 1968 Buick Skylark convertible with only 54k miles. I was on the way to a full restoration but have to let it go unfinished. I will start to say that everything mechanical was restored and this car runs and drives like new engine is whisper quiet and smooth. Transmission was rebuilt, engine had gaskets and seals and full paint restoration at that time and no leaks anywhere everything was done from belts hoses etc. needs nothing! Brakes are all new as well exhaust system. Shocks and tires are new and battery too. The seats have been restored professional and look like factory new, rest of interior parts are great. I have a complete new carpet kit, all door seals and window seals included. All the exterior stainless trim is present and in excellent shape with many spares included that were collected through the years to make an excellent set. I had found a better rear bumper and had it re chromed which is also included and seen in pics, front bumper is great. I don't have the fender skirts but do have the stainless rear wheel well trim instead, the body still has the tabs for skirts. The top is fairly new and in perfect shape and goes up and down with the dash button perfectly. The boot cover is good but could use some of the plastic attaching clips. Original spare tire and jack in trunk. The floors and trunk are 100% solid with no rust through just surface rust, scuff and paint. The whole underside, frame and body was cleaned, painted with epoxy paint. Door jams, trunk and under hood yellow areas are already painted. The only thing left to do is the outside body work. The rear quarter panels will need the most work, front fenders and doors real good shape, again the outer body is the only thing left to do and then you will have an outstanding classic. I have someone that can assist in delivery if needed. I am located 45 minutes west of Milwaukee. You can call me with any questions if you would like. Paul @ 262-470-0604

I had a question from someone about what trim is there. the dual trim strips are there that run down the center of the trunk, the strip is there that runs down the center of the hood and on the backside of hood. all the trim is there that runs down the curved body lines on the side of car. and all the trim around headlamps and upper door and window edges. everything is included  I guess a lot of the 68's are missing that side curved body trim which I think really makes the look of the car.

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.

Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.

Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
