After ten years of seeing this gorgeous Buick just parked in my garage, my wife finally laid down the law. This is going to be a tough decision, because I love this car and don't really want to sell it. It is a 72,000 documented mile factory A/C car that is not only a head turner every where we take it, but really wonderful to drive as well. In the past ten years, I have not put even 200 miles on the car. It has been used for local errands and parades only and spends all of its time locked in my garage. Everything in the car works, including the original factory AM Radio. The AC is in need of a charge, but the compressor does come on when you turn on the AC switch. It has factory stage 2 wheels with red line tires and the motor is a 350 cubic inch with 2 barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. When I bought the car, it came with a ton of receipts (see photos), including DMV registration going back to 1983. All of the receipts are in the name of the gentleman who I bought the car from. The car appears to have had one repaint many years ago and it still has a beautiful deep shine. The interior is all original and in extremely nice condition. The convertible top and rear window are in wonderful shape as well. This is a car that you can get in and drive anywhere and I guarantee you, every place you take it, you will get compliments from everyone who looks at it. We live in a small resort community here in northern California and every year we get a call from the Chamber of Commerce and local Lions Club asking to use the Buick in their upcoming parades.

I believe that cars like this 69 Buick, will do nothing but go up in value as the years go by. If you have been thinking about getting a 60's era car and you want one that you can drive and enjoy, rather than spend thousands repairing, this is the one you should be bidding on. This is a rust free, 72000 mile beauty with a clean clear California Title and registration paid through 2014. 

I ask that you please DO NOT bid on this car, if you don't have funds available to pay for it. I am located in northern California about an hour and twenty minutes from San Francisco. If you would like to come see the Buick before you bid, just send me an email, or give me a phone call and I will be glad to make arrangements with you to see the car. I can be reached at (925) 437-4701. There are no disappointments when you come to pick this beauty up. I guarantee that you will love the car when you see it.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 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.

GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.

Buick Envision crossover to premiere in China

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Buick currently offers two crossovers: the compact Encore and the extra-large Enclave, leaving plenty of room to slot a mid-size crossover in between. And that's just what Buick is planning on doing. In China, anyway.
Previewed in the teaser above, Buick's upcoming new crossover is cloaked and nestled in between its aforementioned stablemates-to-be. Set to be unveiled in China sometime later this year, the model has been confirmed to wear the name Envision - at least in that market. That's the name which the concept version wore three years ago, but we're still waiting on word over whether that name will carry over to the US version or whether we should expect something different like Anthem. But we have to admit that Envision fits better in the brand's crossover naming scheme.
Shanghai GM isn't saying much about the Envision in the press release below, aside from it having "dynamic and assertive styling" backed by all-wheel drive and stop/start ignition. The last time Buick offered a mid-size crossover in North America was with the Pontiac Aztek-based Rendezvous that was discontinued seven years ago.
