1964 Buick LeSabre/Wildcats. Stand Up and Be Counted!!

My ragtop, 28,000 miles and its a 4 speed. This is the lowest milage most original 4 speed cat known

 

The one thing I like about 63-64 Cats, Lesbres and Electras :bglasses: not to leave anyone out. Is the unique body syles. You dont see one at every show or driving down the road like Impalas etc.
And I have met alot of Great Guys that share my interest.

WOT forever

OK 3333: I remember Beifus Buick very well. They were an Old School Buick dealer in Irvington. Although our family did business with Maple Buick in South Orange I remember going into Beifus for repairs on my 66 Lesabre in about 1970.

My home boy had a 64 Lesabre 4 dr. ht. purchased new from Brick Church Buick and my other home boy had the same car. One was medium blue, the other burgundy.

I really enjoyed those cars. Mitch

 

Beautiful car. I love the 4spd fullsize cars.

 

I have a '64 Electra if that counts for anything! haha

 

YA, we will let ya in the club.
Since it shares the entire front end!

 

We may share the front, but I got the better lookin tail! :grin: :bglasses:\
The grille, on the other hand, is a matter of opinion, I like both...

 

I'm new here. I recently acquired a 63 LeSabre, 2 door Hardtop.
It's going to be a fun car.

 

Yep... not only is it going to be fun, but it's also going to become an addiction. ENJOY... Welcome to the board.

 

:kodak:

 

I have a friend in covington that owns a '64 LeSabre Sedan. His mother learned to drive on it when she was 60 years old. He and I are planning to get it out this spring and put in some new soft plugs and fire it off. Nice original car. White, grey interior.

I keep bugging him about getting it out...I like it!

 

Alex, I can't wait to see that '64 LeSabre!

 

You may have seen it in his barn at the last picnic you attended.

 

Very nice cars you guys have! I just wanted to say hey. Sunday im picking up a 1964 buick lesabre 4 door hardtop that i found last fall. Managed to trade a 88 crx i had for it. Im hopeing to do a full restoration on it, keep it stock, and get collecter plates. If anyone has any advice, ideas, info on the car, ect im all ears:grin:

The car from what i understand has been sitting there since probebly about 1970 so i am verry worried about how it is gonna look underneath. What sold me on it though was every piece is there and intack, glass, trim, interior isnt rotton at all so im hopeing it can be saved.

 

When you pull it out, you need to post up some photos!

 

Oh i will im just giddy)

 

Got the Buick home today..... good news, i think its salvageable, way better condition than i expected. Sorry didnt get any pics, it was dark when i got home. I have some questions though and im not too sure where to post them? First my car has marker lights on the side above the bumper corners? I noticed some dont, is this comooon , or special option package? Also, When i first looked at the car it had 6500 miles on the odometer, I was convinced it rolled over a few times or whatever. Now that ive seen it closer im convinced it has 6500 miles on it and thats all. There is no wear on the seat, pedals, steering wheel, no wear on what looks like the original key, looks like original tune up parts and so on. I checked the tranny fluid, looks bran new. Then i took the breather out of the rocker cover and there is no rust, no slude no gook, anything!! Is there anyway to tell if that is original milage? My buddies granparents said the cars been sitting there for probably 30 years.

 

Nice car i love them. Ive had mine since 1995 its a 64 lesabre coupe since replace the 300 for a 401 nailhead. It need alot of little work on the body but not that bad I think i can handle it but the time, money and weather play a big part for me ill post some before and now pics soon.

 

Here are some now pics. Remember it has been sitting outside for 7 years exposed to the elements im just getting into it.

 

Yup that is a 401 Nailhead in a Lesabre did the swap my self.
