This vintage Buick Skylark was the top of the line model, a factory sport V8 car with AT, full power steering & power brakes. This car has been fully redone & upgraded running gear with a 1969 Chevrolet (Camaro/Chevelle SS/Corvette) L-48 High Performance style built 350 V8 coupled to the noted Turbo 350 3-speed Automatic transmission: This vintage 350 Chevy V8 was noted for durability and high performance with a 4-bolt main & factory 10.25:1 compression. It was factory under-rated at 300 horse & 380 ft-lbs of torque. The 350 V8 was built with modern performance additions such as the aluminum Edelbrock Performer EPS Intake & Edelbrock 4V carb, full Accell HP electronic ignition system & Accell high energy spark wires, low drag lightweight cooling fan & aluminum racing radiator. The engine is equipped with custom headers and a free flow dual exhaust… giving horsepower estimates now well over 360++ horse. This 350 V8 is equipped with tall polished aluminum valve covers and an aluminum air filter. Under the hood you will see newer alternator & wide belts, new hoses, battery & more. The resto-mod also includes a removable face CD player in the dash, hidden behind a factory radio delete panel. A few of the photos the panel was removed to show the CD radio & speaker system.

This is an estate sale and I am helping the widow move this striking vintage muscle car on to a lucky new owner. As such, I do not have full history, but being a classic car collector I can honestly say someone is going to get one heck of a classic muscle car in impressive condition & running strong… a true head turner that you can hear coming your way.

SHOW & GO!! The car runs strong and drives well! It sounds awesome! It has a free flow exhaust and coupled with the headers sounds impressive…. as good as it looks! I broke the rear wheels loose and burned rubber on my first test run without actually trying.

An investment quality vehicle you can have fun with… for weekend fun or show!

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

Buick dusting off Grand National, GNX and T-Type nameplates

Mon, 26 Nov 2012

Inside Line reports Buick is planning to bring back some of the more storied names from the company's past, including the Grand National, GNX and the T-Type. Those cars rose to prominence in the 1970s and '80s to become performance legends of their day.
The new models will reportedly make use of the rear-wheel drive platform that currently underpins the Cadillac ATS and all would arrive as sedans - according to an unnamed source familiar with the initiative. Odds are the T-Type and the Grand National would share a driveline, with honest money being on a new twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 as the engine of choice. Word has it the mill will be good for anywhere from 350 to 400 horsepower.
That leaves only the GNX. Inside Line seems to think that machine could get down the road with some help from the all-new GM LT1 small-block V8. The engineers behind the ATS platform have already told us the engine bay is large enough for to accommodate the big eight pot, and since GM is most certainly working on an ATS-V, a slightly less powerful, less luxurious Buick iteration makes some kind of sense. We can't wait to see these things in the light of day.

Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
