1970 Buick Skylark Gs Clone on 2040-cars
North East, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I haved owned this vehicle for almost 20yrs. I don't have much time to enjoy it anymore so its time to go. I will list everything to the best of my memory. BODY: Frame off resto. was done in 95' with PPG paint. The body does have a couple spots of surface rust but nothing major. Everything else listed here are things I have done in the past 10 years. No rust on front or rear bumper, and the Front bumper has been rechromed. 17" Black Torque thrust type rims. Alpine Head unit with MB quart speakers and amps. "Fat mat" through out interior and truck to reduce road noise. Steel GS hood with rebuilt hood hinges. SUSPENSION/BRAKES: 4-way AIR RIDE all around, Disc brake conversion up front, Saginaw quick ratio steering box from Jeep Cherokee (2 turns lock to lock I think?) 1.5" sway bar up front. ENGINE: Buick 350 Bored .03 over by Tregler Racing, Hot tanked, decked, line bored, and cylinder bored .03 over. 10-10 the crank, Badger pistons, Poston cam, intake, TAperformace Roller rockers, TAperformace rebuilt heads, Rebuilt carb, 4 core radiator, MSD Distrubutor (within the past year), Hooker headers into 2.5" flowmaster exhaust. Transmission hasn't been touched, it was next on the to do list. It shifts fine, but does drip a couple drops of fluid while sitting. U joints have been replace in the drive shaft. Rear diff. is the standard "cross country" gears. The car runs great and drives nice, it has always been in a garage in the summer and stored in the winter. It just need someone with time to drive it. Please e-mail with any questions as I'm going off of memory. |

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.
Movie Review: Black Air: The Buick Grand National Documentary
Thu, 06 Dec 2012As Buick currently claws and scratches its way back into relevance to compete against luxury brands like Lexus and Acura, it's hard to believe that not too long ago, the brand had a car that was mentioned in the same breath as Corvette, Lamborghini and Ferrari. That car? None other than the Buick Grand National. All black with a turbocharged V6 and some of the quickest acceleration of its time, the Grand National, in today's standards, is along the lines of a 2013 Shelby GT500 with both cars essentially being a working man's supercar.
The last Grand National rolled off the assembly line in Flint, MI on December 11, 1987, and to mark the silver anniversary of that somber occasion, Black Air is a documentary of the Grand National from the perspective of the enthusiast, the collector, the media and even from those at General Motors responsible for creating such a sinister legend. Like the car itself, Andrew Filippone Jr. shoots the documentary in a raw fashion, and it definitely helps to show why a low-volume muscle car from the 1980s is still the object of obsession for many automotive enthusiasts to this day.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
