BODY
As you can see in the pictures the condition of this vehicle is needing some TLC on the body. This car needs body work but is overall a very solid vehicle. It is missing or has cracked plastic body fillers all the way around the car. The 1/3rd leather top needs replacing. Some paint chipping, dent on roof. but as you can see in the picture the paint still shines. Headlights fuse box needs replacement because headlights do not turn on. car is fully functional other then the head lights. New transmission, two new front tires, i have all hubcaps still. new tail pipes seperated to dual exhaust but not tru dual just a splited muffler, may have exhaust leak, gas tank in great shape no soft spots. clear title. chrome pitting and has some rust, as well as front bumper offset a bit. overall solid drivable vehicle. Starts every single time first turn. motor in great shape, a very easy carburated car to work on. Air ride adjustable with air compressor.
Interior
As you can see in the pictures the interior is in pretty good shape for the years. Seam teers on leather and driver seat completly worn out the leather, pictures due the justice. the rear seat is in excellent condition as well as the carpets are in great shape for the year. it was an everyday car and for that i rate the interior overall pretty good for a car over 25years old that was a daily driver. all power every thing , with premium speakers and alpine stereo aftermarket, all sound works great. The headlight system needs some work maybe a fuse? i dont know but i cant get them on.
History
The reason this car leather top and driver side so rough is it was next to a garage that had a garage fire. which caused the damage, of the paint and roof, this car was not in the fire but close enough for the high heat to reach it. i have owned it now for almost ten years, so i know alot about the vehicles running condition so feel free to ask any questions. Like i said it was a daily driver. does have a viper alarm systen installed. Little rust solid car check engine light on.
Milage
I dont know exact milage. it has rolled over and at one point stopped counting until i got it fixed.
Shipping
I will not provide shipping for this car, that is all on the buyer, local pickup only, no warranties and being sold as is with no returns.
Please note this car is over 25years old and in need of TLC but is a solid vehicle being sold as is.

2013 Opel Cascada
Tue, 24 Sep 2013The Future Buick Verano Convertible?
I wasn't wearing a pedometer while in Germany covering the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, but it's safe to say I walked more than a few miles between press conferences, shooting cars and trekking back to the media center on the first day alone. For this reason, it didn't take much convincing from General Motors for me to duck out of the Messe a day early and drive some of its latest Opel models. No, this didn't include the all-new Country Tourer, but I was able to drive the Opel Mokka (our Buick Encore), the Opel Adam and the Opel Cascada.
I focused most of my driving time behind the wheel of the Cascada, which went on sale in Europe earlier this year, since rumors are swirling that a Buick version of this convertible "could happen soon." Buick hasn't had a convertible since the Reatta, and GM has been lacking a non-performance, budget-minded convertible since the Pontiac brand - and its G6 - was dropped, so adding the Cascada to Buick showrooms could further help the reemerging brand compete in the near-luxury segment. Although the weather was too chilly (and occasionally rainy) to enjoy the Cascada with its top down for very long, I was able to clock a fair bit of drive time behind the wheel on roads ranging from the autobahn to tight roads in small, quaint villages.
eBay Find Of The Day: 1946 Tucker Torpedo Prototype II hides a secret Riviera
Thu, 10 Jul 2014The 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?
2014 Buick LaCrosse steps up to the big leagues with plenty of luxury
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Following the introduction of the updated 2014 Buick LaCrosse and Regal, the oldest vehicle in Buick's lineup will be the Verano, which was just introduced last year. Having such a fresh product mix bodes well for Buick as it tries to create a new image in the US, and after checking out the amount of luxury being stuffed into the new LaCrosse for 2014, GM's awkwardly positioned brand may finally have the ability to stand out.
Granted, the model unveiled was the all-new, top-of-the-line Ultra Luxury Interior Package, but this package brings top-notch leather and soft suede covering everything above the beltline as well as real ash wood accent trim throughout the cabin. While there was no mention of price, we don't expect this model to come cheap in terms of what we expect from Buick, although it will likely be competitively priced with similarly equipped rivals like the Acura TL or Lexus ES. Adding even more to the LaCrosse's interior, dual eight-inch displays make up the gauge cluster and center stack, and the number of buttons on the center stack have been greatly reduced, creating a cleaner look for the instrument panel.
Another big change is the next-generation of Buick's IntelliLink infotainment system that brings with it all of the recent enhancements of the Cadillac CUE and Chevrolet MyLink systems. Differentiating itself from other GM infotainment systems, the new Buick IntelliLink stands out by allowing users to customize the apps they can add and not just being limited to what GM sees fit.
