Bought new in Lancaster, PA and lived its whole life in eastern Pennsylvania.  Despite being an east coast car, the body is in fantastic condition.  Driver's quarter had collision repair by the second owner that was never finished, but there is NO body filler or rust repair anywhere else on the entire car.  Engine, which has a service replacement block, is non-functional and unknown if it can be rebuilt.  May require replacement.  1969 GS400 engine (RR code and disassembled) available if buyer is interested.  In addition, a 455 swap would be a direct replacement with parts readily available aftermarket.  Carburetor is non-original.  To my knowledge, all other components on the car are original, numbers matching or when replaced the original parts were retained and go with the new owner.  

This is a low-optioned, non-AC car.  Retains the original BB transmission and 3.64 posi rear end.  Interior shows staining from its long hibernation, but the vinyl is still pliable and could be cleaned and used as is.  Overall, an excellent start to a project and a good way to get into high performance Buicks without breaking the bank.  

Car does not run and would need to be trailered to its new home.  Many pictures available on request.  Option to end auction early if car sells locally.  Assistance with shipping possible within approximately 300 miles of Brandenburg, KY.  I bought the car with the intention of restoration, but another project stole the spotlight and I need the space in my shop.  I encourage personal inspections and would be happy to show the car to any interested buyers.  

Reserve is set at the price I paid this past autumn.  Good luck.

New Buick Verano testing in Germany

Thu, 29 May 2014

A refresh to Buick's popular Verano sedan appears to be nigh, thanks to these spy photos that show the tweaked four-door testing in Germany.
As with the current Verano, the refreshed model will have a great deal in common with its European platform-mates, the Vauxhall/Opel Astra. Each car rides on General Motors's Delta II platform. Unlike the current car, though, the refreshed model's styling could lean more heavily towards its European roots, if these photos are any indication.
Despite its commonality with the Astra Sedan, the Verano has featured its own unique styling since arriving in the US back in 2011 as a 2012 model, with distinct fascias at both the front and back, as wells its own headlight and taillight designs. The two cars were still rebadged vehicles, but it was more subtle than it will be in 2015, when the refreshed Verano arrives. Astra-like elements are expected to dominate, particularly in regards to the headlights and taillights. That said, trademark Buick styling features will remain, like the waterfall grille. Really, then, the 2016 Verano won't be unlike the Regal - a rebadged Vauxhall/Opel Insignia, aside from a few very small styling details.

GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy

Mon, 05 May 2014

With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.
