1970 Buick Gs 455 on 2040-cars
Flemington, New Jersey, United States
1970 GS 455 in diplomat blue with blue bucket interior and black vinyl top. 1 owner Texas vehicle. Just brought to NJ. Absolutely no rust in panels, trunk or floors (which still show blue factory overspray). One spot of rust was visible on the inside lower trim at rear window bottom. This is an early built GS as evidenced by the White top overflow and pointed gauges. All original never out of car 455 SR stamped engine and BA turbo 400 trans. Original rear still resides and is a non-posi 10 bolt. The paint, although laquer I believe is a second shoot and not original. There is checking visible is a few spots. It has a luster but will need some minor door dings and a dent in lft rear qtr removed. Also d/s door at the front needs a little repair. The vinyl top is original and does not show signs of any rust underneath. Motor runs good and trans shifts good but sometimes takes a moment to go into first gear. I am going to change the fluid and gasket and will update the progress if there is any. The car retains all original motor and trans mounts. Also new muffler and tail pipes have been istalled. Extra engine and intermediate pipes are in the truck. The original head pipes were in great shape and remain on the car. A new grille was installed and the original is in the trunk. Also a new fuel pump has been installed and the original is also in the trunk. Both bumpers are the originals. The front has a slight bend dead center and that is what probably cracked the grille. This is a great all original candidate with Protecto-plate for authenticity.It is a dry Texas body worhty of restoration or some TLC. Low production puts this car in this trim configuration at around 5-600 made.And lets not forget the 510 ft pounds of torque....oh yea that's what makes her a fun ride. Options include power drum brakes,455,A/C,d/s remote mirror, bucket seats,console,wheel well mldgs,and door edge guards. The front seats will need vinyl. Thanks and good luck.

2013 Buick Encore
Mon, 10 Dec 2012City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.
Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse
Sun, 27 Apr 2014The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
