Continuing our pattern of hard-to-find Buick coupes, MotoeXotica Classic Cars offers this 1979 Buick LeSabre Limited Sport Coupe Collector's Edition.
Made during the third week of June 1979 in GM's Flint, Michigan assembly plant (VIN code H), this example is dressed in Dark Blue Iridescent paint (code 29) with contrasting light blue cloth interior (code 24D). This example was lovingly cared for by its original owner for 34 years! Selling for a local consignor who purchased from the estate with low mileage of 5,963.
The car's paint and trim are in overall excellent condition, mirroring the minimal mileage shown on the odometer. The big chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body, the engine bay is tidy and the cargo area looks great. You have all heard vehicles are only original once. You have to see this car to believe it. Select 1978 and 1979 GM models even sported amber-colored rear turn signal lenses (e.g. Chevrolet's Camaro, Pontiac's Phoenix and LeMans) and the LeSabre coupes and sedans, among others, instead red lenses.
This car is also the perfect example of how people misinterpret Buick's Ventiport Code. Many people think it's tied to the number of cylinders the engine has but it is not. Four ports marked senior models while three ports were found on junior models until 2012, when Buick added a third layer with the Encore's two Ventiports (entry-level) per side.
This big B-body Buick rolls on Firestone FR710 white stripe radials, size P215/70R15 at all four corners. Each tire is mounted on Buick's rally wheel. The wheels and tires are all in very good order plus there is the original full-sized spare in the trunk.
Under the counterbalanced hood is a Buick 350 CID V-8 engine with a four-barrel carburetor and backed by a Turbo Hydramatic 350 three-speed automatic transmission. Driver convenience features include air-conditioning, recirculating ball power steering, power brakes with discs in front, Cruise Master cruise control and a tilt and telescoping steering column.
Inside, the car has a light blue interior (code 24E). The front bench seat is split 55/45 (code A65) and has a fold-down center armrest. The bench seats and matching carpet are all in very good order, considering the car's age. The blue dashboard has multiple wood veneer panels for warmth and contrast while the car's gauges sport silver faces, a fad at that time. A/C blows, but not cold. The blue inner panels are in great shape, as is the two-spoke steering wheel. A column-mounted shift lever and an AM/FM stereo round out the car's interior.
This car still has the factory seat belt instructions over the driver's sun visor. It drives like it came off the showroom floor yesterday. The paint, chrome and bright work are 100% showroom new. This Buick is so nice it should be in a museum.
Only minor changes including new grille and rear taillight patterns highlighted the 1979 LeSabre aside from the top-level LeSabre Custom of previous years being renamed the LeSabre Limited.
Coupe competition to this LeSabre in 1979 was plentiful � Buick's own Electra, Chevrolet's Caprice and Impala coupes, Dodge's Diplomat, Ford's LTD Coupe, Mercury's Grand Marquis Coupe, Oldsmobile's Delta 88 and Ninety-Eight coupes, Pontiac's Bonneville and Catalina coupes and Toyota's new-for-'78 Cressida.
Documentation includes the original window sticker, a 1979 title and all dealer paperwork, including the original owner's manual, dealer delivery inspection sheet, factory brochure, color chart and service manual, original keys and dealer key fob. This car won national first prize in the senior division of the Antique Automobile Club in 2014 as well as first prize in the grand national winner category at the same car show.
If you are a fan of original cars or a Buick nut you have to come and inspect this car for yourself. It has fewer than 6,000 miles on the clock and looks like it just came off of the showroom floor from the year when Skylab fell to Earth, disco was in retreat and new wave was building its influence on radio. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to see it for yourself because, after all, wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?
VIN: 4P37X9H617162
This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 5,963 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, mileage exempt title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!
