1978 Buick Park Avenue Electra review from North America
"I love this car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Paint faded.
Exhaust rusted off.
Vinyl roof is cracked.
Bumpers are rusty.
No wheel covers.
Defroster does not work (but that's no big deal here in Long Beach).
Air conditioner quit.
I had to replace the battery more than 5 times.
General comments?
I LOVE this ride; it is very comfortable and reliable, and gets me and my family around. Great!
