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.

Watch this phantom Buick drive itself down the highway in a snow storm
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Years ago, General Motors used Buick cars to test out the idea of a "smart highway" concept. More recently, GM has been talking up its award-winning Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology that will roll out with Cadillac and make its way to Buick. The LeSabre in the video above has nothing to do with any of that.
On Interstate 15 in Utah, a man driving this LeSabre got into an accident that rearranged the front end and set the horn on permanent blare. At the time of writing this, no one is sure what happened next, but the man ended up sitting in the snow in the highway median while his car carried on down the highway without him. Passing traffic stayed well to the right.
The 51-second video below provides a different take on our autonomous future. A local newscast on KUTV covered the story the evening of the incident, but the Utah Highway Patrol didn't have any update on the fate of the LeSabre. We'll take that to mean that Buick's take on Christine could still be out on the prowl... so watch out!
2016 Buick Envision might be your first Chinese-built crossover
Mon, Jan 11 2016At the Detroit Auto Show, the new Envision crossover flips the traditional Buick paridigm on its head. We've been hearing for years about strong sales of the Buick brand in China, but now we'll see if North America is ready for a Chinese-built (but, as GM is very quick to point out, American-engineered) CUV. The Envision rides on the latest version of the Delta 2 platform that underpins many GM vehicles. It'll slot between the tiny Encore and the cavernous Enclave, which is a nice sweet spot for volume sales in the hot crossover market. Gas is cheap, and Americans are eating these vehicles up – in a market like this, does it really matter where the Envision was actually screwed together? The powertrain package is surprisingly compelling – perhaps there will be some life to the driving experience. Motivation is provided by a 252-horsepower turbo inline-four and a six-speed auto, and in a first for a Buick crossover, it'll feature the torque-steer fighting HiPer suspension, which splits up steering and suspension duties in a way that'll tidy up the front axle's manners under power. A few other neat tricks make it into the Envision, like active grille shutters to squeeze some extra efficiency out of the CUV, and available park assist. The 2016 Buick Envision goes on sale later this year. Buick Introduces Envision Luxury Crossover DETROIT – The 2016 Envision is an all-new luxury compact crossover with segment-challenging driving dynamics, advanced technology, connectivity and Buick's trademark interior acoustics. It is a global vehicle, designed from the ground up as a Buick luxury compact crossover. It goes on sale in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2016. "The all-new Buick Envision is a modern, confident and responsive luxury compact crossover that combines the brand's core characteristics with great performance features like our HiPer strut suspension," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick.
How to hack a Buick Regal with CarKnow
Thu, 08 Aug 2013If you own an Apple iPhone or Android device, perhaps you've been tempted to jailbreak or root it. This process gives you access to the the software's code, and can be used to make minor or drastic changes to its operating system. CarKnow, a company in Boston, is working applying a similar concept to the automobile.
Translogic recently took a look inside CarKnow to see just how it can tweak the computers inside a car and what sort of things can be done. As our transportation tech sister site explains, CarKnow basically created a digital duplicate of their Buick Regal in the cloud, while harvesting data generated to create custom apps and infiltrate the deepest function of their test car.
And before you freak out about people maliciously taking over your car, CarKnow's founder, Josh Siegel, stresses that it isn't quite so easy as driving up alongside someone. Take a look at the full video below to see just what it's like to jailbreak a car.
