1961 Buick Lesabre - 2 door Hardtop (Bubbletop) The 1961 Buick Lesabre
Bubbletops are becoming very popular and desirable due to their classic
and definitive lines. This Lesabre is equipped with the original
Factory 364 Buick V8 and 3 speed Automatic transmission. The Leasbre
also is equipped with factory Power Steering and Power Brakes. This
Lesabre is a southern car and is a true barn find that had
been stored inside for approximately 20 years until I purchased it
about 2 years ago. (see picture). The gas tank was flushed and all
fluids changed and the Buick started right up. Brakes were renewed. The
body is very solid and straight. The floor pans, trunk pan and frame
are solid. (Drivers floor pan has had a patch panel welded in years ago
and is hard to tell from original. The Lesabre was stripped to bare
metal and repainted in high quality base coat clear coat paint, back to a
color close to original. Both front and rear bumpers and guards were
re-chromed. All stainless is good. All glass is with no cracks. The seats are
finished in a fabric and vinyl combination. Door panels are original to the car and show some minor wear. Padded dash has been also
recovered, and the rear package tray is new. We just installed a new
3 row Aluminum radiator with electric fan. Also just added are the 18 inch and 20 inch Billet
Polished wheels that gives this classic a more current pro touring
appearance. The Buick has also been lowered 2 inches front and rear for a
great stance. The Buick runs, drives and stops nice. This Buick is
truly a rare find. It is a true survivor with all original running
gear. You will be proud to own, drive and show this classic. I have
driven the Buick hundreds of miles and its never left me stranded. As
usual the Buick will be sold as is where is without any warranty, either
expressed, written or implied. If you are in the area please come by
and inspect this beautiful and rare classic in person. If this is not
possible please review my Ebay rating on a few other classics I have

year old classic so please do not hesitate to call or email with any questions or
concerns. You can contact me at Jmoore@southern.edu. I will not respond to emails that ask what the reserve is but if you are sincerely interested in a "buy it now",

Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores
Wed, 05 Jun 2013After being crushed from every which way and rolled over like a labrador, the 2013 Buick Encore has been named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. To earn the accolade, a vehicle must achieve the highest rating of "Good" in each of the institute's four main crash tests: Front Moderate Overlap, Side, Rollover and Rear. The Encore aced those four tests with "Good" ratings, but missed out on the coveted Top Safety Pick+ designation by receiving a Poor rating in the institute's new Front Small Overlap test. To be named a Top Safety Pick+, the Encore would need to score at least an "Acceptable" rating in the new test, as well as "Good" in all four original crash tests.
Despite the miss, the Encore joins the Enclave, LaCrosse, Verano and Regal as Top Safety Picks all. If you count only the Encore with all-wheel drive, then all five Buicks have also earned five-star overall ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminstration, making Buick one of the few manufacturers to offer a full lineup with high scores from both safety rating organizations.
The front-wheel-drive Encore, despite performing equally as well as the all-wheel-drive version in NHTSA's crash tests, only earned four stars overall. As far as we can tell, the discrepancy between the two is because some safety equipment, like Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Assist, are optional features on the FWD Encore and standard on the AWD model.
How to hack a Buick Regal with CarKnow
Thu, 08 Aug 2013If you own an Apple iPhone or Android device, perhaps you've been tempted to jailbreak or root it. This process gives you access to the the software's code, and can be used to make minor or drastic changes to its operating system. CarKnow, a company in Boston, is working applying a similar concept to the automobile.
Translogic recently took a look inside CarKnow to see just how it can tweak the computers inside a car and what sort of things can be done. As our transportation tech sister site explains, CarKnow basically created a digital duplicate of their Buick Regal in the cloud, while harvesting data generated to create custom apps and infiltrate the deepest function of their test car.
And before you freak out about people maliciously taking over your car, CarKnow's founder, Josh Siegel, stresses that it isn't quite so easy as driving up alongside someone. Take a look at the full video below to see just what it's like to jailbreak a car.
