1992 Buick Roadmaster Limited Sedan 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Sterling, Colorado, United States
|
This vehicle has been owned by two families. We purchased it from the original owner when she could no longer drive. The car began life as the around-town car of an elderly lady. With us, it was first a vehicle for a regional sales position, then a daily commuter for approximately 100 miles per day, then a weekly commuter for a college student, about 300 miles per week. Eventually she retired to "backup car" status, and has had fewer trips of late.
She runs beautifully still, and has nearly-new tires. The vehicle retains much of the original equipment - in fact it still has all 4 factory floor mats, and the original owners manual. She needs a bit of a tune up, as she is presently running in the 17-20 MPG range but has been known to get closer to 22-26. In addition to new tires, the vehicle comes with a full spare, as well as all of the original trunk equipment. One of the few features not presently working on the vehicle is the instrument cluster, particularly speedometer, which controls cruise and mileage. The mileage on the odometer is not accurate. The original 5.7 Liter Engine was completely rebuilt, top to bottom, in 2010 or 2011. We have all the paperwork on this rebuild, and the actual mileage on the rebuilt motor is in the 40-60k range, mostly interstate commute. The car has been regularly maintained, and is in good working order. My daughter is having difficulty with the RW drive aspect of the vehicle, and with a Corvette Engine, the Road master is no longer a viable backup with a young driver in the house. We are downgrading to something with a little less power and Front Wheel Drive. I can't tell you how much I will miss this car. |

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
eBay Find Of The Day: 1946 Tucker Torpedo Prototype II hides a secret Riviera
Thu, 10 Jul 2014The 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?
What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
