Restored about 10 years ago, over $25k in receipts. New paint, top, interior including leather inserts in the seats, as it was from the factory. Almost all chrome redone. All mechanical work that was needed was done- things like suspension, steering, exhaust. Engine and trans are original and running great. 401 Nailhead, Turbohydramatic trans. Fully tuned up last year, always garaged since restoration. Won its class in some local car shows, was featured in the Washington Times "Out of the Past" column. Much attention paid to details- clock works, AM radio converted so it has FM. P/W, P/Seat, Tilt wheel, A/C (compressor engages but system has a refrig leak), P/Antenna. Trunk completely redone using correct material. Engine compartment body was painted when car was repainted, the rest is original but cleaned and in very nice original condition. Even has the "Wildcat Power" sticker on the air cleaner housing. Comes with all records of repairs done during the restoration, and photos showing the work that was done. I will also throw in a shop manual.

This car is quite stunning in person, and draws a crowd wherever it goes. Correct bronze mist metallic looks super sharp, the chrome glistens, the glass is free from scratches or pitting. All gauges work, and I added water temp and oil pressure gauges to keep a more accurate eye on things.

I have taken this car on some 200+ mile roundtrips without a hitch. Yes, she has a good appetite for fuel, but loves the open road and is the fastest full sized car I have ever owned. The 401 Nailhead is a legendary Buick motor that puts out 325 hp and 445 lb/feet of torque. It makes maximum torque at pretty low rpms, which is why these engines were popular in drag racing cars back in the 1960s. This is also the first year that Buick had the Hydramatic trans- what I think is a nice improvement from the somewhat lazy Dynaflow.

There are comparably lots of '64 Rivieras around, but this car is rare. I have seen a few '64 Electras at car shows or in the Hershey car corral, but they have always been sedans. The Sport Coupe, with its standard leather buckets and center console, is far more unique.

So channel your inner Don Draper- with Mad Men just starting a new season, this is a fine example of American car building at its best during the Mad Men era.

Amazing car!!

Buick Enclave spy photos reveal curvy, minimal interior

Tue, Oct 17 2023

We got a pretty good look at the next-generation Buick Enclave last month via some spy photos, and this month we get a peek inside. While the exterior takes after the Wildcat concept, the interior follows in the path set by the recently redesigned and launched Encore GX and Envista. The focal point of the new Enclave's interior is the curved screen panel encompassing both the instrumentation and the infotainment. It has the rounded, inverted trapezoid look of the little Buicks, but from the gap in the screen covers, it looks like the screens will fill up the housing much better on those base crossovers. Just below the infotainment side of the screen array is a minimalist set of climate control buttons (piano key style) and a pair of air vents. It's difficult to tell much else of the dash due to the coverings. Based on the little Buicks, the screen probably sits on a small alcove with the rest of the dash being smoother and wrapping around behind the screen. The steering wheel isn't shared with the smaller Buicks, nor does it appear to be that similar to what we've seen in either the new Chevy Traverse or the GMC Acadia. It has a sleek, simple three-spoke design with a small circular center horn and airbag section. We also noticed the black plastic strip at the top of the wheel that likely houses the lighting and infrared sensors that go along with GM's Super Cruise hands-free highway driving assist. We're expecting the Enclave to be revealed soon, possibly early next year, with deliveries coming soon after. This is because this prototype looks pretty much production-ready, and we've already seen its cousins from Chevy and GMC. It will likely get the same turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder making 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque with an eight-speed automatic and either front- or all-wheel drive. Related video:

2022 Buick Enclave revealed with refreshed styling, more standard features

Thu, Jun 3 2021

Buick gave us a sneak peak at the 2022 Enclave back in January, but it officially pulled the sheet back Wednesday to reveal the extent of its updated styling and detail a few updates to its feature content, including a new suite of standard safety tech. We can now better see the various exterior styling touch-ups, including a larger, more pronounced grille, new head- and taillights, and more angularly sculpted front and rear bumpers. The Avenir's exterior treatment was also updated to incorporate the new elements. The changes aren't too dramatic, but Buick did enough to make the 2022 visually distinguishable from previous years. The new standard safety suite is Buick's Driver Confidence Plus package. It includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane keeping assist with lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, forward collision warning, rear park assist, rear cross-traffic alert and automatic high-beams. Buick's midsize crossover is still powered by a standard 310-horsepower V6 with optional all-wheel drive. The range-topping Avenir model includes an adaptive suspension and unique styling elements. Despite our previous expectations, the Enclave's cabin didn't really get an upgrade apart from the standard safety items listed above. Buick did not include pricing information in Wednesday's announcement, so you can look forward to yet another update before the 2022 Enclave goes on sale later this year.

GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
