When in pursuit of the American dream in the late 1950s and early 1960s; the step from the common nameplate automobile in your driveway to one of the signature brands was a big step in prestige and value. The Buick LeSabre of 1962 was one that was designed, presented, and sold for a cost that made this transition rather seamless. The ordinary car would no longer suffice and many looked towards the Buick line to make the step at a reasonable cost. It offered majestic performance, luxury ride and smart interior decoration that was surprisingly well-priced. The LeSabre and Invicta lines were immediately recognizable by the three VentiPorts on the front fender side flanks, while the even more upscale Electra 225 line exhibited four of these distinctive accents per front fender.

This particular example was originally purchased by Donald Weber, who was the personnel manager of Packard Electric Division of General Motors in Warren, Ohio. The father of the consignor bought the car from Mr. Weber in 1964 and then transferred the title to the current consignor (his son) in 1977. The Buick is presented in Teal Mist with a complementary two-tone interior. The car is reported as factory original with 32,800 miles that are stated as actual from new.

The LeSabre is reported to be driven by the optional Wildcat 445 401-cid, 325-hp V-8 engine and is connected to a Turbine Drive automatic transmission. The master cylinder and wheel cylinders along with the brake lines have been replaced, plus select new parts with safety in mind. The exhaust system has been completely replaced with new 304 stainless steel components from the manifolds back, including the mufflers. The tires are new, factory correct Coker whitewalls, while the spare tire is the original Firestone. The Buick comes with the owner’s guide book, body service manual, chassis service manual, two LeSabre fobs with medallion and reproduction keys and one original key.
