1988 Buick Electra Estate

Hi guys and gals

I'm going to look at a 1988 wagon on Sunday. Any advice on model specific/B body stuff to look for besides the normal things.

Also does someone have a list of options available for that year. And if there are mechanical options that can easily be identified by coolers like a tow package or what the code for a limited slip rear would be on the door jam.

Thanks for the help

Limited slip rear end is code G80 and there is a visible stainless dog tag under one of the bolts on the differential cover.

Auto load leveling rear shocks is G67 and there is a visible air compressor under the hood on the drivers side fender.

Tow package is V92 and there is usually another sticker stating " this vehicle is equipped with a trailer towing package, see owners manual" next to the Service Parts I.D. sticker. The SSID sticker will be under the third seat access door or sometimes in the spare tire area.

Good luck.

 

Thx for the help bigboats

Any chance you have a list of the rest of the options available? Turns out it's a lesabre estate not an electra.
