1962 Buick LeSabre Sanded to Bare Metal then Clear Coated 401 NailHead Motor (The Wildcat 410, designated as such for the 410 ft. lb. of Torque from the factory) Fresh Tune-Up with new Plugs, Wires, Cap, adjusted Timing and installed electronic timing, new hoses and belts, new filter. Power Steering Good Brakes, but this car did NOT come originally with power brakes. Go figure. You just push a little harder than modern cars. Excellent Tires Speed Buzzer that works! (I have it set on 100mph, and it works) Heater works Great (no a/c, wasn't an option) Nice Interior with New Dash This classic runs and drives great ALL DAY!!! Would make a very cool daily driver Lots of Attention You will be the 4th owner Clear New Mexico Title in Hand This car started it's life as a special order for a police department in Arizona. It was to compete against a Chevy and a Ford to determine a new squad car. It performed well in trials, but the Wildcat couldn't escape it's poor gas mileage. It was auctioned off, and a nice lady bought it and drove it for a long time, and eventually parked it under some trees on her land. Soon after, her next door neighbor rang the door bell and asked if he could buy it. You see, he had just received news that he had cancer. His doctor felt it would be good for his immune system if he were to find something that really needed cleaning, and then scrub it clean. The doctor wanted him to imagine his immune system cleaning the cancer away. He immediately thought of this old car with sap being dripped on it, and he made his offer. He went straight to work, and he scrubbed and he scrubbed, and eventually the cancer went away. Well, I don't know, but I bought the car from him, and I just couldn't shake his story. He seemed very sincere. I had spent a little time with him, and he was a normal, genuine man in his late 60's. I hated the idea of just painting over this car, but it needed something. I wanted something special for a special car. I felt that stripping this car down to the bare metal would pay homage to this unique classic, and pay homage to it's previous owners. Think about it. This is as original as it gets. This is as survivor as it gets. There is nothing hidden, nothing painted over. So I went to work taking this car down to it's bare metal. I created the exact look I wanted as I went. It has a nice pattern of swirls that only show in different lights. It looks incredible. It looks so much better in person. I can honestly say that. It took weeks, but somehow in all that hard work, I felt a sort of spiritual cleaning. The car seemed to draw me closer to God in some strange way. It was like God was sanding down the enamels in my life that were hiding problems. Maybe all that's a bunch of hog wash, but then again, maybe its not. I don't think this car healed that man, and I know it didn't heal me. But, it has given me reason to think that there is something very special about it. Something better. Something bigger. I haven't had this much fun driving a car in a very long time. It looks so good, and it drives so good. It is a solid car. It is quicker than most cars on the road, and I LIKE THAT! This car draws a lot of looks and a lot of attention. Be ready to show it at the gas station or wherever you take it. People just are drawn to it. They like it. The bare metal wows everybody. The comment that sticks out the most is, "THAT'S SICK MAN!" It is sick man. I'm kinda connected with this car now. Feel free to ask questions or whatever. You can even call me. (505) 259-1119 I can FaceTime or Skype you and show you the car. I'd be happy to do a walk around and start it up and burn YOUR rear tires off if you want. Whatever, I'm a car guy, and I like to talk about my cars. This is an old car. It is not fully restored. It has quirks, but they're not annoying quirks. It has a small leak. It has dents and rust spots. There's some sand marks on a few windows. They are very obvious in the pictures. It starts immediately, always has. Warms up immediately. Smokes the back tires. What more do you want? This is an underpriced, no reserve auction for a classic car. There are no warranties or returns. Ask you questions now. Talk to your boss now before you bid. |

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

2019 Buick LaCrosse Sport Touring isn't that sporty
Mon, Jul 2 2018The 2019 Buick LaCrosse Sport Touring is presumably a new, sportier version of Buick's large sedan. And on the surface, it does look more exciting. It has less chrome trim than its counterparts, the grille gets a body color surround and a black wire mesh insert. It has a simple little spoiler at the back, 19-inch wheels, and the all-important badging. We can't imagine Ford is thrilled at the use of the "ST" nomenclature on display at the back, though. Unfortunately, Buick hasn't really done anything to actually make this car sportier than other LaCrosse sedans. It has the same 3.6-liter V6 found in other versions making the same 310 horsepower and 268 pound-feet of torque. That power goes through the same nine-speed automatic as the others, too. Additionally, the Sport Touring is only available with front-wheel drive. Still, if you like the style, and the LaCrosse's standard performance is suitable to you, you'll want to know how much it costs. Base price is $41,220. You'll also have a choice of five colors: white, black, red, and two kinds of silver. And if the LaCrosse ST isn't sporty enough for you, you might want to check out the Regal GS. It has the same engine, but with a bit more torque, all-wheel drive, is in a smaller body, and has hatchback versatility.
