1972 BUICK LESABRE CUSTOM COUPE

Hello fullsize GM car fans, up for sale is a 1972 Buick Lesabre custom coupe. This Buick has a really great running buick 350 with four barrel carb and auto transmission (Turbo 350). Great looking car with decent interior. Added Buick wheels and will give an extra one or two if I can find it along with the deal. Also I am including a mint green dash to replace the cracked on in the Buick. This Lesabre has never been cut up interior and exterior wise. Pretty much all stock down to the wheels. If your looking for an affordable cruiser for the family or maybe trying to find the one to replace another one you or your family had years ago, this would be a great purchase.

As mentioned, the engine runs strong and healthy, just flip of the ignition and she fires up, has a holley 4 barrel carb now, though have the original Q-jet 4 barrel in the trunk. Body wise the Lesabre is pretty clean with a few minor rust spots (see photos) and a mild crease after the driver's door panel. The passenger side rear floor pan has minor rust through though the rest of the floors and trunk are clean! The vinyl top was pretty badly torn so I removed it and wanted to see if there was any rust hiding, the rust areas are in the lh and rh lower rear glass areas (see photos) no other rust on the roof at all, solid! I made the mistake to prime the roof with a terrible quality black primer on a hot day and the result was not my proudest moment to say the least. Also I was surprised to find filler on the rear roof seams where the rear pillars meet the roof when I was wire wheeling what was left of the old vinyl roof off. I did research on this and you can do the same, it seams that all vinyl roof cars back in the day, at least from GM used filler for all vinyl roof cars because the vinyl hid all the blemishes. The non vinyl roof cars used lead and extra attention was spent on them.

The Buick needs some minor electrical work, driver's side tail lamp does not light up, and dash lights, wipers and heater switch don't come on, I haven't checked the fuses yet (I'll leave the minor work to the new owner part of the car bonding thing). The master cylinder needs to be replaced though still works, though change it if you are going to drive it. The rest of the fluids and filters should be changed as well and tires look good though are not the greatest tread. The front bumper is bent up a somewhat (see photos) and the exhaust hangs low (let the transport company that will pick the Buick up know this).

With some TLC this Buick Lesabre would be a great car show cruiser and a special car in a sea of Impalas and Chevelles. You don't see too many 1971-73 Big Buicks anymore and this would also be a great hot rod with a 455 and turbo 400 with GS treatment or the affordable alternative to the same year Impalas and Caprices.

Please only bid if you are serious, all negative and 0 bidders contact me before bidding (I will cancel your bids if you don't). I will require a $300 non refundable deposit via pay pal 48 hrs after auction ends. The rest of the balance to be in 7 days after auction ends. I bank with chase and had great luck with wire transfers to my account. You just deposit the funds (I have to make sure they clear if a legal bank cashiers check before the Buick and title goes). Or you can send a authorized bank check (no scammers) and would have to wait to clear before the Buick & title leaves. The new owner is 100% responsible for picking up the Buick and shipping and the Buick can stay no longer than 3 weeks after transaction is made successfully. Once the Buick leaves on the truck I will certify mail the title via US mail and only the new owner can sign for it upon arrival. The Buick is sold AS IS and WHERE IS, thanks for reading and if you have any questions or need any other photographs just let me know. Happy bidding!

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk

Mon, 06 May 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.
