1965 BUICK RIVIERA. 401ci ENGINE WITH CORRECT DUAL QUAD SET UP & POSI TRACTION. RUNS STRONG & DRIVES GREAT!

THIS IS A SUPER CLEAN, STRAIGHT & SOLID CAR. NOT A MUSEUM CAR. BUT A VERY NICE DRIVER.

THE BODY: VERY SOLID & STRAIGHT! THE CAR HAS BEEN RE-PAINTED ONCE. THE PAINT SHOWS VERY WELL! IT WAS A QUALITY PAINT JOB. THERE IS A SCRATCH IN THE RIGHT FENDER. ALSO A PAINT CHIP ON THE DECK LID THAT HAS BEEN TOUCH UP (shown in photos). IT ALSO HAS A COUPLE OF STONE CHIPS HERE & THERE. I'M NIT PICKING. BUT DON'T WANT ANY SURPRISES FOR THE BUYER. ALL IN ALL THE BODY & PAINT SHOW VERY WELL!

THE ENGINE & TRANS: 401ci WITH THE CORRECT FACTORY DUAL QUAD SET UP AS ON THE GRAN SPORT MODELS. IT ALSO HAS THE ALUMINUM BUICK VALVE COVERS. I WAS TOLD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THAT THE ENGINE HAD BEEN REBUILT IN THE LATE 90's WHEN IT HAD JUST UNDER 100k MILES. BUT I DIDN'T GET ANY RECEIPTS TO PROVE THAT. THE DUAL QUADS WERE PUT ON LESS THAN A YEAR AGO. THE ORIGINAL MANIFOLD, CARB & AIR CLEANER WILL GO WITH THE CAR. THE CAR RUNS GREAT! NO SMOKE OR NOISE (IT DOES HAVE A MINOR OIL DRIP FROM OIL PAN GASKET). I ALSO WAS TOLD THAT THE TURBO 400 TRANS WAS REBUILT WITH THE ENGINE. THAT I KNOW TO BE TRUE. IT HAS A SHIFT KIT. YOU CAN FEEL IT WHEN YOU JUMP ON IT. IT'S VERY RESPONSIVE! THE NEWER FLOW MASTER EXHAUST SOUNDS GREAT! THE CAR HAS A TON OF POWER & SOUNDS LIKE IT!!

THE FLOORS & FRAME ARE SOLID. THE TRUNK PAN DOES HAVE A SMALL PATCH ON EACH SIDE BY THE WHEEL WELLS(see pics). I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TRUNK MATTING & SPARE ROAD WHEEL(THEY WERE REMOVED FOR THE PHOTOS). THE REAR SHOCKS & SPRINGS COULD USE REPLACING. A NEW SET OF SHOCKS & SPRINGS ARE INCLUDED WITH THE SALE.

THE INTERIOR: SEATS & DASH PAD ARE ORIGINAL & IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. HEADLINER HAD BEEN REPLACED WITH A VINYL ONE. I WOULD RECOMMEND GOING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL STYLE. CARPET IS SHOWING IT'S AGE(THERE IS A SMALL HOLE ON THE DRIVER SIDE). WOODGRAIN INSERTS ON THE CONSOLE ARE ALSO SHOWING THEIR AGE.

TIRES HAVE PLENTY OF TREAD LIFE. ROAD WHEELS ARE VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY. A COUPLE OF THE EMBLEMS ON THE CENTER CAPS COULD USE REPLACING.

CHROME IS VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY. SOME MINOR FADING IN SPOTS ON THE REAR BUMPER.

ALL 4 POWER WINDOWS WORK. POWER ANTENNA WORKS. POWER SEAT WORKS. BLOWER MOTOR FOR THE A/C & HEAT DOES NOT. NOT SURE WHY. I NEVER LOOKED INTO IT.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST... THE CLAM SHELL HEADLIGHTS. THEY ARE NOT WORKING. THE LINKAGE & MOTOR HAD BEEN PULLED. A GOOD USED MOTOR & LINKAGE WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE SALE.

TO SUM THINGS UP. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL & VERY DEPENDABLE CAR. STARTS WITH EASE. IDLES NICELY. HAS A TON OF POWER. IT'S A GREAT DRIVER YOU'LL BE PROUD TO DRIVE ANYWHERE. IT JUST NEEDS A FEW MINOR THINGS TO TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

I'VE TRIED TO DESCRIBE THIS BEAUTY TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE. BUT IT'S POSSIBLE I MAY HAVE LEFT SOMETHING OUT. SO SERIOUS BUYERS FEEL FREE TO EMAIL YOUR QUESTIONS. I'M OPEN TO REASONABLE OFFERS. MORE PHOTOS ARE AVAILABLE TO SERIOUS BUYERS.

Next Buick Regal to inherit styling cues from Opel Monza concept

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Ever look at a concept car from a foreign auto marque like Opel and wonder what relevance it will have to you as an American consumer? Well, we'll tell you: at least as far as the Opel Monza concept goes, it could mean a lot.
Speaking with Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show, Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said, "You will see the Monza when you see the next Insignia." And the Insignia, we needn't point out, is essentially ported over to American showrooms as the Buick Regal.
The relationship between the Regal and Insignia only stands to grow closer as Opel design chief Mark Adams has also been charged with tightening the bonds between the two automakers positioned on opposite shores of the Atlantic. Adams also intends to imbue the next Insignia with more "premium brand values" in order to "add polish to the brand." Which in turn means that the Regal will be designed to look more upscale, too.

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk

Mon, 06 May 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.
