1969 Buick Gran Sport on 2040-cars
Crimora, Virginia, United States
|
For sale is a very original 1969 Buick Gran Sport. This is a very nice driver that looks, drives, and shows very well. The car is painted black and has a red pinstripe down the side along with a vinyl top. The paint is not perfect, it has a few little chips and light scratches here and there, but nothing major. The body of the car is in great shape with no rust and no bad body work. The floorboards and trunk pans are also solid with no rust. Most of the chrome on the car is original with the exception of new 350 hood emblems, new GS quarter panel emblems, new GS grill emblem, new GS trunk emblem, and new drip rail molding. The wheels are the optional chrome Buick "Super Sport" wheels that have new B.F. Goodrich redline radials mounted on them. The sidewalls of the tires have been shaved giving the sidewall a nice smooth finish. The combination of the chrome Buick wheels and the redline radials make for a very nice addition to the car. The interior of the car is original and is in good shape. It has the optional rallye steering wheel and the optional floor console with the horseshoe shifter. The front and rear seats have no snags or tears and the carpet and door panels are in good shape. The dash has the original radio and original heater/AC controls. The headliner in the car needs a little attention at the sail panels. It is nothing major, just a matter of tightening it up a little. Under the hood is the original Wildcat 350-4 that has recently rebuilt. It has been bored .030 over, has a T/A 212 cam, new Accell ignition coil, and a Pertronix electronic distributor conversion kit. The cam specs are 218/230 duration, .459/.470 lift, and a 112 lobe center. The motor has 9.5:1 compression, the stock intake, stock exhaust with turbo mufflers, stock heads with hardened seats, and a rebuilt and jetted Q-Jet carb. The transmission is the original Turbo 350 that has a fresh complete rebuild. It has a 2200-2400 stall converter with a mild shift kit. It has an open differential with 3.23 gears. This is a very nice, driver quality car. It is a fun car to drive to cruise-ins and gets a lot of attention where ever I take it. The car is being sold as is and the buyer is responsible for pick up. I can email more pictures of the car if interested. My home phone is 540-943-4234 and cell is 540-241-9937. |

GM recalls nearly 24,000 Buick Regals for brake issue
Mon, Jul 18 2022Buick is recalling 2018-2020 model year Regals to address a software defect in the braking system that would result in a loss of power assist under certain circumstances, making the brakes difficult to operate and potentially leading to a crash. In total, 23,734 models are covered by the campaign. "In the event of a partial or full loss of vacuum-brake assist, the vehicle’s hydraulic-brake boost is designed to supply supplemental pressure to the vehicleÂ’s brake system. A software error in the electronic brake control module (EBCM) may fail to activate the hydraulic-brake boost under these conditions," GM said in its defect report to NHTSA. "If the vehicleÂ’s vacuum-power brake assist partially or fully fails, braking events may require additional stopping distance, depending on the brake pedal force applied by the driver. Increased stopping distances could increase the risk of a crash." GM says that a warning indicator will illuminate in the dash if the system completely fails, and drivers may notice an increase in brake pedal resistance. Failure will not render the brakes inoperable, but they will require more force to operate. GM has begun notifying dealers of the defect; owners should be notified starting in August.  Related video: Recalls Buick GM Safety Hatchback Wagon Sedan
Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?
Sun, Jan 10 2016Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
