1969 Buick Skylark from Fla.showing less than 12,000 miles. (last owner claimed correct mileage but being sold as un documented) As you can see the average resale price for this car is over 14k as a number # 3/ Average and with the GS cloned being over 17k. This car is in a solid # 3 condition and I can supply the insurance valuation and also the replacement value. The drive-train appears to be totally original with a dual exhaust that was added to the 350 V8. It was originally 230 HP and now is closer to 250 HP. It comes with the GS rims that are on it and the original Hubcaps and all the original glovebox documentation. You could take this to a GS 350 level with a hood and air cleaner. This year GS 350 had bench seat not buckets as the GS 400 had. We really don’t know the history but we were told that this car came out of a collection outside of buffalo n.y. It has been stored in a heated garage for the last 16 years and started and run every month. I actually went thru the car and it has good wheel cylinders.brakes, tuneup, fan belts, battery, plug wire, tires, radio works so do all the lights and it is clean! Drives good and it doesn't shake rattle and roll. Exterior The car is finished in what is proposed to be its original color on the exterior (12 years ago) and looks good with the coat of wax on it. It does have the usual nicks and a couple of bubbles at the drivers door. On pass rear quarter there are some outward pin dents from jack i think(see pictures)I haven’t really looked this over as well as I usually do because I didn’t pick this car out. The paint took wax good and will be sufficient, till you decide to paint it again. The Buick appears to have new or re- chromed bumpers and trim. It is not a perfect car but it is a good driver quality. There are 3 bumps on the pass quarter that look to be caused by the jack in the trunk ( please look at pictures) Interior It does have a PPG replacement seat covers and door panels but the rear seat armrest are still original and need to be replaced or stained. They are in good shape but are not the bright white the rest of the interior is(see pictures). All the gauges work except the lighter and it needs to be replaced. The radio dials are missing and I am looking for them.The radio works fine. The Buick has seatbelts and carpet and they are in good shape. The top is electric and works well, It needs a little help when it is being raised from the down position and has the cover. Trunk / Engine Trunk has been sprayed with splatter paint and has Jack and spare in place. Engine has a tuneup, oil change and the following new parts as told by the previous owner. New aluminum radiator New water-pump New power top (Original color and design) that works great Newer radial tires Newer brakes This 69 Buick Skylark Convertible Is in average condition but is solid enough to take to the next level. It has decent bones and you will have fun driving it. Again we are selling at # 3 driver condition. So bid to own. |

GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met
Sat, May 9 2015After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four 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.
NHTSA may greatly expand GM airbag recall
Wed, 05 Jun 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is pondering whether to dramatically upscale a pair of airbag recalls on General Motors vehicles. The two existing campaigns, one launched in the fall of 2012 and the other in January of this year covered just 6,845 vehicles, but the government agency is considering whether to boost the recall to around 400,000 units.
The existing recalls involve the the closely related 2012 Buick Verano (shown) and Chevrolet Cruze sedans, along with Sonic and Camaro models. The root of the problem is a shorting bar in the inflator module of the steering-wheel-mounted airbag that may contact the primary state airbag terminal, a condition that could prevent deployment in an accident. Dealer technicians have been replacing the steering wheel airbag coils to fix the issue.
According to a post on NHTSA's website, the root cause, said to be a production issue, may not have been completely isolated - particularly for the second recall, which was for the Camaro. According to Automotive News, GM says it is cooperating with the government investigation, but won't say whether or not it knows the true origin of the problem.
