Hello, up for bid is a very nice tribute Grand National / T-Type . It was originally a 3.8 v6 car with 200metric trans and a 241 rear differential.
This car has been extensively redone in the GN/T-Type style. Just some Items that I have installed on vehicle.
- vortec 350 engine with fuel injection
- 283 roller comp camshaft specs are, int.283, exh. 303 part # is 08-600-8 comp cams
- duel exhaust w/ flowmaster mufflers
- 200r4 transmission
- 8.5 rear end with 342 gears out of a real GN
- duel cooling fans
- new radiator
- new water pump
- floor shifter
- bucket seats
- new carpet
- steel GN/T-Type turbo hood
- 3.8 turbo header panel ornament
- paint job done over 4 years ago
- hurricane alloy wheels
- and many many more items. you will have to see pics
- The engine , transmission, rear end are all in good shape. the interior is in above condition I have installed bucket seats but I do have seat covers over them they are not ripped just not a match to the rest of the interior.
- I replace the factory cam in this engine with the 283 comp cam and upgraded the valve springs to match this cam, but I haven't driven the car many miles since then.
- This was a bench seat car with column shifter, and I have converted it to a floor shifter.
- Now for the bad:
- The paint has a few places it has chipped off.. on front fender and hood, also has chip around rear glass. this paint is over 4 years old
- I haven't been able to hook up shifter , the cable is there as well as the brackets needed on the transmission but I may have purchased a Camaro shifter cable and its about 2 inches to short .
- The duel exhaust is home made and it is functional, how ever its not pretty , since the car looks so good would recommend a exhaust shop do it better
- I lost my job and I have to sell my friend that I love dearly. The bills are piling up and I have to sell her . If you by her please give her a good home. She's a survivor.
- Don't forget she's a older car, so she's not perfect, but she has a whole lot of life left in her.

OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles
Thu, 06 Jun 2013As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.
Scroll down below for the complete press release with all the details.
2013 Buick Encore
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ignored On Arrival, But Coming On Strong
An image exists out there that perfectly conveys the fate we thought would befall the Buick Encore after its world debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. The shot shows the just-unveiled Encore on stage, basking in the glow of spotlights but surrounded by a large display area that's bereft of both cars and people. Two journalists are sitting on a couch over to the side, both facing the Encore but ignoring it as they inspect their swag, and a solitary custodial engineer pushes a vacuum back and forth across a sea of gray carpet.
Like a kid with his birthday cake at a party no one came to, this little crossover's debut was largely, almost cruelly, ignored. Who can blame us, though? Two shows ago, the Motor City's main stage welcomed the redesigned Aston Martin-esque Ford Fusion, the 3 Series-assassin ATS from Cadillac and the return of Dodge to the small car game with the Dart. A fourth model for the wayward Buick brand, especially one so arguably un-Buick in form and function, did not seem to deserve the attention paid to its peers that year.
Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
