Buick Electra T Type

For a winter car and a fuel saver i got a free late 80's Buick Electra T type. Its loaded to the max (the last owners, original owners, are wealthy) Its white with red leather. All the same things my Town Cars have. I like the seats better, more plush and cloudy like.
I need to patch a brake line and its road worthy. Always maintained, at the dealer, money was never an issue.
It has the 3800 v6 w/ 179k highway miles.

Anybody know about this car or motor?

I owned a 1988 Buick Electra T-Type and must say it was one of the best cars I've ever owned. Confortable, quick, stylish for the times and a real road car. Twenty nine miles per gallon.
The 3800 V-6 GM engine has been voted one of the 10 best engines of all times by one of the leading car magazines(not sure which one). I work for a Lincoln/Mercury and Buick dealer and I see many of the cars with well over 300,000 miles.
Enjoy it.

That car ended up with to many problems, so me and my buddies demo derbied it with a Grand marquis. It took one blow in the side and broke the headlights, grill and blew the RF tire.
