Here is a very nice, very clean 1974 Buick LeSabre Convertible. 5.7L 350 Buick motor. 71,320 original miles. This is the 'Luxus' model, which I believe was only offered for 1974 convertibles only. This is a seldom seen model, with only 3,627 produced. When's the last time you seen one? Be the guy with the rare Buick scissortop when everyone else has a Chevy ; ) This is a good running, and driving car. Hop in, and drive. It is not perfect, but is in exceptional condition and is absolutely worth throwing some money at and having a high dollar, rare, convertible. Wheels are in good shape, and show well. Tires are in good shape too. Bumpers are nice, light scratches and fading, normal wear, still nice though. The paint has some scratches, and touch-ups and fading in 1 or 2 areas. Overall it shows quite well, but is far from perfect. 10-footer. The body has no rot, and is straight. Doors are straight, solid, and door hinges are clean, and operate smooth. They open and close very easy. Some rust bubbleing up around the LH rear qtr under the paint, see pic, is the worst rust on the body, and it's minimal. There's a few 'dime-sized' dings here and there, but not many. The top is in fair condition, goes up and down on it's own just fine, top is ok, has a small tear or 2, but is in good shape otherwise. I personally would eventually replace it, but is 100% functional and useable as is. Has clear plastic rear window. Comes with white vinyl boot cover. Cover has seemed to have slightly shrunk over time and is kind of a pain to put on, but maybe you can stretch it back out. Interior is in great shape. Carpet is decent, dash has no cracks. Door panels, arm rests, and trim in excellent shape. Has 8-track AM/FM radio. Back speakers still work, front is shot. All electrical functions front to back work 100%. No A/C. Seats are the only real issue with the interior. The front seat needs to be re-upholstered. It is ripped, and needs to be re-covered. The bottom half of the rear has 2 blemishes, that someone tried to repair? Other than that, the back seat is in great shape, and for that matter so is the rest of the interior. No power options, the crank windows go up and down perfect. All glass in excellent shape. Steering wheel and column looks great and functions perfect. Brakes work great, and car rides nice and smooth. Underbody is very clean, frame is solid, and all floors, with the exception of the rear drivers, are perfect. Not sure why this one area rotted out, given how clean the rest of the underside is, but, is a pretty simple repair for anyone who can weld, and is not that big of an area. Under the hood has fresh air filter, spark plugs and wires, and oil change. Also has new emergeny brake cables. Transmission shifts as it should. Car starts right up and runs good. The bad: Like I said, the body and top are nice, but not perfect, and the seats need attention. And the floorpan. The battery doesn't hold a charge if it sits for a few days. When it's started everyday it's fine. The heater core doesn't work, and has been disconnected and bypassed. I just haven't had time to fix it. Headlight buckets have pitting in the chrome, and so does the taillight trim. The exhaust has a light grumble, due to a leak at the manifold and y-pipe connection. Not bad at all, it's just not silent. I want whoever considers buying this car to have no worries or un-answered questions. Please call or email with any questions you have. I am looking for a fair price, and will accept a reasonable offer. 585-520-2440 Car will not be given away. $1000 DEPOSIT DUE WITHIN 24HOURS OF PURCHASE, FULL PAYMENT DUE WITHIN 14 DAYS OF DOWNPAYMENT. THE BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR VEHICLE PICK UP/SHIIPPING. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, PLEASE DON'T WASTE MY TIME. Thanks for looking, and again, please call with any questions you have. -Ryan 585-520-2440. !!!!---->Please visit my Flickr photo page where you can find many more photos of the car. Simply go to Flickr.com, and go to caprala23's photo page. I will be adding more pictures tomorrow of inside the trunk and the underbody, and I can add more at by request anytime. Thank you.

2013 Opel Cascada

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

The Future Buick Verano Convertible?
I wasn't wearing a pedometer while in Germany covering the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, but it's safe to say I walked more than a few miles between press conferences, shooting cars and trekking back to the media center on the first day alone. For this reason, it didn't take much convincing from General Motors for me to duck out of the Messe a day early and drive some of its latest Opel models. No, this didn't include the all-new Country Tourer, but I was able to drive the Opel Mokka (our Buick Encore), the Opel Adam and the Opel Cascada.
I focused most of my driving time behind the wheel of the Cascada, which went on sale in Europe earlier this year, since rumors are swirling that a Buick version of this convertible "could happen soon." Buick hasn't had a convertible since the Reatta, and GM has been lacking a non-performance, budget-minded convertible since the Pontiac brand - and its G6 - was dropped, so adding the Cascada to Buick showrooms could further help the reemerging brand compete in the near-luxury segment. Although the weather was too chilly (and occasionally rainy) to enjoy the Cascada with its top down for very long, I was able to clock a fair bit of drive time behind the wheel on roads ranging from the autobahn to tight roads in small, quaint villages.

eBay Find Of The Day: 1946 Tucker Torpedo Prototype II hides a secret Riviera

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

The Tucker Torpedo is one of the great what-if stories of automotive history. Preston Tucker hoped to revolutionize the industry with a car unlike any other on the road at the time. However, due to a variety of problems, he only managed build 51 vehicles before closing shop. Over time, they have become highly sought-after; In 2012, one sold for $2.65 million at auction.
That brings us to this Tucker "replica" that you see above because it might be one of the ugliest monstrosities ever put together. However, we might extend some leniency to the creator, as the vehicle isn't actually trying to replicate the classic look of the 1948 Tucker Torpedo. Instead, it is attempting to reproduce an earlier prototype from 1946 that actually features that weird, trident nose. According to the seller, his uncle built the car as a labor of love and supposedly used actual plans from Tucker as inspiration.
Underneath all of the crazy changes is a 1971 Buick Riviera powered by a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) Buick V8. Some of the replica's odder modifications include the front fenders that turn with the wheels and the fin running down the back. All three headlights work, but the one in the middle is only for the high beams. Oddly, the small hinged sections on the roof are meant to open to avoid hitting your head when getting in or out. Maybe the seller's uncle was a very tall guy?

Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse

Sun, 27 Apr 2014

The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
