Listed for auction is a RARE 1964 Buick Riviera wearing its original paint and interior.This is a car that has been sitting since 1982.It was purchased from the original owner 4 years ago by the neighbor across the street,then purchased by me.He had intentions of getting it running but decided at 83 years old it was time to let it go.This is one of 2122 Rivieras built in 1964 with the 425 Super Wildcat KX code engine with dual carbs and dual snorkel air cleaner. The carbs and intake with all linkages intact.It has the original transmission and rear end which was ordered as an open rear end gear.It has a power driver seat,power antenna,AM radio,door edge guards,a/c and tinted windows.It wears its original hubcaps.I have the original owners manual and the protect plate to verify.The body is very solid but it does have areas that will need attention,trunk ,rear window and driver side floor by where your left heel would rest.The rest of the body is solid and straight with the exception of the drivers door skin(one dent).The paint is oxidized and there is some surface rust in areas.Some people are paying big money to paint their cars to look like this patina.The interior needs a total re-do.The chrome and stainless is in very good condition.When I tried to turn the engine over it wouldn't budge.The old fellow that I purchased the car from drained the oil for some reason and it sat for a long while with no oil.This numbers matching engine (see picture) was pulled and inspected and was able to be turned over.There is no major engine failure but it will need to be gone through(rebuilt) AND IS INCLUDED WITH THE CAR.I installed a 401 that I had that runs great,and topped it with the original intake set up.The gas tank and fuel system was gone through as well as the brakes,new master cylinder,wheel cylinders,hoses and front shoes.The car runs drives and stops however it was just in my driveway,needs tires.This is a great restoration project.They are getting hard to find "all there".The ORIGINAL NUMBERS MATCHING KX CODE block(with matching serial number) will go with the car and can be put in the trunk for transport.Please don't ask if this can drive to California,it will have to be transported.That being said this car could easily be driving around with little work.Title is clear in previous owners name.Any questions please ask.

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
