Hi. I will start by saying that I am listing this 59 buick wagon in order to explore what options I may have. I am from Australia and have been trying to get a 59 wagon here for a while. It has taken a while to get things organised over there and in the meantime circumstances change. I want this car but I am interested to see what money I could get for it or if someone had a running driving original car of interest that they may want to trade. Some of you may remember I sold an Invicta wagon earlier this year which I regret and I know this is my last chance to own a 59 wagon but like I said circumstances change. OK, now that that's out of the way, the car itself.

This is a solid car with only a rust hole in the rear floorpan. The hood has been bent because of stiff hinges but I have another one, the fender is a bit dented but I have another one. I have another front bumper, grille, lights and left and right NOS fender chrome strips. The motor was seized due to a stuck piston and has been taken out (original available) and I have a good running 401 out of a 59 coming. I have good working power steering pumps(x2) and a working brake master cylinder. Spare front brakes/drums/bearings and rear brakes, spare working heater box, complete dash, tail lights. I have a complete set of tinted glass including windshield, tailgate, quarters, doors and also have an extra pair of tinted quarters and one NOS clear quarter to replace the cracked one on the car. This quarter glass is 59-60 buick wagon only. If I keep the car my plan was to just get it driving and leave the exterior like it is until I could afford to paint it. It doesn't have any rust on the exterior. The interior is complete but will need redoing, once again I was going to put covers on the seats and tidy it up a little. The spare glass can be bought separately but if you want the car you have to take everything. So you would be paying for more than the car itself. You can sell the glass later. 

That's all I can think of for now but like I said I am exploring options so if I don't get a decent offer or trade it will continue its journey to Australia. The position I am in right now means that I can afford to get this car here but it may make more sense if I had a driving project. I am into wagons but may consider something else. Original paint and interiors would be important and definitely no rust buckets. The car is in Colorado Springs and has a Colorado title.Just so there is no messing around it would have to be a good cash offer if I were to let it go so keep that in mind.

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 recalling 1.5M cars in China for faulty bracket

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

General Motors and its Chinese partners have announced their second recall in the People's Republic this year, following a 2,653-unit recall of the Cadillac SRX earlier this year. This latest recall affects nearly 1.5 million cars built between 2006 and 2012. It's not explicitly stated, but as there's no movement from the US NHTSA, we suspect that the cars in question were all Chinese-built rather than imports.
The vast majority of the affected vehicles are Buick Excelles (pictured), with 1.2 million units being recalled over a faulty bracket that's meant to secure the fuel pump. The Excelles in question were built between 2006 and 2012, while an additional 250,000 Chevrolet Sail superminis, built between April 2009 and October 2011, are being recalled for a similar reason.
According to the PRC's Administration for Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the faulty bracket could crack and potentially cause a fuel leak.

Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.
