Bought new in Lancaster, PA and lived its whole life in eastern Pennsylvania. Despite being an east coast car, the body is in fantastic condition. Driver's quarter had collision repair by the second owner that was never finished, but there is NO body filler or rust repair anywhere else on the entire car. Engine, which has a service replacement block, is non-functional and unknown if it can be rebuilt. May require replacement. 1969 GS400 engine (RR code and disassembled) available if buyer is interested. In addition, a 455 swap would be a direct replacement with parts readily available aftermarket. Carburetor is non-original. To my knowledge, all other components on the car are original, numbers matching or when replaced the original parts were retained and go with the new owner.

This is a low-optioned, non-AC car. Retains the original BB transmission and 3.64 posi rear end. Interior shows staining from its long hibernation, but the vinyl is still pliable and could be cleaned and used as is. Overall, an excellent start to a project and a good way to get into high performance Buicks without breaking the bank.

Car does not run and would need to be trailered to its new home. Many pictures available on request. Option to end auction early if car sells locally. Assistance with shipping possible within approximately 300 miles of Brandenburg, KY. I bought the car with the intention of restoration, but another project stole the spotlight and I need the space in my shop. I encourage personal inspections and would be happy to show the car to any interested buyers.

Reserve is set at the price I paid this past autumn. Good luck.

Next Opel Insignia to adopt sleeker looks

Fri, Aug 21 2015

The very first set of spy photos of the next-generation Opel Insignia have dropped, giving us a look at the more svelte, aggressive, and stylish look of the popular sedan. As a reminder, the Insignia is sold here in the United States as the Buick Regal. There's only so much we can discern from these photos, thanks to the very heavy camouflage. But we can get a look at the new Audi A7-like roofline, which our spies citing similarities to the Opel Monza concept car from the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. The Monza link fits with our previous reports, which claimed the gullwinged wagon would serve as a prime source of inspiration for both the Insignia and US-market Regal. Aside from the significantly redesigned sheetmetal, Opel is also increasing the size of its flagship sedan, adding nearly four inches between the axles. According to our spies, the goal is to build a vehicle comparable in size to the Skoda Superb, a roughly Volkswagen Passat-sized sedan based on the VW Group's MQB platform. What's most interesting for US customers, though, is the body style shown here. Like the aforementioned A7, the next Insignia will be offered as a five-door model, rather than a traditional sedan. The five-door hatch would later be joined by a traditional wagon. It's unclear whether the US market Buick will take a similar route, or whether General Motors will demand a four-door variant exclusive to North America. Check out the spy photos above, and keep an eye open for more on the next Insignia/Regal. Don't plan on seeing it at an auto show any time soon, though. It's not slated to debut until the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show.

Opel to be shuttered in China, but will restart Buick production in Germany

Fri, 28 Mar 2014

Opel, General Motors' troubled German brand continues its quest to reinvent itself and find solid profitability. In the course of that metamorphosis, the company has a bit of good news/bad news today. The good news is, it will once again begin screwing together Buick models for the American market. The bad news, though, is that it's being shut down in yet another country, China.
Let's start with the good news. The last vehicle Opel's Ruesselsheim factory built for the North American market was the early run of the then-new Regal, which is based heavily on the Opel Insignia. Production ran for just over two years, from 2009 to 2011, before moving production to Oshawa, Ontario.
Now, thanks to a 245-million-euro investment (just over $336 million), Opel will kick off production of a unspecified model for the US in the "second half of the decade," according to Automotive News. According to Opel, the new model will be announced before the end of 2014. You can begin your speculation about this new model down in Comments (we're wagering it'll be the Cascada convertible, sold here under the Buick umbrella).
