1997 Buick Regal

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Out of a combination of a lifelong automotive passion and an unyielding desire to support the people of his Alabama community, the Generous Collection was born. Mr. Greg Rusk, a successful business leader in the cardboard industry, with a big heart for helping families and friends in times of need, would regularly pay overly generous fees to acquire an interesting vehicle. After decades of collecting and supporting local automotive enthusiasts, the Rusk family is ready for these vehicles, each with their own story, to write their next chapter back on the road, where they belong.

The Generous Collection returns with Part 2 offering over 250 cars in August all offered without reserve, emerging from years of long-term silent storage. From the quiet shadows of the Generous Collection to the sunshine of backroads and highways, enthusiasts now have the opportunity to own a piece of a generous car-collecting legacy.

When the fourth generation Buick Regal bowed for the 1997 model year, it marked a return to genuine performance for the General Motors division. Buyers who worked their way up the Regal lineup could select the supercharged 3.8L L67-generation Series II V6, which was rated at a hearty 240 hp when new. Paired exclusively with a floor-shifted four-speed automatic gearbox, this combo delivered a 0-60 mph sprint of around 6.7 seconds when new.
