Buick Skylark was the top of the line model, a factory sport V8 car with AT,
full power steering & power brakes. This car has been fully redone &
upgraded running gear with a 1969 Chevrolet (Camaro/Chevelle SS/Corvette) L-48 High Performance style built 350 V8 coupled
to the noted Turbo 350 3-speed Automatic transmission: This vintage 350 Chevy V8
was noted for durability and high performance with a 4-bolt main & factory
10.25:1 compression. It was factory under-rated at 300 horse & 380 ft-lbs
of torque. The 350 V8 was built with modern performance additions
such as the aluminum Edelbrock Performer EPS Intake & Edelbrock 4V carb, full
Accell HP electronic ignition system & Accell high energy spark wires, low
drag lightweight cooling fan & aluminum racing radiator. The engine is
equipped with custom headers and a free flow dual exhaust… giving horsepower estimates now well over 360++
horse. This 350 V8 is equipped with tall
polished aluminum valve covers and an aluminum air filter. Under the hood you
will see newer alternator & wide belts, new hoses, battery & more. The resto-mod also includes a removable face CD
player in the dash, hidden behind a factory radio delete panel. A few of the photos
the panel was removed to show the CD radio & speaker system. This is an
estate sale and I am helping the widow move this striking vintage muscle car on
to a lucky new owner. As such, I do not have full history, but being a classic
car collector I can honestly say someone is going to get one heck of a classic muscle
car in impressive condition & running strong… a true head turner that you
can hear coming your way. SHOW
& GO!!
The car runs strong and
drives well! It sounds awesome! It has a free flow exhaust and coupled with the
headers sounds impressive…. as good as it looks! I broke the rear wheels loose
and burned rubber on my first test run without actually trying. An investment quality vehicle
you can have fun with… for weekend fun or show! TERMS OF SALE: Any vintage
car sold as-is without any owner or dealer warranty. Please ask questions prior
to bidding. Deposit due at end of auction and balance

Buick dusting off Grand National, GNX and T-Type nameplates
Mon, 26 Nov 2012Inside Line reports Buick is planning to bring back some of the more storied names from the company's past, including the Grand National, GNX and the T-Type. Those cars rose to prominence in the 1970s and '80s to become performance legends of their day.
The new models will reportedly make use of the rear-wheel drive platform that currently underpins the Cadillac ATS and all would arrive as sedans - according to an unnamed source familiar with the initiative. Odds are the T-Type and the Grand National would share a driveline, with honest money being on a new twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 as the engine of choice. Word has it the mill will be good for anywhere from 350 to 400 horsepower.
That leaves only the GNX. Inside Line seems to think that machine could get down the road with some help from the all-new GM LT1 small-block V8. The engineers behind the ATS platform have already told us the engine bay is large enough for to accommodate the big eight pot, and since GM is most certainly working on an ATS-V, a slightly less powerful, less luxurious Buick iteration makes some kind of sense. We can't wait to see these things in the light of day.

Wed, 24 Jul 2013A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.
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.
