Very nice 1974 Jensen Healey. The car sports its original 2 litre, 16 valve, twin overhead cam
Lotus engine and the car has only 87,785 on the odometer. The Jensen Healey is very rare having a limited
production run and in 1974 only 7,142 where produced so you don't see these cars very often. I purchased the car
from a doctor who owned, loved and took care of this rare Jensen Healey for over 30 years.
Mechanically: The car runs and drives great. The car starts right up with no issues or smoke and holds very good
oil pressure. The car was recently serviced which included a tune up, carburetors tuned and balanced, oil change,
new brake master cylinder, new windshield wiper blades. transmission & rear end fluids serviced and all other
fluids toped off. Also, this week a complete new exhaust system was installed. The car shifts up / down through all
gears with no bidding or grinding of the gears. The car drives true and straight and the steering is tight and
responsive. At this time I know of nothing the car needs other that to be driven and enjoyed.
Electrical's: This area is in excellent condition with the following items in working order. Headlights ( high &
low beam ) work , wipers work, front & rear turn signals work, front & rear running lights work, front and rear
side marker lights work, brake lights work, backup lights work, license plate lights work, dash gauge lights work,
radio works, hazard switch works, cigarette lighter works and blower fan works. Note: The stereo was just replaced
this week.
Gauges: All gauges are correct and original "Smith" brand and are in proper working order. The car does also
retains its original Jeager dash clock that works on again off again.
Interior: Nice presentable driver quality as shown in the photos.
Exterior: This is a nice driver quality exterior with like new radial tires. The car sits nicely on the ground
with no signs of leaning or sagging. As seen all body panels, hood, trunk, wheel arches, dog legs and doors are
straight.

GM expanding Lansing Lambda CUV plant
Thu, 30 Oct 2014Considering that crossovers are a rapidly growing portion of the US auto market, it's not surprising to hear that General Motors is preparing to build even more of them. The company is investing $63 million to expand its Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant that builds Lambda platform CUVs like the Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave.
According to GM, the expansion will add roughly 263,000 extra square feet of space to the plant. Of that, 181,000 square feet will be for an updated body shop with cutting-edge robots. There will also be 54,000 square feet of additional room in the paint shop and 28,000 square feet of more area for general assembly.
GM isn't saying as much, but there is the possibility that this extra space could allow for additional models produced at the factory. Cadillac reportedly dropped plans to build a three-row SUV on the Lambda platform earlier this year, however, dealers for the luxury brand were recently pitched the possibility of adding large and small CUVs, an ATS convertible or a sedan below the ATS.
Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse
Sun, 27 Apr 2014The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
