1969 Buick Electra 225?
I have a 2 door, Limited Edition 1969 Buick Electra. It has a custom paint job (green, and striped). It has eletric seats and windows, air conditioning and heater, all new interior, crome rims, tinted windows, runs great, in amazing condition, AM/FM radio, plays cassettes, tilted steering wheel, air shocks, and a 430 engine. Its won car awards. can anyone give me a estimate of how much its worth. please give serious answers. i know its worth quit a bit.

If you know it’s worth "quite a bit", how come you don’t know what it’s worth?
Truth is, the later 60s big Buicks are not the classy vehicles the earlier ones are. The 430 is a great engine, but the cars with the Nailhead engine command more money.
I also am curious what you mean by "custom paint job" because if it’s not a stock paint job and a color based on the code of the data plate, it’ll cost you a few bucks – non-stock paint usually warrants a value deduction. And chrome rims . . .are those the Buick rims or something else? Ditto for that too.
The fact that it has won car shows means nothing. Has it won a national Buick show or something like Hershey? That’s what will matter to some people, but it’s the condition of the car that will speak to the buyer, not a trophy.
The fact that it’s a 2-door does help the car, but I would think you’d have a hard time finding someone who would spend more than 15 grand for a car like this, if not 10 grand.
