free CA built Skylark Convertible… I have added photos with
carpets removed, to show the floor pans as amazing condition, showing very solid with not even surface
rust. Everywhere I looked I have
seen no evidence of rust as in CA and WA do not salt roads, and we do get amazing
condition survivors like this one. You can see the factory checkered mat glued down in the trunk. Note how solid and shiny metal under the hood, around the engine & under the trunk! There is a spare rally wheel and trunk accessories and the factory manual is still in the glove-box of this rare condition survivor. Receipts show car recently tuned with new wires,
plugs, points, cap, gas filter, new synthetic blend oil & Fram filter. You
can also see the engine has been well maintained, refreshed with recent water pump, new hoses, belts and a new battery. We just added fluid to the convertible top system, and power motor works great. The new carpet was just installed and seat belts installed since photos were taken. The new boot just came out of the box, so the included trim clips still need to be added. The sporty 225-V6 engines
are noted for good MPG, reliability, power & torque. Because these are based upon the V8 block, change overs are easy, along with Edelbrock aluminum intake
manifolds, headers, carbs & dual exhaust systems to really make this a muscle type
car if desired. ESTATE SALE:
I am helping the owner clear an estate and move this classic vintage muscle car on to a new
home. As such, I do not have full history, but being a classic car collector I

Buick Verano to go turbo-only for 2014?
Sat, 22 Dec 2012If VIN tags recently posted online prove accurate, the 2014 Buick Verano may be getting a new base engine. Presently the Verano makes use of GM's 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine in non-turbo trim; 2014 documentation appears to indicate that GM's entry-level luxury compact will instead feature a 1.6-liter turbocharged mill.
If this is the same engine seen in Europe, GM Inside News suggests it may offer 192 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque - useful improvements over the larger naturally aspirated mill's 180 hp and 171 lb-ft. More importantly, the downsized engine would likely improve on the Verano's current fuel mileage estimates of 21 city and 31 highway.
We like the Verano in both of its current iterations, but the 1.6 turbo engine sounds like a worthwhile upgrade if this reports turns out to be true. Plus, if more performance is your bag, baby, there's always the Verano's optional 2.0 turbo engine with an impressive 250 horsepower and 260 lb-ft from just 2.0 liters of displacement.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
Buick asks design students 'What could a Buick sedan look like in 2030?'
Mon, 09 Jun 2014When you think of daring concept cars or emotional design-student projects, Buick probably isn't the first brand that comes to mind. It's not for lack of concepts; when General Motors ran down 11 concept-car highlights from Buick's 110-year history, three of them are from the past 15 years, with other experiments in that same timeframe like the Black Hawk, Centieme and Cielo left unmentioned.
But the company still thinks about them even if we don't. It ran a contest for students at Detroit's College for Creative Studies to create a Buick for the year 2030 that would incorporate future materials and transportation needs, and nanotechnology.
Best exterior design went to Sam Kenny for his Neo Classical Buick, Justin Salmon took honors for innovative material use, like having exposed algae on the bodyshell to generate energy, and Namsuk Lee nabbed best overall concept and best interior for his Buick Vision Sedan. You can read more about the design challenge and winners in the press release, and hear students talk about what went into the work in the video below.
