                                                              1976 BUICK LESABRE 4 DOOR CUSTOM

Most everyone that loves old cars has a fantasy of finding that nice little lady or gentleman that has that old car hidden away in  the garage & you are able to get the car & bring it out into the light of day & find that it has been so well taken care of that almost all the power options still work & it runs out very nice. I think we have found an older car in that realm. This is a wonderful 38 year old classic car from the days when cars were Big with Big Motors & could cruise down the highway like you were sitting in your living room. This Buick LeSabre is in unbelievable shape for a Garage Find. Someone bought drove & took care of this car for since new. The car has been driven under 1600 miles in the last 22 years. The last service date & mileage is on the Amco Service slip in the holder on the dashboard. As you try each option on this car it is unbelievable that most everything still works. Things like cold air, am/fm stereo radio w/power antenna, cruise control, power windows, turn signals, head lights, Rear Window Defroster, Windshield Wipers w/mist button, Power Seat, Adjustable Speed Warning Buzzer, power trunk release, & believe it or not, the silly CLOCK STILL WORKS! It was getting downright crazy trying to find something that did not work on this car, finally after checking everything we could think of, including all the lights, one of our neighbors called out when we were backing the car out of the driveway & informed us that one of the back up lights was out. Whew! Finally. 

          Car condition w/#1 being perfect Show Car, & #6 being good just for parts car,  This car would be a solid 3. Interior would be a 2, paint is a 4, engine & drive train is a solid 3, no Rust noticed. Drives like a number 2 car. Should be pretty easy to get to local car show condition. Wonderful Daily Driver.

     I don't want anyone to think this LeSabre is a  perfect show car, because it is not, there are parking dings, some small paint chips, & at least one fender looks to have some paint work done, the paint is old but still looks good, could at least use a good buff & wax. The right front fender has a scratch about the size of a basketball on it. Should be a easy fix for any local body shop. The chrome & trim work is very good for this age car,  maybe could use a good polish. The paint is good but tired. We just washed the car & did not wax or buff the car to get more accurate condition pictures. If the car was buffed & waxed with a few touch ups, it would look absolutely great. We tried to keep the price affordable & also let the new owner have a few things to do to get the best look. Anyone would have a real hard time finding a 1976 model car with all these features that still work & in this kind of condition. The mileage on the odometer reads 34,608, & was stated to us as being original, which might be hard to believe until you see the condition of the interior & drive this car. Then it is not that hard to believe at all. We cannot Guarantee the mileage, but believe most anyone will be happy when they see the condition & drive this car. Our family had a 1971 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser & Pontiac Parisian back when I was a youngster, this wonderful Buick drives just like them, & both those cars were bought new. Some people might rather have the 455 motor, but we really like the 350 4 barrel motor this one has. It has all the power you will ever need & gets much better gas mileage.

             The recent items repaired or replaced on this classic include new 4 Barrel Carb, replaced radiator, new plugs, plug wires, Dist. Cap, & Rotor, new oil & transmission fluid incl/new filters, new tires, & new rear brakes w/Front Brakes in great shape. Turn the key & go cruising tonight. I could keep writing about this car on & on, but I have tried to describe it as it is. We keep shaking our heads & smiling to be able to find a car like this so many years after it was made. The car is an honest 38 year old car from America's Bicentennial Year & easy on the eyes & pocketbook. WOW, what a car.

          This LeSabre is being sold AS IS, with an very LOW RESERVE & a very affordable BUY IT NOW PRICE! For those that remember these cars, or if they brings back Fond Memories, this is an easy way to get into the classic/collector car hobby for not much money. The collector car insurance is unbelievably affordable, & antique car tags are available in a lot of states. Collector Car insurance for as low as $139-$169 per year, including liability, collision, & comp, depending on agreed upon value. That is enough reason to buy an old car right there. Thanks for looking & wish we had a Dozen of these to offer. Great Car-Great Price-Great Condition! We have over 50 pictures available if someone wants to see more detail. Email us thru ebay with any questions.

Winning bidder required to pay $500 within 48 hours after auction ends & pay the balance by the 7 th day from auction end.

eBay Find Of The Day: 1946 Tucker Torpedo Prototype II hides a secret Riviera

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

The Tucker Torpedo is one of the great what-if stories of automotive history. Preston Tucker hoped to revolutionize the industry with a car unlike any other on the road at the time. However, due to a variety of problems, he only managed build 51 vehicles before closing shop. Over time, they have become highly sought-after; In 2012, one sold for $2.65 million at auction.
That brings us to this Tucker "replica" that you see above because it might be one of the ugliest monstrosities ever put together. However, we might extend some leniency to the creator, as the vehicle isn't actually trying to replicate the classic look of the 1948 Tucker Torpedo. Instead, it is attempting to reproduce an earlier prototype from 1946 that actually features that weird, trident nose. According to the seller, his uncle built the car as a labor of love and supposedly used actual plans from Tucker as inspiration.
Underneath all of the crazy changes is a 1971 Buick Riviera powered by a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) Buick V8. Some of the replica's odder modifications include the front fenders that turn with the wheels and the fin running down the back. All three headlights work, but the one in the middle is only for the high beams. Oddly, the small hinged sections on the roof are meant to open to avoid hitting your head when getting in or out. Maybe the seller's uncle was a very tall guy?

2015 Buick Verano gets styling tweak, loses 6-speed manual

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Well, all good things must come to an end. For 2015, the Buick Verano's experiment with a manual transmission will cease, as the American manufacturer has announced it will discontinue the 6MT in the turbocharged version of its compact sedan. According to Buick, the take rate on the Verano Turbo 6MT was (unsurprisingly) low, leading to its discontinuation.
That's not the only bit of news for the Verano, though. After a few years on the market, Buick has seen fit to refresh the popular sedan. The visual changes aren't huge, really, with subtle tweaks to the headlights and taillights. We'd bargain that the average passer-by wouldn't notice a difference between the two.
The main aesthetic change is a new appearance package, available on the mid-range Convenience and Leather option groups. Unimaginatively called just that - Appearance Package - it offers up a new paint color, Desert Dusk Metallic, as well as a grille treatment and a rear spoiler. The new package is, however, limited to naturally aspirated models.

GM SUV window switch recall urges owners to park vehicles outside

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

It's not unusual for there to be a lag between an automaker announcing a recall and the official documentation showing up on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. So it's no surprise that a recent GM campaign took about a month to appear in its official capacity. However, there appears to be some big differences between the two reports with potential safety implications.
In late June, GM announced that it needed to recall 181,984 examples of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Buick Rainier, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7x from the 2005-2007 model years, plus the 2006 Chevy Trailblazer EXT and 2006 GMC Envoy XL. The new documents paint a slightly different picture with 184,611 needing repaired and different model years listed.
The reason for the fix is still the same, though. It's possible for fluid to contact the master power window switch module in the driver's door, which can corrode the part. Eventually this could cause a short circuit, leaving the buttons inoperable and potentially leading to a fire. But the new NHTSA documents add an important note: "A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made."
