It is a bold seller that describes their classic as “truly mint,” but that is the approach taken with this 1984 Buick Electra Park Avenue. It has a genuine 64,000 miles on the clock, and the listing images seem to support the seller’s claim. I must say a big thank you to Barn Finder T.J. for spotting the Buick listed here on eBay in Lakeland, Florida. Bidding sits below the reserve at $10,700 as the auction heads into its final days.

The 1984 model year marked the last for production of Buick’s Fifth Generation Electra range. The badge continued to sell well, though its replacement demonstrated a second wind, pushing volumes to impressive levels. The first owner ordered this Electra in Light Royal Blue with a contrasting White vinyl top. The seller supplies an outstanding range of high-definition images, and finding flaws seems impossible. The paint is consistent across the exterior, shining beautifully, and demonstrating no evidence of patchiness or other problems. The panels are as straight as an arrow, and there is no rust to spoil the winning bidder’s ownership experience. The trim and glass are equally impressive, and wrapping the factory alloy wheels in whitewalls was a masterstroke to emphasize this car’s luxury leanings.

As the range-topping model in the Electra range, this Park Avenue is loaded with creature comforts. These include air conditioning, power windows, power locks, cruise control, a tilt wheel, a remote driver’s mirror, lashings of faux woodgrain, and an AM/FM radio and cassette player. As with the exterior, faulting the interior appearance is challenging. Cloth trim from this era is prone to issues, but the Blue cloth inside this Buick shows no wear or other problems. The carpet is spotless, and the dash and pad haven’t aged or been affected by UV exposure. Overall, the new owner could slip behind the wheel of this Buick with their head held high, knowing that the only comments they’ll receive will be positive.

Detroit was still struggling with emission regulations in 1984, although there was light at the end of the tunnel. This car’s 307ci V8 should produce 140hp and 240 ft/lbs of torque, with the power reaching the road via a four-speed automatic transmission. The 1984 model year was significant for the Electra because it marked the end of the rear-wheel-drive platform and the V8 engine. The following generation would be V6-only territory, with power sent to the road via the front wheels. The seller doesn’t mention verifying the evidence for their mileage claim, nor do they provide information about the car’s mechanical condition. However, the photos suggest this Buick is a turnkey classic.

This 1984 Buick Electra Park Avenue presents superbly and needs nothing but a new home. Its spotless originality and low odometer reading should see the bidding hit the upper end of the current market. That means that a figure above $14,000 is possible, and the listing statistics seem to support that. Would you pay that much for a forty-one-year-old Buick, or is that too rich for your blood?
