they Don't believe me .,.. Today if you did that all your cars would be gone by 9:00 am. Just to give people an idea of How much Car's were, in 1973 my dad Bought a Brand New Old's Cutlass Supreme blue with a 350,ci AM- FM Radio, Power steering & Power Brakes, with Roll up window's and air for $3,300 out the door, Those were the Day's...

[@bertgrau3934]

That was a 65 so it would have the nail head engine, with 2- 4 bbl carbs it would have been the 425, if it was original. The 2X4 intake could bolt onto the 401. The 455 didn't come out until 1970.

[@DJ-365]

@@bertgrau3934 The 455 engine was out before 1970 Check it out.

[@DJ-365]

@@bertgrau3934 That 65 looks like a nail head because of the way the Heads looks from the pic,

[@bertgrau3934]

@@DJ-365 There's other ways, look at the intake at the front of the engine, the distributor is at the rear, the newer style engine (1967) has the distributor at the front. However I have seen a nail head with the distributor in the front. At the front of the engine There's a valley pan cover for the lifters, the new engdidnt have that, the intake covers the lifter area. One good thing about the 65, all GM divisions started using the 3 speed automatic. A big improvement over the dynoflow (2) speed. I have owned several Buicks a 56, 61, two 66, a special, with the V6 it did have a 2 speed transmission and a Electra 225. It had the 401, and 3 speed. I like Buicks, today However they seem to be chevys with Buick name tags. Sir I'm not trying to argue with you, just pointing out a few facts. I have motor repair manuals for cars from 1940,through 1980. Having owned some older vehicles, they came in very helpful. A 1950 Ford F2 pickup 239 cubic V8 Flathead. Took the engine to a machine shop and my manual it was a big help for the machine shop to machine the block, and valve work. The F2 was a 3/4 ton truck 4 speed transmission (crash box, no synchronizer) good truck, could haul a lot of weight. I put a load of rock on it and I had 1 and a half tons of rock. That thing pulled it with no problems. Sorry this is so long I got carried away. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving sir

[@DJ-365]

I replyed about what you said, you said that the 455 ci came out in 1970, i believe that is what you said but that is not true the 455 came out before 1970, i also had a 1966 Old's Toronado with a 455 ci, i said that the 65' ;Buick had a 401 nail head it looks like because of the way the heads look by looking at the picture
