1971 Buick Riviera Boattail on 2040-cars
Aberdeen, Mississippi, United States
|
I am selling my 1971 Buick Riviera with 111,724 original miles on it. It has the original 455 with 4 barrel carburetor, has lots of power and runs very well, never presented me with a problem or failed to start. Has AC (currently not working, has no belt and needs charge I'm sure), power windows (all of which function), power steering and disk brakes up front. The only issue with the engine is the carburetor, the linkage on the passenger side of the carb is missing (can be seen in pictures) which causes the 4 barrel not to open properly. It makes for a good cruiser as is but if you punch it, it will stutter since it's not opening up. It does run great aside from this issue, a new carb or a kit would fix this. Has a new dual exhaust ran and sounds awesome. The body is in good shape with very little rust. There is a little on the top side of the door jam, a spot along the lip of the hood, and a little in the lip in the trunk under the rear window but it isn't rusted through, just surface rust all of which can be seen in the pictures. I believe this is due to a leak in the rear window, bad seal or something along those lines, just haven't had the opportunity to deal with it and since I keep it in the carport it hasn't really been a problem. The drivers side rear floor pan has been patched and is strong but not a professional job has can be seen if you crawl under the car. The interior is in decent shape, the rear seats need cleaning up and there are 4 cracks in the dash, I took a picture of the worst one. Also, the headliner has been removed. The bucket seats that are in it now are not original, but I do have the original bench seat that came in the car. It is complete but could use recovering as the passenger side seams are splitting and there's a large tear in the driver's side. Speaking of the driver's side, the door handle is broken on that door. It can still be easily opened from the outside but a replacement handle would be ideal. Has $1,000 worth of American Racing wheels which give it a good stance. Tires are fair but could use replacing, more so up front. All in all this is a good solid car, a great driver and with a little work it could be in excellent shape. I drove this car to a wedding recently and put over 400 miles on it in a weekend, it's the only classic I own and will leave home in without my toolbox. Comes with some original pamphlets and also some service records of the car that were kept. I have tried to mention everything about the car and believe I have done so, but feel free to ask any questions. I can be reached via message through eBay or on my cell at 662-315-1337, text or call. Thanks for looking, Thomas.

Next-gen LaCrosse, Cascada convertible coming to Buick showrooms in 2016
Wed, 23 Jul 2014It's difficult to overstate how significant the post-bankruptcy years have been for General Motors' Buick brand. Arguably the most improved American automaker, Buick has rounded out its range with an excellent compact in the Verano, a well-balanced midsizer in the Regal and a segment-busting mini-CUV, with the Encore.
Seeking to keep that momentum going, the next several years will see the brand address a trio of its most obvious issues. First and foremost will be a replacement for the aging LaCrosse, a vehicle whose only bit of attention since its 2009 debut was a very light refresh in 2013.
According to Automotive News, we should expect the next-generation LaCrosse to arrive late next year or early in 2016, as a 2016 model. AN expects big design changes, as Buick attempts to further the LaCrosse from its popular platform-mate, the Chevrolet Impala. The changes won't be so radical, though, as to do away with its front-drive architecture, as the latest version of the Epsilon platform will underpin the next LaCrosse. The 3.6-liter V6 is likely to carry on, although a smaller, budget-minded offering is also extremely likely (we'll eat our hat if it's not the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the Regal, Verano and Cadillac CTS et al.).
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
