FOR SALE: BEAUTIFUL 1965 BUICK RIVIERA WITH CORRECT DUAL QUADS.

2 OWNER CAR. I PURCHASED IT IN 1997 FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNERS WIFE WITH 24k MILES.

BODY: REPAINTED IN 2004. THE CAR WAS STRIPPED TO BARE METAL. ALL PANELS & GLASS WERE REMOVED. VERY MINOR BODY WORK WAS NEEDED (DINGS & MINOR SURFACE RUST). PPG BASE COAT CLEAR COAT WAS USED. WET SANDED & BUFFED. THE BODY IS LASER STRAIGHT! THE PAINT STILL LOOKS AMAZING!

INTERIOR: THE INTERIOR SHOWS WELL. BUT IS AGED. SEATS ARE IN VERY GOOD SHAPE. CARPET IS FADED & WORN. COULD USE REPLACING. HEADLINER WAS REPLACE BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL STYLE. WOODGRAIN INSERTS ARE SHOWING AGE. ALL IN ALL THE INTERIOR IS CLEAN & VERY PRESENTABLE BUT SHOWING AGE.

ENGINE & TRANS: ENGINE RUNS VERY STRONG! NO KNOCKING, TICKING OR SMOKING. IT DOES NOT BURN ANY OIL. BUT HAS DEVELOPED A MINOR OIL PAN SEEPAGE. IT'S NOT BAD. BUT I THOUGHT I SHOULD MENTION IT. I ADDED THE DUAL QUAD SET UP IN 2008. I WAS PLANNING ON CLONING IT AS A GRAN SPORT. BUT NEVER GOT AROUND TO IT. THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION/DISTRIBUTOR WAS ALSO ADDED AT THAT TIME. TRANS WAS REBUILT WITH A SHIFT KIT IN 2009. IT CHIRPS THE TIRES NICELY INTO 2ND GEAR WITH LITTLE EFFORT. IT DRIVES & BRAKES NICELY.

THE FLOORS & FRAME ARE VERY SOLID. THERE IS SOME MINOR SURFACE RUST THAT CAN EASILY BE CLEANED & SPRAYED OVER. NEW SHOCKS & COIL SPRINGS ON THE REAR.

ALL MOLDINGS & CHROME ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. NOT SHOW QUALITY. BUT VERY NICE DRIVER QUALITY.

ISSUES:

HEADLAMP MOTOR IS WEAK. WILL NEED A REBUILD ($250).

GAS GAUGE IS NOT WORKING. NEEDS SENDING UNIT($65).

A/C & HEATER BLOWER FAN STOPPED WORKING LAST SPRING.

A/C LAST WORKED IN 2010. IT HAS NOT BEEN CONVERTED TO R-134.

POWER SEAT IS SLUGGISH.

RIGHT REAR WINDOW IS VERY SLOW.

SCRATCH ON RIGHT FENDER (SEEN IN PICS).

CHIP TOUCHED UP ON DECK LID (SEEN IN PIC).

I MAY BE NIT PICKING WITH THIS STUFF. BUT I DON'T WANT ANY SURPRISES FOR THE BUYER.

THESE CARS ARE STEADILY INCREASING IN VALUE. NADA GUIDES VALUE FOR THIS ONE RANGES BETWEEN $20,360 & $42,910. SO I BELIEVE IT'S PRICED QUITE FAIRLY. I'VE SEEN OTHERS NOT AS NICE SELL FOR MORE. PLUS MINE HAS THE VERY DESIRABLE DUAL QUADS.

THIS IS A GREAT CAR THAT I ABSOLUTELY HATE TO SELL. BUT AT 45 I DECIDED TO GET MARRIED AGAIN. WE'VE BOUGHT A NEW HOUSE, I HAVE TOO MANY CARS, NOT ENOUGH SPACE & I NEED THE CASH.

MORE PHOTOS ARE AVAILABLE TO SERIOUS BUYERS.

PLEASE ASK ALL QUESTIONS & HAVE FUNDS AVAILABLE BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER. ALL REASONABLE/SERIOUS OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED.

THE CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY. SO I MAY END THE LISTING EARLY.

THANK YOU FOR VIEWING MY LISTING.

2022 Buick Enclave reportedly getting Black Accent package

Mon, Jul 26 2021

Buick's updated Enclave crossover will go on sale later in 2021 with a revised design and a longer list of standard features. When it lands, it will reportedly be offered with a dealer-installed blacked-out appearance package. Enthusiast website GM Authority learned the optional Black Accent package will consist of black mesh inserts in the grille and black trim on the hatch; these bits are bright in the standard 2022 Enclave (pictured). They'll be installed by the selling dealer, meaning the Enclave won't leave the factory with the Black Accent package, and the bundle has been assigned Regular Production Option (RPO) code PDM; every General Motors option gets an RPO code. Not all trim levels will be eligible to receive the Black Accent package. It'll be available on the Premium and Essence trim, according to the same source, but it will not be compatible with the range-topping Avenir trim. Additionally, buyers won't be able to tick the Black Accent box if they've also selected the Essence trim's Sport Touring Edition package or the Luxury Package that can be fitted to the Premium and Essence trim levels. Pricing information isn't available yet, though the package will reportedly not be available at launch. Buick hasn't commented on the report, and it hasn't announced plans to make a Black Accent package available on the Enclave. If the rumor is accurate, more information and official photos will be released in the coming months. Related video: 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir revealed

Buick boss shuts down idea of importing Opel Adam

Wed, Mar 30 2016

Anyone hoping for Buick to sell small city cars in America, you're not going to like this story. Buick boss Duncan Aldred has effectively ruled out importing the stylish Opel Adam city car for US drivers. Yep, this is us being bummed. Admittedly, the business case for Adam is not as strong as it used to be. Gas is cheap and consumers have fallen back in love with the idea of high-riding crossovers instead of efficient cars. That's why Buick sold twice as many teeny, tiny Encore CUVs in 2015 as it did its smallest car, the Verano. With that in mind, slotting in another car, let alone one below the Verano, isn't a great idea. Of course, Aldred didn't come out and say as much, even though he campaigned for a US-market Adam in the past. "I very much did feel when I came over that that could really help accelerate the Buick brand story," the executive told Automotive News at last week's New York Auto Show. "I don't see that as much. Whether the market shifted or the fashion nature of those cars has changed, I don't know. But I wouldn't be looking for a small, B-segment car today." That, friends, is a real bummer. Adding a car like the Adam, even in a small, captive-import capacity would add a real dose of fun to Buick showrooms and (we're guessing) would bring in younger foot traffic. Related Video:
