Up for sale is my '63 Riviera. It's factory Black with Saddle(tan) interior, has the numbers matching 401ci 325HP "Wildcat 445" engine, automatic, power windows, AC, nice factory Buick rally wheels w/good tires. It's been in the Seattle area since new and was garaged. It has no rust and a beautiful fresh basecoat/clearcoat paint job using the Dupont Chromabase system. The bumpers have been re-chromed and all the stainless has been polished. The engine and transmission are out of the car, the engine has been rebuilt with new pistons, crank, bearings, cam, heads, gaskets, water pump, hoses belts, etc. I'm detailing it now, it's almost ready to install. The Dynaflow transmission is from another '63 Riv and it's condition is unknown, a second trans is also included. The interior needs restoration, new front seat covers, carpet, etc. The rear seats are in good shape, they're just dusty and need to be cleaned up. The power windows all work, and I have both the windshield and back glass. The trunk is full of parts, all are neatly boxed up. Also included if wanted are an extra pair of doors, extra drive shaft, lots of extra trim, etc.
This is a very sharp car. It just needs someone with a little more time than I have to put it back together. I have a clear Washington title and am happy to assist in loading the car for transport. Brian 425-344-7213

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
How to hack a Buick Regal with CarKnow
Thu, 08 Aug 2013If you own an Apple iPhone or Android device, perhaps you've been tempted to jailbreak or root it. This process gives you access to the the software's code, and can be used to make minor or drastic changes to its operating system. CarKnow, a company in Boston, is working applying a similar concept to the automobile.
Translogic recently took a look inside CarKnow to see just how it can tweak the computers inside a car and what sort of things can be done. As our transportation tech sister site explains, CarKnow basically created a digital duplicate of their Buick Regal in the cloud, while harvesting data generated to create custom apps and infiltrate the deepest function of their test car.
And before you freak out about people maliciously taking over your car, CarKnow's founder, Josh Siegel, stresses that it isn't quite so easy as driving up alongside someone. Take a look at the full video below to see just what it's like to jailbreak a car.
Buick dusting off Grand National, GNX and T-Type nameplates
Mon, 26 Nov 2012Inside Line reports Buick is planning to bring back some of the more storied names from the company's past, including the Grand National, GNX and the T-Type. Those cars rose to prominence in the 1970s and '80s to become performance legends of their day.
The new models will reportedly make use of the rear-wheel drive platform that currently underpins the Cadillac ATS and all would arrive as sedans - according to an unnamed source familiar with the initiative. Odds are the T-Type and the Grand National would share a driveline, with honest money being on a new twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 as the engine of choice. Word has it the mill will be good for anywhere from 350 to 400 horsepower.
That leaves only the GNX. Inside Line seems to think that machine could get down the road with some help from the all-new GM LT1 small-block V8. The engineers behind the ATS platform have already told us the engine bay is large enough for to accommodate the big eight pot, and since GM is most certainly working on an ATS-V, a slightly less powerful, less luxurious Buick iteration makes some kind of sense. We can't wait to see these things in the light of day.
