1971 Buick Skylark GS clone
Been Garage kept and maintained for the 12 years I've owned it. 90% finished, needs new paint job, small minor body work, new registration and re-chroming on bumpers to bring the hi-performance muscle car to mint condition and value around 15K. Car is rust free with no corrosion
455 Motor is immaculate along the the TH-400 tranny set up with the reverse valve body Hurst quick shift set-up for fast shifting that will churp your tires between each gear. THIS CAR IS VERY FAST WITH LOTS OF TORQUE
Engine block has all after market springs, lifters, rockers, cam, pistons and manifolds and the transmission is set up with hi performance sprags to be sure the gears can handle the horse power without ripping them apart. Hooker headers, Flowmaster duel exhaust, Holley 4 barrel carb
Brand new, white vinyl top, black vinyl interior, black carpet and racing seats with racing harness seat belts. Racing Alloys with good tires can also include 20' chrome wires for additional 1K. Wood grain steering wheel
I just had the engine and transmission set up appraised by Gilbertson Automotive who build these cars and he felt very comfortable telling me 6K for both. I basically added 2K on top for the rest of the car because it does need minor work and paint. The custom "cranberry" paint was beautiful at one point if into keeping it the same color, changes from red to a crazy purple when its sunny then night time.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience
Thu, 29 Nov 2012JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
2015 Buick Verano offered with six-speed manual after all
Mon, 09 Jun 2014Good news, boys and girls (well, at least those of you who still like shifting for yourselves). Buick got in touch with us to correct some information that it had mistakenly announced; namely, that the 2015 Verano will lose its optional six-speed manual transmission. Apparently, that announcement was incorrect, and the compact sedan will indeed continue to offer a manual option for 2015, despite what we're certain is a low take rate. Additionally, the Desert Dusk Metallic paint that was said to come as part of an Appearance Package is no longer part of the deal. With that out of the way, we now return you to your regularly scheduled automotive-obsessive broadcast...
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
