This is a very clean all original car for it's age. I bought it as a project and have ran out of time and money to mess with it. It sat up for 12 years or so, I have (cleaned the gas tank, cleaned all the metal fuel lines, replaced all the rubber fuel lines, new fuel pump, new fuel filter at the carb, cleaned the carb, new starter, new belts, new positive battery cable, and new upper radiator hose.) the car runs and drives but needs a tune up and possibly the carb to be rebuilt, it works fine the 4 barrel just doesn't open as I think it should. The interior is in real good shape, has one cut in the headliner about 2" long above the drivers head, the carpet is worn under the drivers feet, the passenger front door panel's carpet is showing some where but not terrible. other than that te interior is fully intact. The body is in good shape for the age, few dents and dings here and there but nothing major, has one rust hole on drivers quarter panel behind the wheel about 6" long and 5" tall. the front passenger front fender has had some body work done it at some point in the past, I was going to just get another one. It is missing the front grill and the chrome trim on the passenger front fender but all other trim is in tact and on the car. The car did have AC and it is still all on the car just no belt, was going to be the last thing I did so I never messed with it.
"This is a project car" It will need work, it is sold as is where is, no warrantee, what you see is what you get. I try to describe it as best as possible, Will need to be towed but will drive onto a trailer, and can even drive around the block, I have personally drove it around for 2 hours on back roads after getting it running. does need a front end alignment. only have the one picture but will load more tomorrow after I take some more. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk
Mon, 06 May 2013General 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.
eBay Find of the Day: 1981 DeLorean with 570-hp twin-turbo Buick V6 [w/videos]
Mon, 23 Dec 2013"Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?" So asked one Marty McFly of his mentor Dr. Emmett Brown, who replied: "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"
Doc Brown was right, of course: with an exotic mid-engine layout, gullwing doors and stainless steel body, the DeLorean DMC-12 sure looked the part. It just needed a little more juice. Well this one might not have 1.21 gigawatts of time-bending power - that'd be more than one and a half million horsepower - but it does have more than the 150 hp in the the standard 2.8-liter V6.
That's because this particular DeLorean has had its stock Peugeot Renault Volvo engine swapped out for a Buick-sourced, all-aluminum, 4.3-liter V6 from the Grand National. Dutteiller Performance didn't leave the engine in stock form, either: while they were swapping it out, they added a pair of turbochargers, new pistons, crank, cams and much, much more.
Opel Insignia OPC getting facelift. Will the Buick Regal GS see it, too?
Tue, 07 Aug 2012We've seen spy shots of the base Opel Insignia wearing facelifted front and rear ends, and now it appears that the more potent OPC version will be benefitting from a nip/tuck, as well.
The front bumper has been redesigned, incorporating new air intakes - toned-down versions of the model's signature fangs - as well as a new grille. Out back, there will be minimal changes to the overall fascia, most likely stuff like slightly redesigned taillamps, and inside, these spy shots show a larger navigation/infotainment screen sitting atop the center console.
This is all well and good for the Insignia, but we're wondering how these changes will impact North America's Buick Regal GS. No, it may not share the same powertrain punch as the Euro-spec OPC, but visually, the cars are nearly identical. When questioned about possible changes for the GS, a Buick spokesperson told us that the automaker "can't comment" on any changes at this point. Even so, we wouldn't be surprised if some small changes come our way in the next year or so.
