Here in this listing we have a 1972 Buick Skylark Convertible GS Clone. It has had a lot of work done so far, over $12k invested so far. But does need a few things to finish it up. I will start by saying what is done. It has a brand new paint job. It looks great. It's not a 10 point show paint job but a nice clean straight job. The body has no rust or rot. The body was pretty solid to start. It has all it original panels in place from what I can tell. The floors are good with no rust or holes. Looks like the rear floor was replaced at some point and looks great. The trunk is good with no rust or rot. The frame is solid with no signs of repairs ever done. It has a real metal GS hood. No fiberglass. The interior is all new. New seats front and back. It looks like the back seat is a little bit different design than the front but the colors match up. The carpet is new. All the panels are new. The dash is perfect. It has bucket seat with a console. The top is brand new and it has a new glass window. The top works up and down fine with no leaks. It just needs a new switch on the dash. It has new brakes all around. Power disk up front. All new. Drums in the rear. All hardware is new. The motor is a freshly rebuilt big block 455. The Trans is a turbo 350. So now for the things it needs. It needs and exhaust. It has open headers right now. Sounds mean. I would re-chrome the bumpers as the shine is a little dull. No rust or dents. Just dull. The car needs some odds and ends but all the expensive stuff is done. I have a lot invested in this car and the reserve is a lot lower than what I have in it. I know you NEVER get back what you put in. My loss. Call me at 347-622-3985 for any questions.
Please come check the car out in person or send someone to do. There are companies out there that do so cheap. Use them!!! This way you are happy with your purchase when you get it. No unhappy people wanted. If you want any pics just ask but don't wait for the last day because I will not be able to get them in time. The reserve is set low compared to what's in the car. You want to make an offer feel free to do so anytime. The worst I say is no. Good luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet

Wed, Oct 7 2015

Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.

First 2013 Buick Encore TV ad features... dinosaurs

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

The whole "SUVs as dinosaurs" trope has become something of a threadbare cliché among auto writers, but that doesn't mean the wider world of consumers has caught on to the Jurassic nature of our line of thinking. That's what General Motors appears to be betting on, at least. Just check out Buick's first television spot for its 2013 Encore, the tiny crossover that is pushing the Tri-Shield into territories unknown while looking to outrun the brand's reputation as a refuge for elderly clientele.
Set to air this weekend on ESPN during the NCAA college basketball tournament, the ad plays up the Encore's maneuverability and surprising interior space by setting the baby Buick amongst a herd of lumbering CG dinosaurs created by Tippett Studio, the folks behind Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Ted, and the Twilight series of films.
We can't help but snigger a little - while the Encore is indeed surprisingly roomy, nimble, and composed, our first drive found it to be glacially slow, too... not unlike a certain prehistoric race of animals. Check out the commercial below and judge for yourself.

GM follows Ford and Honda in skipping SEMA

Fri, May 20 2022

The list of automakers skipping SEMA has become longer. First reported by Muscle Cars and Trucks, and confirmed to us by a company representative, General Motors will not have an official presence at the aftermarket show. It joins Ford and Honda in leaving the show. It will be a large hole in the show, with the GM brands typically filling a significant swath of available show space in one of the main halls. GM hasn't provided much explanation for the move, either. The GM representative provided Autoblog with the same statement that Muscle Cars and Trucks got: "GM has made the decision not to participate in the 2022 SEMA Show. The SEMA show has always inspired us, and accessories and performance parts remain an important part of our business." We also asked if we would see any sort of announcements around the time of the show — Ford said it has plans to share some things around that time — however, the GM representative said that the company has no immediate plans for announcements. Certainly things could change between now and the November show, though. SEMA had previously noted that other exhibitors would help fill in some of the space vacated by these major OEMs. Another OEM, Volkswagen, is returning to the show after an absence, which will also help with the display deficit.
