For sale is a very original 1969 Buick Gran Sport. This is a very nice driver that looks, drives, and shows very well. The car is painted black and has a red pinstripe down the side along with a vinyl top. The paint is not perfect, it has a few little chips and light scratches here and there, but nothing major. The body of the car is in great shape with no rust and no bad body work. The floorboards and trunk pans are also solid with no rust. Most of the chrome on the car is original with the exception of new 350 hood emblems, new GS quarter panel emblems, new GS grill emblem, new GS trunk emblem, and new drip rail molding. The wheels are the optional chrome Buick "Super Sport" wheels that have new B.F. Goodrich redline radials mounted on them. The sidewalls of the tires have been shaved giving the sidewall a nice smooth finish. The combination of the chrome Buick wheels and the redline radials make for a very nice addition to the car. The interior of the car is original and is in good shape. It has the optional rallye steering wheel and the optional floor console with the horseshoe shifter. The front and rear seats have no snags or tears and the carpet and door panels are in good shape. The dash has the original radio and original heater/AC controls. The headliner in the car needs a little attention at the sail panels. It is nothing major, just a matter of tightening it up a little. Under the hood is the original Wildcat 350-4 that has recently rebuilt. It has been bored .030 over, has a T/A 212 cam, new Accell ignition coil, and a Pertronix electronic distributor conversion kit. The cam specs are 218/230 duration, .459/.470 lift, and a 112 lobe center. The motor has 9.5:1 compression, the stock intake, stock exhaust with turbo mufflers, stock heads with hardened seats, and a rebuilt and jetted Q-Jet carb. The transmission is the original Turbo 350 that has a fresh complete rebuild. It has a 2200-2400 stall converter with a mild shift kit. It has an open differential with 3.23 gears. This is a very nice, driver quality car. It is a fun car to drive to cruise-ins and gets a lot of attention where ever I take it. The car is being sold as is and the buyer is responsible for pick up. I can email more pictures of the car if interested. My home phone is 540-943-4234 and cell is 540-241-9937.

2025 Buick Enclave revealed with new looks, technology

Tue, Apr 9 2024

The 2025 Buick Enclave has been revealed, and as expected it combines Buick's current corporate styling with the new-generation three-row SUV platform shared with the Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia. It also gets plenty of standard features and technology, along with the first Buick implementation of Super Cruise. The design of the Enclave is much more boxy and upright than the extra-curvy model that precedes it. Even the wheel arches have been squared-up. It's coupled with the shark-nose front fascia taken from the Wildcat concept that has adorned every other vehicle in Buick's lineup. The whole thing is slightly larger than before, too, though Buick didn't specify by how much. And as is the case with most Buicks, there's a base Preferred model, as well as Sport Touring (ST) and Avenir trims that receive appearance tweaks in addition to different feature sets. The ST adopts black trim, including in the grille, whereas the Avenir uses bright metal trim and body color wheel arches, plus larger 22-inch wheels (Preferred and ST have 20-inch wheels). The interior is the biggest upgrade by far, though. Immediately obvious is the standard 30-inch combination instrument and infotainment display. It has a curvy, inverted trapezoid shape that has a slight retro-futurism vibe. It sits atop a low, wide and gently curved dashboard, one with a small set of physical short-cut buttons above the center air vents. A "floating" center console rises to meet the dash, though stops short of connecting to it. Adjustable ambient lighting is standard in here, along with power, heated seats, wireless device charging, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus a 12-speaker Bose sound system. Avenir upgrades the sound system to 16 speakers, adds a panoramic sunroof, front seat ventilation and massage function, rear seat heating and a head-up display. Mechanically, the Enclave is basically the same as the Traverse and Acadia. It uses the new platform and also gets the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder as the sole engine option. In the Enclave, it makes 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque, the same as the GMC, and a tad more than the Chevy. An eight-speed automatic is the only transmission offering, though both front- and all-wheel drive are available. Towing capacity is again mirrored at 5,000 pounds, and Super Cruise is available, making Enclave the first Buick with the hands-free driving assist system.

NFL QB Cam Newton and supermodel Miranda Kerr star in Buick's Super Bowl ad

Wed, Feb 1 2017

Buick's Super Bowl LI ad is another demonstration that its cars aren't frumpy anymore. The ad opens with parents watching their children play football, with one of the dads, we'll call him "Dad No. 1," shouting encouraging words to his son. In the background, a bright red Buick Cascada pulls up, and another dad, "Dad No. 2," points it out. Dad 1 doesn't believe him, and says, "If that's a Buick, then my kid's Cam Newton." All of sudden, his son transmogrifies into Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. As expected, he quickly dominates the game, with some amusing results. At the end, when a Buick Encore shows up, the referee inadvertently turns himself into supermodel Miranda Kerr, based on apparent disbelief over what constitutes a Buick. You can see all of the shenanigans in the video above. Plus, if you'd like to see what goes into making a Super Bowl commercial, Buick produced a short video with Newton and Kerr showing what happens behind the scenes. You can check it out below.

GM to offer 2 years free maintance on most 2014 models

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

A day after Ford announced it was scaling back the complimentary maintenance program for its Lincoln brand, General Motors has gone in the completely opposite direction, offering most of its 2014 lineup with free maintenance. Since 2011, Cadillac models have all come with a four-year/50,000-mile complimentary maintenance program, but Chevrolet, Buick and GMC vehicles will now come standard with free maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles for the 2014 model year.
The program will give vehicle owners and lessees free oil changes, tire rotations and 27-point inspections following the recommended maintenance schedule laid out in each vehicle's owner's manual. We contacted GM to see which vehicles were eligible for the program, and a spokesperson got back to us with the following comment:
"All 2014 models are eligible, it's just that the included services vary by model, e.g., Spark EV would not need oil changes, Corvettes don't recommend tire rotations."
