NEW PROJECT! 1960 Buick Electra 225 Riviera Sedan 

1960 electra is heaven on earth

Glad you got one for you! Great looking car, and you’re right about wheels and tires. Can’t wait to see what’s next!!

The 59 and 60 Buick were never my favorite body design. But that is a clean one.

When I was 21 in 1967 I had a 1960 LA Sabra four door flat roof my car I wish I still had thanks for sharing

That's a really special car! Love the color combo of blue inside and gold on the outside. You know nobody else has one like that! The previous owner really set you up for this car and beyond here. Fwiw, it really doesn't need much at all to be the best cruiser pretty quick!

Hi Adam, my name is Gilbert. I have the same 60 Buick Electra, except mine is the base model. I've had it for 40 years now. Good luck with your 60 Buick, nice to see you have the same car as me, 60 was the first year of the tri shield emblem in front, mine is sable black original gloss black lacquer paint. I rebuilt the engine when I was 17 years old and still runs like a champ, I got the interior done, headliner, seats, dash, rug, it's a very nice daily driver. This one is my baby of my classic car collection. I also have a 65 Buick Riviera, Sea Foam green. Love your videos on repairing classics, thank you.

Use SOS or Brillo pad to clean blue from white walls or clean dirty ones

Much respect for you, and what you do. I grew up working in my father's body shop from the time I was old enough to push a broom. God bless you for the smile you still have on your face!

You're a good man, Adam

Can’t wait to see the next episode with your sweet 60 Electra 225 My fave Electra 225 is 1964 Can’t wait to see more!

Nice 60 buick i have a 60 lesabre 2 door ht maroon and white its on you tube as 60 buick start up im so glad to see sombody put normal ww tires on instead of rubber band tires and big hoops

I’ve had a few GMs that had duct tape “bodywork” too 😂

VERY NICE !

It's a GM, so it will need some work on rusty spots but it's so sweet...

wish I still had some of my fathers' old Buicks. '58 Buick Roadmaster, '63 Wildcat convertible, '69 Rivera, & '77 Limited Electra,, After that things started running south. Thank you for what you do preserve a piece of history.

Very nice electra . I have a 67 electra and riviera I love buicks I also have a 65 Riv

I had one. You will never sell this car. An awesome experience.

I attempted to support you with merchandise.

New subscriber. Love Buicks!

Buick Bob Good information on the wheel bolts. I’ll have to check to see if my 61 has the same configuration.

I just bought the same exact car and waiting for delivery to start tinkering

I want that green Roadmaster in the background

Cool car!

Hi Adam Wayne from Victoria Australia just watched your new video on the 60 225 six window I have a 63 225 six window that was sold new with right hand drive conversion by gmh . I always look forward to your next instalment as you are very informative and a natural presenter also covering a lot of buicks doesn't hurt again thank you for the content regards wayne

I own one of these '6 window sedans'...mine is midnight blue and has air conditioning.."Betsy" has 59 thousand miles on her and I have had her for 22 years...they only made 8,029 of these! Lovely car!They drive wonderfully and are a pleasure..

It needs a frame off restoration. I had a 60 Le Sabre 2 door bubble top. If this was a 2 door hardtop. I would not mind taking on this project. But being 4door Electra, I would pass on this one.

In my youth I had a pristine black Buick1960 Electra 225 jewel. Except mine was the 4-window version (the "space car look") rather than the more conventional 6-window version seen in this video. And mine had factory air, to top it off. Sadly, the engine eventually needed a valve job and in those days, restoration was not commony done on older Amercian cars. My next car (in the fuel conscious 1970s) was a Volvo. Shame on me!

Fabulous possibilities with this one. Love the fact that the 6 window roof is shared with Cadillac. Oldsmobile had to wait until 1961 to get their turn which was a major upgrade in my opinion.

I could probably find you some more old, worn out Buicks to work on....

Adam: the brown seats are toast. almost impossible to replace just components on something so old. The blue on the whitewalls? Pumice stone. You DA man!!!!

enough said.

It will take a day to sort through everything . It would be nice to put it back to original . To bad it wasn't a flat top !

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

In my opinion one should go with NOS materials for the interior. More than anything, the interior gives a car its vintage vibe. Seeing modern materials in the interior greatly detracts from a car.

"an old car full of parts". What keeps you motivated and going, my friend?

Nice project, what can you expect to pay for one in today's market? In like condition .. I like your content thanks.

Most of the tire shops are won;t mount tires unless you buy through them.

"wouldn't you really rather have a Buick"

Hi ! What was the tire and tire size used please??

Any chance you could recommend the oils to use like tranny, engine etc ? I’m not sure what current liquids to use please!

any chance of getting more hoodies in stock?

So...was the duct tape maybe used to hold a tarp on?

this had to be above the four door sedan and the flat top. I look forward to your progress
