Planning to purchase a new drivers side headlight assembly, (it's very cloudy looking compared to the new one on the right).

The wife has driven most of the miles on this car, to from work, church, grocery store. She and friends have made 5 recent trips between Central Kentucky and Fort Worth, Austin TX. 1200 miles one way, I personally would trust the car to make the trip today, but remember this is a used car with 134k miles and doesn't have a warranty implied or expressed.

Now The negative, 2 months ago The wife lightly sideswiped the rear bumper of a pickup truck in a tight parking lot, all damage on passenger side, at very low speed, headlight cracked (replaced), front fender damage (purchased OEM front fender, not installed but included) passenger front door has some dents, damage. Some small dents rear wheel well crown just behind rear door seam. See the pictures of the damage. It isn't major or overly ugly but front door needs replaced or repaired, front fender needs installed or repaired, or just reinstall the plastic wheel well and drive it the way it is now. The paint is bubbling up in a small area under gas door. I purchased a 2005 LeSaber to replace this one, same car just newer (she likes Buicks). This car was purchased in 2003 from the orig owner with 27000 miles and has been the wife's only daily transportation and has been very dependable. I really hate to sell the car but need the funds to help pay for the 2005. This is not a junk car but a high insurance estimate including my 1k deductible borderline met the total loss guideline. The car has a clear title no liens or restrictions. Questions call 859-925-3248

Note: there isn't any hidden damage that I'm aware of,  the streak on the door is a light reflection. Terrible picture taking with a cheap camera. Same on passenger side reflection of the building behind me. Getting good pictures right isn't easy for a photo dummy. Any and all questions will be answered!

GM China President says automaker could export vehicles from China to US

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

At a press conference on Saturday at the Shanghai Motor Show, General Motors announced plans to further expand its presence in the Chinese market. Among those commitments are plans to build four new plants by the end of 2015, giving the automaker the capacity to produce around five million vehicles a year in the country.
In order to make the most of that expansion, GM is adding 400 dealerships in China this year alone (for a total of 4,200 sales points), and it's eyeing 5,100 dealers by 2015. Yet not all of that production will stay in China - GM is planning to increase exports as well. Officials estimate the company will export somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 Chinese-built vehicles this year - a record. And it's gunning for more.
Autoblog asked GM China president Bob Socia (above) if that means the company might eventually export new vehicles built in China to the United States, and he responded:

2014 Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse recalled over brake mix-up

Thu, 08 May 2014

The recall madness over at General Motors isn't letting up anytime soon, as evidenced by this latest call-back of 8,208 Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans. For those keeping track, this is the fifth recall that GM has announced in the past two weeks, not to mention the massive ignition-switch issue from earlier this year.
GM issued a statement saying these sedans are being recalled due to "possible reduced braking performance," according to Automotive News. The problem? Rear brake rotors may have accidentally been installed in the front brake assembly. And since both cars use more robust braking systems up front than out back, braking power could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Automotive News reports that, of the over 8,000 cars being recalled, about 1,700 are currently in the hands of customers, while the others are still in dealer inventory. GM is unaware of any crashes or injuries related to this problem. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2014 model year.

eBay Find Of The Day: 1946 Tucker Torpedo Prototype II hides a secret Riviera

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

The Tucker Torpedo is one of the great what-if stories of automotive history. Preston Tucker hoped to revolutionize the industry with a car unlike any other on the road at the time. However, due to a variety of problems, he only managed build 51 vehicles before closing shop. Over time, they have become highly sought-after; In 2012, one sold for $2.65 million at auction.
That brings us to this Tucker "replica" that you see above because it might be one of the ugliest monstrosities ever put together. However, we might extend some leniency to the creator, as the vehicle isn't actually trying to replicate the classic look of the 1948 Tucker Torpedo. Instead, it is attempting to reproduce an earlier prototype from 1946 that actually features that weird, trident nose. According to the seller, his uncle built the car as a labor of love and supposedly used actual plans from Tucker as inspiration.
Underneath all of the crazy changes is a 1971 Buick Riviera powered by a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) Buick V8. Some of the replica's odder modifications include the front fenders that turn with the wheels and the fin running down the back. All three headlights work, but the one in the middle is only for the high beams. Oddly, the small hinged sections on the roof are meant to open to avoid hitting your head when getting in or out. Maybe the seller's uncle was a very tall guy?
