I am listing my 1986 Buick Regal T-Type which I bought new. It has 19,150 original miles. The car has never been driven in snow and only in rain a few times in the 80’s. The paint is original and nice, as is the interior.

The Regal T-Type is equipped with a 3.8 liter V6 Buick engine which is turbocharged, intercooled, and has sequential fuel injection. It shares the same drive line as the Grand National and only differs in cosmetic items. There were only 1921 Regal T-Types built in 1986, far fewer than the 5512 Grand Nationals built that year.

The car still has its original tires, original brakes, hoses, etc. The engine has never been apart and only Mobil 1 synthetic oil has been used.

It is well equipped with bucket seats and console, T-Tops, power windows, power door locks, tilt wheel, tinted glass, halogen headlights, rear window defogger, Concert Sound system, power antenna, and limited slip differential.

The car is mostly factory stock and original, with the following changes;
Stainless dual exhaust system- still has the original catalytic converter.
VDO gauges were added to monitor boost, oil pressure, and temperature.
GNX transmission cooler.

The car has not been driven much in the last 20 years. It has been stored in a heated garage.

It does have minor wear and tear consistent with being 28 years old and having been driven 19k miles. The air conditioner does not currently blow cold.

Please ask any questions before bidding and only bid if you are a serious buyer. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. No warranty, not interested in trades.

2013 Buick Encore

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.

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?

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad

European 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.
