1972 BUICK GS Stage ONE Convertible Replica

Car was converted from its original 1972 Buick Skylark Custom. Mostly all GS originality was carefully added including new GS spec springs and front DISC Brakes. Also upgraded heavy duty Hotchkis Sway Bars, front and rear. Installed 355 POSI rear end as well.

Car is an attention magnet everywhere. Constant horns beeping and thumbs up. When I first got it I was pulled over by the local Police twice because the cops wanted a close up look.

Top stays down from May-Nov as she never leaves the garage on days it may rain.

She runs strong but I never raced or beat it.

 

EXTERIOR

Fresh re-paint 3 years ago. Many chrome trim pieces replaced and rear bumper was re-chromed 3 years ago. Front bumper still looks good. I would rate it a 8--9 on a scale of 10 with 10 being trailer queen. Wheels are 17 inch American Racing, Chrome Torque Thrust.

INTERIOR

Bucket Seats and door panels are a pearl white with matching boot cover. All gauges work. I added under dash temp, volt, oil pressure gauge and replaced broken clock with a Tach. Custom leather stitched on wheel cover gives driver a nice feel. Has Retro Radio with plug in for I Pod. New carpets and GS Vinyl floor Mats.

All new moldings/gaskets done in 2012.

GLASS

All original and in good shape. Scratch on passenger side of windshield caused by wiper abrasion. Back window is glass.

UNDERSIDE

Very good condition with no rust. Has new FLOWMASTER CUSTOM Exhaust, with factory look turn down tips.

 

TRANSMISSION

 3 speed auto with shift kit. Works perfectly with easy 2nd gear chirp on acceleration.

REAR

355 POSI

TIRES

Plenty of tread on RIKEN 17 inch Radials

ENGINE

455 Buick with functional hood scoops for Ram-Air. I replaced the old Carter Carb with a new Holley 750. Has electronic ignition and new wires. New Battery last year and new short ratio steering box. Factory AC was serviced in 2012 and works great. Also replaced heater core and added aluminum radiator.

Just recently replaced all Valve Seals and springs.

Engine is very strong and is an absolute Torque monster. This drive train used to beat HEMIS back in the day. Check on YouTube for videos of match ups.

CONCLUSION

As a newly restored Replica, this car is a beautiful summer driver! She cleans up like new and draws smiles and stares everywhere. Not a garage queen but has been treated as such by this owner.

2022 Buick Enclave Review | More style and features doesn't mean better

Wed, Feb 23 2022

The Buick Enclave has been updated for 2022, and it delivers some added style and additional features, it also doesn't do anything to lift Buick's three-row SUV beyond average for the segment. For the most part, the 2022 Buick Enclave is the same as it was when this generation launched for the 2018 model year. On the plus side, it has a powerful V6 and a smooth transmission. The cabin is incredibly spacious, and additional standard safety features are certainly welcome. The base price is also quite low for three-row premium SUVs at just under $44,000. Where this biggest of Buicks falls short is in the finer details. The engine isn't well isolated, allowing coarseness into the cabin. The cabin also doesn't rise to the level of Lincoln, Acura, Infiniti and Volvo -- brands that aren't exactly the upper crust of luxury, but certainly beyond Ford, Chevy or Honda. For instance, while its controls are easy-to-use, the buttons and knobs feel low rent and are obviously shared with cheaper GM models. There isn't anything that makes it particularly stand out from the competition, either. So while the Enclave is spacious, affordable and decent enough to drive, we think there are nicer options wearing luxury badges as well as vehicles like the Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade that surpass it in their uppermost trim levels.  Interior & Technology | Passenger & Cargo Space | Performance & Fuel Economy What it's like to drive | Pricing & Features | Crash Ratings & Safety Features What's new for 2022? The Enclave gets a variety of small updates mainly consisting of styling changes and feature additions. The exterior features new front and rear designs with new LED lighting front and rear. New wheel designs and exterior colors are also available. Inside, it's nearly identical to last year's model except for a new steering wheel, new push-button shifter and updated seat designs. A variety of other features have been added either as standard or as options such as a wireless phone charger, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a power sunshade for the rear sunroof, a front camera, head-up display, rear-pedestrian alert, adaptive cruise control, rear camera mirror and surround view camera. Furthermore, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, rear cross-traffic alert and automatic headlights are now standard. What are the Enclave interior and in-car technology like?

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
