1965 Buick Riviera6.6l on 2040-cars
Minden, Nevada, United States
|
Up for “NO RESERVE” auction is my 1965 Buick Riviera with front end collision damage. My father purchased the car in 1989 and car located since new in Las Vegas and moved to northern Nevada where it has been garaged (even after collision). That means there is no rust. Car was originally bronze and was repainted to the color you see. I have all receipts since October 1989 validating mileage. Included with purchase are shop manuals, frame chart (will be needed on front frame) and several copies of Riviera Owners Assoc. magazines with good tips, etc. I was in the process of collecting necessary parts to rebuild the car. These include front grille, fan shroud, power steering pump, extra headlight(s), one outer fender and I can’t remember what else (over $1000). Parts that I’ve removed and are fine are included. Riviera emblems and trim pieces are fine. Windshield is cracked from the impact (I broadsided a vehicle at about 15MPH). I’ve kept all the crunched pieces. 401 Nailhead motor is numbers matching & not rebuilt and runs fine (was still running after collision with battery & power steering pump bashed). Had removed fuel tank & cleaned. Headliner is completely intact. Original upholstery, side panels, etc. will need replaced/restored. Tires have 400 miles on them on Ralley wheels. Power windows, seats and rare air-conditioner (blew warm air). Original headlight motors worked great. I really wanted to get this car back on the road but now need the garage space and don’t want to leave it out in the weather. Car is very rebuildable. My loss is your gain. Vehicle is located near Carson City, Nevada and is available for inspection. The car is being sold in “As-Is” condition with salvage title and buyer is responsible for pick-up and/or transport. If you have questions, please ask and thanks for looking. |

How to hack a Buick Regal with CarKnow
Thu, 08 Aug 2013If you own an Apple iPhone or Android device, perhaps you've been tempted to jailbreak or root it. This process gives you access to the the software's code, and can be used to make minor or drastic changes to its operating system. CarKnow, a company in Boston, is working applying a similar concept to the automobile.
Translogic recently took a look inside CarKnow to see just how it can tweak the computers inside a car and what sort of things can be done. As our transportation tech sister site explains, CarKnow basically created a digital duplicate of their Buick Regal in the cloud, while harvesting data generated to create custom apps and infiltrate the deepest function of their test car.
And before you freak out about people maliciously taking over your car, CarKnow's founder, Josh Siegel, stresses that it isn't quite so easy as driving up alongside someone. Take a look at the full video below to see just what it's like to jailbreak a car.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Opel to be shuttered in China, but will restart Buick production in Germany
Fri, 28 Mar 2014Opel, General Motors' troubled German brand continues its quest to reinvent itself and find solid profitability. In the course of that metamorphosis, the company has a bit of good news/bad news today. The good news is, it will once again begin screwing together Buick models for the American market. The bad news, though, is that it's being shut down in yet another country, China.
Let's start with the good news. The last vehicle Opel's Ruesselsheim factory built for the North American market was the early run of the then-new Regal, which is based heavily on the Opel Insignia. Production ran for just over two years, from 2009 to 2011, before moving production to Oshawa, Ontario.
Now, thanks to a 245-million-euro investment (just over $336 million), Opel will kick off production of a unspecified model for the US in the "second half of the decade," according to Automotive News. According to Opel, the new model will be announced before the end of 2014. You can begin your speculation about this new model down in Comments (we're wagering it'll be the Cascada convertible, sold here under the Buick umbrella).
