1968 Buick Riviera Hardtop 2-door 7.0l, 360hp, Classic on 2040-cars
Steilacoom, Washington, United States
|
This car is beautiful for it's age. 1968 Buick Riviera with a little over 20,000 miles (no way to know for certain, but I assume it has turned at least once) as far as I can tell with the documentation I received. It has a 430-4, V8 "Big Block" engine that pushes 360hp. I have the stock rims and whitewall tires on hand if the future owner requests them, but opted to upgrade them to their current look. The car has been detailed extensively and the craftsmanship has to be seen in person to be truly appreciated. The paint is original, but has been repaired over the years. The body is free of rust holes and is in remarkable shape. The engine has a new radiator, new brake drums, all hoses flushed, new battery (starts every time), new shocks, new wheel cylinders, new hoses and spark plug wires, just to name a few. I am not interested in dealing with anyone not willing to travel to my location or willing to ensure full payment is made before shipping the car. Clean title in hand to a serious bidder. She runs strong with minor cosmetic issues only. The interior is in awesome condition. The 1968 Buick Riviera was luxury American Muscle in it's day.
Do your own research on these. There are ones online that are in an unrestored-state for under $10,000 from time-to-time, but with those, you would still have to put up the money to get the mechanical condition of the car up to par as cars this old are prone mechanical problems. The car is 46 years and this one has a fully functioning mechanical system that has been professionally inspected and repaired. If you want an American Muscle Car that gets heads to turn, then this is the car for you. Call Jeff if interested. **Also, I have all the repair manuals for all Buick models in 1968. I purchased this disc that has the 1968 Body By Fisher repair manual as well as the services manual. This is all a person would need to attain part numbers and to make minor to large fixes by yourself. This can save tons of money on repairs for these older cars and makes it a challenge to track down replacement parts; kind of like a treasure hunt! New parts: *New Tires w/ Rims *New Brake Drums (all 4) *Replaced Shocks (Rides like a muscle car, not a boat) *New Radiator (with new hoses) *Replaced Power Steering Pump *Newly painted hood (no dents or rust) *New Spark Plugs and Custom Wiring *New Kicker 6x9 speakers (rear), and dual 2.5 speakers (front) installed *(Radio is an older cassette deck but has an adapter for hooking to any MP3 device so the sound is good quality) *All leather interior has been treated *New interior carpet installed (I am an amateur, so this is not a professional job, it still looks good) *All chrome has been treated and polished *Engine growls like American Muscle should *New air filter *All interior vinyl has been treated *New headlight air hydraulic lines installed (These headlights flip up and into the body when not in use and are in perfect working order which is rare due to the age) *All wiring has been verified and all lights work properly *New starter and ignition system *New battery and new connections *The trunk has been stripped to bare metal and sealed |

Restyled 2014 Buick Regal adds AWD, Regal GS loses power
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Although the current Buick Regal hasn't even been on the market for very long, General Motors is using the New York Auto Show to unveil an updated version of the sedan in a similar fashion to what we saw yesterday with the 2014 LaCrosse. Like the LaCrosse, all 2014 Regal models will be getting a new look both for the exterior and interior design, but the big news takes place under the sedan's skin.
Except for the base Regal eAssist, the Regal Turbo and Regal GS will both be adding the benefit of all-wheel drive, but there is no word as to how much weight this system will add to each car's curb weight. The Regal Turbo's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder has received a decent bump in output from 220 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque to 259 hp and 295 lb-ft; unfortunately, these same figures are carried over to the Regal GS, which means that car drops from 270 hp. Both turbocharged models (Regal Turbo and Regal GS) will now be offered with all-wheel drive and the ability of sending more than 90 percent of the engine's torque to the rear wheels.
In terms of styling, the 2014 Regal gets similar styling changes found on the updated Enclave and LaCrosse, including reworked fascias, scalloped headlights and a full-width chrome strip spanning between the new LED taillights. Inside, key changes were made to the Regal's cabin technology, such as the instrument gauge cluster and infotainment system. On the Regal and Regal Turbo, a new 4.2-inch color display is available for drivers to see information for the vehicle, navigation and audio systems, but the Regal GS' cabin is slightly different with an eight-inch configurable gauge display. One of the best changes may be the overall reduction in buttons on the center stack, creating a cleaner-looking and easier-to-use cabin.
2013 Buick Encore
Mon, 10 Dec 2012City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.
GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold
Wed, 15 Oct 2014People 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.
