I am selling a 1973 Buick GS. This car was purchased from the second owner who had it most of its life. This car was garage kept and only has 48,000 miles. The interior is in like new condition except for the divers side arm rest which was a common place for the vinyl to crack. Also, the front drivers seat has about 8 quarter inch knife marks in the vinyl. This was done by a child who got severely disciplined. lol The car is equipped with a clock but it does not work. This car underneath is like the day it was new. I recently took the engine out and re-gasketted the engine, cleaned it, painted it and then put it back in after detailing the engine compartment. This car has like new tires, new shocks, all new dual exhaust with Thrush Welded Mufflers. When I put the engine back in, the engine received a new Carb. I also installed a new radiator. I put a new fuel pump, plugs, wires, points, rotor and cap. The car is equipped with air conditioning. I do not know it it works. The system was out of refrigerant when i bought it. When i took the engine out, i put all new o rings in the lines but never got around to charging it back up. This car is a very strong runner. I also changed the transmission fluid and filter. After I changed the transmission fluid, the transmission started to slip until the car warmed up. I do not know what that's about :(. This car has the original paint and from being waxed over the years, it could stand another paint job. The vinyl top is white and is in good shape. On last thing, the power windows and locks work great. If you have any questions about this car, please call John at 330-704-9553. Thanks!

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European 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.
Buick to add more GS models?
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Buick may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of performance automobiles, but fans of the brand know what letters to look for. If you believe the reports, there's a new GNX and Grand National on the way, but in the meantime, Buick may offer more GS models to fill the void.
Currently, the Regal is the only model available as a GS (pictured above), packing the same 259-horsepower turbo four as the Regal Turbo but enhanced with key suspension, brakes and rolling-stock upgrades. As Car and Driver notes, similar upgrades could easily be applied to the Verano and LaCrosse, although maybe not the Encore or Enclave crossovers. Of course, Buick would still have to steer clear of Cadillac's Vsport line, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a little room to play.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
