This car is solid, it has no rust, anywhere. It has been kept inside for as much of its life as I could check into. The following items have been redone just this past year, and rarely driven since.
1. body work and paint- it has been worked on by a professional car body restorer. it has had a beartiful paint and body work job completed on it.
2. a professional engine rebuild- to original specs (see #6)
3. an entire interior, all vynal, carpet, convertible top and boot are all new and to orginal specs
4. Drive train, airconditioner, control switches etc, etc have all been gone through and put in good working order
5. a true "grandsport" nothing fake about it, operational hood scoops with all orginal working parts
6. note- there have been five modifacations to the restoration of this vehicle that I thought were good for the car but not "orginal" 1. a "mild performance" cam was installed with the restoration because of the high elevation where I live. 2. A electronic distributer was installed. 3. A satilatte radio with cd player was installed. 4. A after market cruise control was added. it looks orginal inside the car but has a box mounted on fender under hood. 5. To balance out the dash cluster unit I added a a/c vent from orginal parts and put it where the convertable top switch was and relocated the switch to the left and somewhat under the dash, this made the dash instrument cluster much more balance and gave the driver better a/c effeciancy.
7. I have all the orginal parts to put the car back to its total orginal condition. note all the interior, paint color and all other restoration work is to orginal specs, including color.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk
Mon, 06 May 2013General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.
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.
