Thank you for checking out my classic car, the Buick Limited Edition! I purchased this vehicle new nearly 35 years ago and have driven it on occasion since. It is garage-stored and pampered. The complete repair record is available, although the car has been basically problem-free over the years. It has a clean, well maintained interior and has also been entirely smoke-free.
Seats are crushed velour upholstery. The passenger seat (which reclines) and rear seats have been seldom used so both have like-new upholstery. No rips, stains, or holes.
The car was undercoated with frequent touch-up applications for minimal surface rust, although there is rear frame rust. Doors and trunk lid have some small paint chips. The lower trim behind the front tires has some small dents from the mechanic's hoist. There is a passenger-side windshield crack. Dash is in great shape, no cracks or rips. The hood has lost its pneumatic lift. The car has a spare tire and jack. It hasn't been driven since the brakes went out last year. It has one mismatched hubcap, a loose tailpipe, a small hole in the trunk's tire well the size of a half-dollar, and broken plastic edging on the seat belt clip. It also needs a taillight cover, re-tacking of the ceiling upholstery, and perhaps front springs. One tire is showing wear. Front shocks were installed new prior to storage and I have a replacement bumper for the rear ready to go.
The car has been stored the past 1 1/2 years. Prior to that it ran and performed well on the road with a great engine by GM, said to be perhaps the best they ever built. The interior and exterior are both in excellent condition, especially considering the vehicle's age. It would make a classic parade and show vehicle, or it has many top-notch items as a parts car.
I am happy to answer any and all questions. If you would like more pictures, I can email them to you. I look forward to talking with you.

Buick celebrates 110 years by naming most significant model of each decade
Sun, 23 Jun 2013In May of 1903, Buick began work on its first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, the first example of which was sold to a doctor in Flint, Michigan. That first sale was appropriate since later on, Buick became known as a "doctor's car." The Model B is the first of 11 cars chosen by Buick to highlight each decade of the company's 110-year history.
The 1916 D-45 Touring with a six-cylinder engine was Buick's highest seller that year, and helped push overall sales past six figures for the first time, making Buick the top-selling automotive brand. In 1931, Series 50 got an eight-cylinder engine, which helped the company survive the Great Depression. The 1936 Century was the first Buick that could hit 100 miles per hour, the 1949 Roadmaster had a supporting role in Rain Man, the 1953 Skylark had Italian wire wheels and the owner's name engraved on its steering wheel.
Then we have the iconic 1963 Riviera, the V6-powered 1975 Regal, and in 1987, the legendary GNX. With a turbocharged, intercooled V6 pumping out 276-horsepower it could hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. In 1999 Buick built the first car in China, the Century, and that country remains the brand's largest market.
38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk
Mon, 06 May 2013General 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.
J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience
Thu, 29 Nov 2012JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
