1978 Buick Regal 2 Door V8 on 2040-cars
Oak Creek, Wisconsin, United States
|
1978 Buick Regal two door coupe. Car is a factory V8 automatic with the 305 Chevy motor. Car suns and drives good. It does have a small exhaust tick on the right side (heat riser?) that goes away when its warmed up. It has brand new full dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers, sounds great. I dont know exact mileage, just had to put a number in for ebay. The body is very solid. Buick ralleye wheels with fair white letter tires. Car is white, used to be a baby blue. Paint is average, not show by any means. There is a hole in the drivers floor starting. the rest of the floor pans are solid, the trunk pan is excellent and the frame is clean...even at the rear bumper mounts! No rust that I see anywhere other than the hole in the floor. The interior is blue. Has a power seat but it is broken. I will include a pair of black high back bucket seats with the car, not sure the original application they came with. It has a maroon steering column with tile and an Oldsmobile steering wheel. Headliner is homeade and the rest of the interior is dirty and getting worn. Dash has no cracks, just the speaker grill on top. Has a blaupunkt cd player that runs a single speaker on the floor that works fine. (not mounted properly so its a bit loose and its not wired to hold radio station memory.) Glass is all good, power windows and locks work. The taillights are no longer black as shown in the pictures and there are no rear bumper fillers on the car. It is an old car, therefore it is sold as is and has no warranty or guarantee. Buyer is responsible to pick up or have shipped or I can deliver for 1.50 a loaded mile, please ask first. Payment will be cash on pickup only.
I may consider partial trades up or down. 1977 or 1978 trans am, 1973 grand am or GTO, Hurst Olds or 442 or ?? |

Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar
Wed, 03 Sep 2014There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
Next Buick Regal to inherit styling cues from Opel Monza concept
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Ever look at a concept car from a foreign auto marque like Opel and wonder what relevance it will have to you as an American consumer? Well, we'll tell you: at least as far as the Opel Monza concept goes, it could mean a lot.
Speaking with Automotive News at the Paris Motor Show, Opel chief Karl-Thomas Neumann said, "You will see the Monza when you see the next Insignia." And the Insignia, we needn't point out, is essentially ported over to American showrooms as the Buick Regal.
The relationship between the Regal and Insignia only stands to grow closer as Opel design chief Mark Adams has also been charged with tightening the bonds between the two automakers positioned on opposite shores of the Atlantic. Adams also intends to imbue the next Insignia with more "premium brand values" in order to "add polish to the brand." Which in turn means that the Regal will be designed to look more upscale, too.
