I have a 1970 buick skylark custom for sale,original ac,power steering,power brakes.It has a very clean body with NO rust on the outer body panels!Just surface rust from being in primer for awhile.There is minor rust in the trunk floor and pass floor board.You can still see the original paint thru the primer.The front bumper had been hit at some point and has minor damage to the front pass fender and grill.I have a good fender I will sell to purchaser if wanted after auction.Front bumper is fixable.Bothe the front and rear bumpers would need rechroming.I was just going to paint them.It had a vinyl top that was removed because it had deteriorated.When I bought the car in 2008 it had no motor,so I had a 5.7 motor out of a 81 vette rebuilt and installed.It problebly has maybe 200 miles on it.It ran and drove great,I even had new duels and flowmasters installed.Well long story short,lost interest and have to much going on in life.The car has not been on the road since 2010.It runs and shifts into gears great.Idles a little ruff do to old gas.Mechanically good,I would bleed the brakes and maybe drain the old gas out of the tank.There is a small spot on the firewall that will need a patch panel behind the distributer.The alt needs different brackets and I do have a power steering pump that is not installed that will go with the car.The tires were bought new when I put the new motor in.Like I said might have a few hundred miles on them.Not dryrotted.The car has sat in a garage since I have owned it! The interior will need some help.Door panels are ruff,no head liner,front seat is white,looks like it came out of a cutlass.The previous owners messed up the metal behind the rear seat were the speakers go.For what reason I don't know.I do have a few extra parts that are included with the car like the front windshield trim,another grill(still has a little damage)and piece for the firewall(ac cover).Not much to do to get it on the road.Would make a nice GS clone!Please ask any questions that you have and I will do my best to answer it.I tried to list everything about car that I know of as honestly as possible.I do reserve the right to remove at any time due to being listed locally.Sold as is.Reserve is low so bid to win!Anyone with a e-bay score of 10 or less needs to contact me before bidding.Or your bid will be cancelled! Buyer will have to pay for shipping!Will assist in loading for transport.Car will need to be picked up within 7 days unless other arrangements are made with me.Thanks for your interst.

Buick Encore blitzes first-year sales predictions

Sat, 01 Mar 2014

With its first full year of sales in the bag, it's safe to say that Buick has a hit on its hands with the Encore. US buyers have snatched up 31,046 of the small, premium crossovers since the Encore went on sale in January of 2013, while 97,311 were sold globally (not counting its counterparts from Opel and Vauxhall).
While we liked the Encore when we first drove it, we'll admit, we weren't sure how the tiny CUV would do. In fact, the first thing Executive Editor Chris Paukert wrote about the Encore was, "We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out." But it's done well, and has been subject to heavy demand over the past year, blowing away the estimates of analysts, who, according to an August story from Automotive News, projected no more than 18,500 units would be sold in 2013.
"Right out of the gate, demand for the Encore was high," Tony DiSalle, vice president of Buick marketing said in a statement. "It accounted for most of the segment's growth last year and that's because it offers the right safety, technology and features in the right-sized vehicle for many customers."

GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected

Tue, 20 May 2014

General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:
1,339,355 - Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia models from the 2009 to 2014 model years; Saturn Outlook models from the 2009 to 2010 model years

Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
