1969 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible on 2040-cars
Discovery Bay, California, United States
|
After ten years of seeing this gorgeous Buick just parked in my garage, my wife finally laid down the law. This is going to be a tough decision, because I love this car and don't really want to sell it. It is a 72,000 documented mile factory A/C car that is not only a head turner every where we take it, but really wonderful to drive as well. In the past ten years, I have not put even 200 miles on the car. It has been used for local errands and parades only and spends all of its time locked in my garage. Everything in the car works, including the original factory AM Radio. The AC is in need of a charge, but the compressor does come on when you turn on the AC switch. It has factory stage 2 wheels with red line tires and the motor is a 350 cubic inch with 2 barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. When I bought the car, it came with a ton of receipts (see photos), including DMV registration going back to 1983. All of the receipts are in the name of the gentleman who I bought the car from. The car appears to have had one repaint many years ago and it still has a beautiful deep shine. The interior is all original and in extremely nice condition. The convertible top and rear window are in wonderful shape as well. This is a car that you can get in and drive anywhere and I guarantee you, every place you take it, you will get compliments from everyone who looks at it. We live in a small resort community here in northern California and every year we get a call from the Chamber of Commerce and local Lions Club asking to use the Buick in their upcoming parades.
I believe that cars like this 69 Buick, will do nothing but go up in value as the years go by. If you have been thinking about getting a 60's era car and you want one that you can drive and enjoy, rather than spend thousands repairing, this is the one you should be bidding on. This is a rust free, 72000 mile beauty with a clean clear California Title and registration paid through 2014. I ask that you please DO NOT bid on this car, if you don't have funds available to pay for it. I am located in northern California about an hour and twenty minutes from San Francisco. If you would like to come see the Buick before you bid, just send me an email, or give me a phone call and I will be glad to make arrangements with you to see the car. I can be reached at (925) 437-4701. There are no disappointments when you come to pick this beauty up. I guarantee that you will love the car when you see it. |

Small number of 2013 Buick Encore models recalled for loose steering wheel
Thu, 04 Apr 2013General Motors has issued a recall and a stop sale for the 2013 Buick Encore due to an issue that could result in the steering wheel falling off on certain models. In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM says that 144 Encores equipped with heated steering wheels could have been incorrectly retrofitted due to a parts shortage.
Needless to say, a loose or separated steering wheel would likely cause an accident if it happened while the vehicle was in motion. The recall doesn't go into effect until April 12, but concerned Encore owners can use the official recall notice (attached below) to contact GM.
Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If 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.
Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse
Sun, 27 Apr 2014The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
