Rust Free Southern Car, T-tops, Power Locks, Windows And Driver's Seat on 2040-cars
Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
Up for sale is a 1987 Buick Grand National. It has 141k miles but is in very good condition given the mileage. It has factory T-Tops and power locks and windows. It is in good, rust free condition but has small scratches and paint chips. The car spent most of its life in Florida, then North Carolina, which is where I bought it from. It looks good, but I would consider it to be a 5-10 footer. I planned on getting it painted to bring it to "show quality" condition but given my current priorities, I won't be able to do that for a long time, which is why I'm selling it. I will miss it dearly. It is in good mechanical condition and has been well maintained. It runs perfectly, is a comfortable cruiser and is fast too! I had the air conditioning serviced/charged last year and it worked great, but after sitting, it's not cooling again, so it must have a slow leak. There are a host of new or newer performance upgrades (listed below) that were chosen to improve the performance without affecting normal drivability in any way. I've included some photos, I can take more if you'd like. I will include everything below plus a big box of stock parts. -----I will be adding more photos in the next day or two----- Body / Exterior Stock exterior with T-Tops Rear X braces Tinted windows Engine / Transmission Stock 3.8 liter V6 engine 60 lb/hr fuel injectors TurboTweak chip Comp Cams 980 valve springs RJC Power Plate H&R PartsNstuff motor mounts Precision Stock Location Intercooler Walbro high pressure in-tank fuel pump with rewire kit Accufab rising rate fuel pressure regulator Hallman ES manual boost controller AlkyControl progressive alcohol injection system using a Coolingmist VC-II Controller LS1 Mass Airflow Sensor & MAF Translator K&N air filter with 3" intake pipe Precision TE-44 Turbocharger GBodyParts.com 3" downpipe. 2.5" Hooker cat-back exhaust system Custom flanged off-road pipe Rebuilt transmission with shift improver kit PTC 10 inch 2800rpm lockup torque converter B&M Supercooler transmission cooler Metco driveshaft loop Stock, rebuilt posi-traction rear differential New F-body radiator, 160 degree thermostat radiator hoses and G-Body parts silicone coolant hoses Many other small maintenance items like brakes, spark plugs, fuel filter, new vacuum lines, valve cover gaskets, etc. Interior ScanMaster 2.1 Innovate wideband O2 sensor Coolingmist VC-II digital progressive alcohol injection controller/boost gauge Wheels/Tires Suspension 16x8 American Racing "GNX style" black mesh/chrome wheels Kuhmo ECSTA Tires KYB shocks 2" drop front spindles UMI Performance upper and lower rear control arms Also have stock GN wheels with new street tires in the front and new Mickey Thompson Drag Radials in the rear (see pictures) Thanks for viewing and let me know if you have any questions.

Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China
Mon, 03 Mar 2014General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.
Next Buick Regal coming in 2017, could be imported from Germany
Sun, 03 Aug 2014The Buick Regal is based on the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, a pair of sedans from General Motors' European and British outfits. In fact, over 46,000 Regals from model years 2010 and 2011 were screwed together on the same lines as the Insignia twins, before GM's Oshawa, Ontario factory took over production fully. Considering this closeness, rumors that claim the next-generation Regal - due for 2017 - could move back to Europe aren't terribly surprising. Here's why, according to Automotive News.
Oshawa is home to three other vehicles, aside from the Regal - the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala rental queen and the Cadillac XTS. We already know next-gen Camaro production is headed to Lansing, MI, and that the fleet-only Impala will (finally!) die in 2016. As for the XTS, as AN explains it, sales are so slow that GM will either kill it or just shuffle its production volume elsewhere.
Taken along with the fact that Unifor, the Canadian labor union repping workers at the Oshawa factory, claim GM hasn't made any guarantees about future production at the nearly 60-year-old factory, it seems fairly clear that the Regal's current factory is going to be put out to pasture.
GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy
Mon, 05 May 2014With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
