Listed for auction is a pretty solid 1964 Buick Riviera.This car still wears it's original paint but as you can see it is worn and has surface rust showing in places.The body is very solid for a car this age with only minor areas that need some work like a couple of spots in the tail pan,will need work under the rear window, and a spot on the driver side front floor(patch panel included.There is a dent in the driver door skin and a couple of door dings here and there but not bad at all.All side and back glass is good but there is a crack in the windshield.I can provide a replacement for winning bidder at additional cost.The interior needs redone but it is all there.The chrome and stainless is very presentable.The original engine was in need of rebuild so a very good running 401 from a 1965 Riviera was installed in it's place.It has the correct 1964 Riviera intake manifold and carburetor along with the correct air cleaner.The transmission is original to the car and shifts very nicely.The rear end is original to the car and I believe has a 3.07 open gear.The exhaust will need work(It was rattling on my test drive today) but there is a new transverse muffler and two new tail pipes from the muffler back.Tires have a lot of tread life left and are radials.This does not have power windows but does have a power seat(needs repaired).The car does have air conditioning but is not working. All in all, this is a great project car with original sheet metal that runs drives and stops.I drove it down the street today and it tracked nice, didn't pull and stopped well.It has a cool weathered look to it, lots of patina and character.I have additional pictures available to serious buyers.Any questions please ask before bidding.Make sure that your bid is your bond.Make sure bidding is okay with other family members.Thanks for looking.


Transportation is buyers responsibility. Vehicle is sold as-is no warranty.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

Buick struggling to keep up with Encore demand

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Buick is having a hard time keeping up with demand for its all-new Encore mini-CUV, according to a report from Automotive News. The stylish, lifted five-door went on sale in January, but dealers have reported that supplies have dwindled after the initial high demand, taking the proverbial "wind out of the sails."
General Motors admits that it underestimated demand for the diminutive Buick, which is built in Korea and sold as the Opel Mokka in Europe, where it's also seen success. Buick spokesperson Nick Richards told AN, "We increased production, so there have been a lot more landing within the last month."
Buick has done a booming business, though, even with its limited supply of Encores. With over 12,000 units sold in the first half of 2013, the small CUV is on pace to annihilate industry analysts' estimates, which predicted no more than 18,500 units in 2013. We're not entirely surprised. When we first drove the Encore late last year, Autoblog professed that we had no idea how sales would turn out, as the Encore wasn't really entering into an established segment. Even so, wefound a surprising amount to like in the Encore, enough that we "wouldn't bet against it" being a major success.

GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.
