I am the second owner of this vehicle - original owner was a family friend.<><>Vehicle has been parked and not driven since 2000 with current DMV NON-OP.<><>Fresh fuel and fuilds have been maintained and I ran the engine bi-monthly.<><>The engine does/and always has run smooth - no abnormal or unusual noises.<><>With the exception of an occasional dead battery, this vehicle has never failed to start for me.<><>While road operated, oil was changed every 3K.<><> ALL ORIGINAL BODY, ENGINE, INTERIOR, PAINT, GLASS, ETC..<><>Other than oil, plugs, filters, brake pads, etc.... I believe the only parts I replaced (years ago) were the shocks and master cylinder. The engine is a GM350V8 with a 4 barrel carburetor.<><><><><>DISCLOSURE: KNOWN ISSUES: 1) There are areas (patches) of rust around the back windshield and back side glass. CAUSE: Over the years the vinyl top had ripped allowing water to be trapped at the base of the roof. This vehicle has only and always been in California - there is no lower body rust. 2) The valve cover gaskets are dry and cracked so when the engine runs for 5 to10 minutes, smoke can be seen coming off the exhaust mainfolds. No major leaks from lower end/oil pan area but there are some in the transmission area. Back when I drove it, I did have to add transmission fluid once a month or so to keep the level up and avoid slippage.<><> Engine never burned any noticable amount of oil (i.e.- didn't blow smoke). 3) Paint is completely faded and interior shows wear on driver's seat and driver's floor board, otherwise overall fair to decent condition for it age. 4) Some trim and molding missing or damaged and much of the rubber/grommets are worn and/or torn. 5) For reasons unknown (?) the trunk lock recently stopped working, but the full size spare was out when this occurred. I chose not to force it open in the case that it can be repaired or opened from inside.<><><><><> POSITIVES: "ALL ORIGINAL - NO ACCIDENTS - RUNNING/LOW MILEAGE ENGINE (under 68K)"<><><><><> My goal was to someday restore it, but I no longer have the time, space, money, and/or energy. This car was always very pleasurable to drive. It was solidly built, weighing in at aprx.5700 lbs.. With a fair amount of TLC this vehicle can again be made road worthy.<><><><><> PAYMENT: Within 2 DAYS of winning bid I require a $500 DEPOSIT to be made through PayPal and the balance to be paid in CASH, IN PERSON, at the time buyer takes possession of the vehicle. Possession of vehicle is to be taken within than 10 DAYS of cleared deposit. BUYER TO ARRANGE FOR TRANSPORT. Extra time may be allotted to facilitate buyer's transport arrangements as long as PAYMENT HAS BEEN MADE IN FULL. I have not tried to mask or hide any of this vehicle's issues, i.e.- primering, sanding, faded paint areas and/or puttying rusted areas, because I felt it best to let the buyer see it as it currently and physically is. Conversely, the white patches/areas above the back side windows are actually some kind of glue or putty the manufacturer used to hold down the vinyl top.<><> I will gladly answer any and all questions, please ask before you bid. I can also supply more detailed and specific area photos at inquirers request.

Thank you.

Pre-owned bargain alert: Buick Regal

Wed, Feb 3 2016

For the past couple of years, Buick has been very aggressive in promoting short-term low-mileage leasing. The plan was to get people in the door to experience the new Buick. Once they realized Buicks are now sleek and full of Euro Chic, people might want to buy one. It's debatable if that plan worked, but one thing is for sure: There's a massive amount of low-mileage Buick Regals out there. The price of Regals is all over the map due to lease returns and dealers aggressively discounting 2015 models to get rid of them. But at the $17,500–20,000 range there are a good number of 2013 to 2015 Regals with under 15k miles for sale. The Regal might come with 2.0L Turbo or 2.4L Hybrid. The Hybrid is a bit slow; stick with the Turbo and drive with the traction control off. They all come moderately equipped with leather, heated seats, alloy wheels, and dual-zone climate control. If you have a little more cash to spend, go for the 2012/2013 Regal GS, which is based on the Opel Insignia OPC. The Regal GS comes with 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft from a turbo engine and a HiPerStrut suspension to reduce torque steer. They all come standard with Brembo brakes, navigation, sunroof, and premium sound system, in automatic or manual. Just make sure you budget money in your savings to replace the front tires. Trust me on this. You can purchase a Camry or Accord with some equipment for under $20,000 with a bit more miles and years than the Regal. But ultimately the Regal feels more premium, drives better, and is less boring. Make the right choice and buy something unique.Related Video:

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad

European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.
