I have a rare but custom 59 Buick Lesabre 2 door coupe up for sale with clean title and current registration in Northern CA. The body has had a 71 Pontiac frame and running gear fitted underneath, Pontiac 400 big block with dual exhaust and 2 barrel carb getting 16MPG, 400 auto trans. The entire body of the car was taken apart to be soda blasted before paint was applied the antenna was smoothed, door handles no poppers or cylinoids, mirrors, windshield wipers and the rear pan under the rear bumper was shortened and welded in with a custom fabricated rear bumper bracket. The whole entire body of the car was disassembled and everything removed stainless trim, mouldings, front clip, doors, trunk lid, hood, interior and glass were removed before paint and then the soda blasting began. The interior of the car was removed and the floor pan was sealed and painted black. Before the paint was applied all the steel was sealed and primed and then a PPG triple out white base coat and PPG clear coat was added, the top section of the car is PPG dark tropical teal with PPG clear as well. After the completion of the paint the car was reassembled with new fasteners, weather stripping and new front and rear glass. The hood hinges have been plated as well as the hood latch assembly, the doors and trunk lid assembly have been zinc plated as well. The stainless trim has been restraightened and polished. All the exterior chrome has been replated with a new custom grille and then a set of new tail lenses, parking lenses and head lights. The car sits super low with cut coils and no it is not bagged but has a small helper compressor mounted in the trunk (disconnected) for bags and rides really nice. To finish it off it had a set of Appliance wires with 3" Coker white walls. Moving to the interior of the car it had all new foam and vinyl added. The door panels were cut with new fiber board and all metal interior components were soda blasted and sealed before paint and interior layed. It has a Sony CD player, two 500 watt amps, with two kicker ten inch subs, 2 6x9 speakers. New gauges were installed but it does not have a speedometer it was on back order when interior was installed. The trunk compartment has had a custom trunk kit built where the side compartments open for storage and battery access. The car starts right up and was built for warm California weather with the windows down. The heater works but is missing a cable and the ac needs to be recharged. I never drove this car in the rain or cold so the above items mentioned were not important to me, I had it built for me. If you have any questions feel free to ask and this car is a show stopper and gathers major conversations at any show or while out driving. Buyer to pay for all shipping charges and $500.00 dollar deposit through Pay pal required 48 hours after winning bid. Remainder of Payment maybe cashiers check or wire transfer accepted. But car will not be shipped or released until funds are cleared by bank.

Buick celebrates 110 years by naming most significant model of each decade
Sun, 23 Jun 2013In May of 1903, Buick began work on its first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, the first example of which was sold to a doctor in Flint, Michigan. That first sale was appropriate since later on, Buick became known as a "doctor's car." The Model B is the first of 11 cars chosen by Buick to highlight each decade of the company's 110-year history.
The 1916 D-45 Touring with a six-cylinder engine was Buick's highest seller that year, and helped push overall sales past six figures for the first time, making Buick the top-selling automotive brand. In 1931, Series 50 got an eight-cylinder engine, which helped the company survive the Great Depression. The 1936 Century was the first Buick that could hit 100 miles per hour, the 1949 Roadmaster had a supporting role in Rain Man, the 1953 Skylark had Italian wire wheels and the owner's name engraved on its steering wheel.
Then we have the iconic 1963 Riviera, the V6-powered 1975 Regal, and in 1987, the legendary GNX. With a turbocharged, intercooled V6 pumping out 276-horsepower it could hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. In 1999 Buick built the first car in China, the Century, and that country remains the brand's largest market.
GM issues stop-sale for 3 SUVs over incorrect MPG rating
Fri, May 13 2016This week, GM sent a memo to Chevy, GMC, and Buick dealers to tell them to stop selling three SUVS. The 2016 Chevy Traverse, the GMC Acadia, and the Buick Enclave all have EPA window stickers that show higher fuel economy ratings than the vehicles actually have. Unlike other recent – and very public – fuel economy ratings problems from VW and Mitsubishi, it doesn't seem like GM did anything wrong with the testing for these vehicles, it just misprinted the labels. New labels are being printed and should arrive at dealerships this weekend and early next week. After that, the SUVs will be able to be sold and delivered again. The official fuel economy rating for the three SUVs are all the same. The correct numbers for the all-wheel drive versions are 17 miles per gallon combined, 15 city, and 22 highway. The stickers say the SUVs get 17/24/19. The front-wheel driver models were also incorrectly labeled, and the total number of affected vehicles is 59,823. In the memo, GM said the problem was caused by an "inadvertent error," Automotive News says. GM is working with the EPA to solve the issue. We have asked GM for a comment on the mistake and will update this post if we hear back. Related Gallery 2013 GMC Acadia View 16 Photos News Source: Automotive News – sub. req.
