1963 Buick Riviera Custom Cruiser Coupe Arizona Rust Free Beauty on 2040-cars
Chandler, Arizona, United States
Up for grabs is my 1963 Buick Riviera. It is a super clean Arizona rust free beauty. The odometer shows 103,500 and I believe that to be accurate after getting thoroughly acquainted with this car. The floor pans, rocker panels, trunk floor is all original and rock solid. The car was repainted in 2000 and still looks great. It isn't showroom perfect by any means, but still looks great. The car was originally white. The wheels are 17x9 Boyd Coddington Venus billet aluminum. The tires are 255/50/17 Nitto NT555 with 750 miles. It will also come with the original wheels and nearly new 225/75/15 whitewalls and hubcaps that are in excellent condition. If you aren't interested in the custom wheels a will work with you on the price. The car sits on 1" lowering springs with new shocks. The front end has polyurethane bushings in the sway bar and front shocks. That made a huge difference. The numbers matching 401 Nailhead runs like a top. Even the choke works. The waterpump is new and so is the radiator. Also the fan clutch and thermostat are as well. Cant be too careful with the cooling system here in AZ. The freeze plugs were done 10 or so years ago. The AC system is complete and looks like it has never been open. It does however blow warm. I guess it should be retrofitted to r134a. The transmission is a Dynaflow and is works smooth and responsive. The differential has new oil as of last week. The brakes are excellent. They operate smooth and evenly. Shoes are at 75% front and 80% rear. All glass is excellent and free from scratches. All gauges work. The interior is very nice and the headliner is near perfect. The radio is new, but it doesn't work. (Fuse?) Many weatherstrip pieces have been replaced. It will come with a large file of receipts, a body service manual, and a chassis service manual specific to the 1963 Buicks. This car gets tons of attention and is an absolute pleasure to drive. I just returned from a 750 mile road trip to Vegas and it worked perfectly. I wouldn't hesitate to jump in and take it back there tomorrow. Feel free to email with any questions., |

Buick teases the next-gen LaCrosse
Sat, Oct 31 2015Buick continues to play coy about the next-generation LaCrosse, but the latest teaser hints at a swoopy profile for the upcoming sedan. While mostly just a silhouette, the teaser does provide a glimpse of the flowing roof and upward crease around the rear fenders – especially handsome touches. The rest of the LaCrosse remains a mystery. The only other part that we've seen is the Avenir-inspired grille, which features a more angular surround and chrome wings jutting from emblem in the center. Styling aside, the brand claims that the sedan is now more engaging behind the wheel thanks to a stronger, lighter chassis and five-link rear suspension. Powertrain rumors are rather vague but suggest the 3.6-liter V6 will be available when the model arrives at dealers in 2016. One thing we know for certain about the LaCrosse is that it debuts at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. That only leaves a few more weeks for Buick to keep this mystery going. Related Video:
Buick Encore blitzes first-year sales predictions
Sat, 01 Mar 2014With its first full year of sales in the bag, it's safe to say that Buick has a hit on its hands with the Encore. US buyers have snatched up 31,046 of the small, premium crossovers since the Encore went on sale in January of 2013, while 97,311 were sold globally (not counting its counterparts from Opel and Vauxhall).
While we liked the Encore when we first drove it, we'll admit, we weren't sure how the tiny CUV would do. In fact, the first thing Executive Editor Chris Paukert wrote about the Encore was, "We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out." But it's done well, and has been subject to heavy demand over the past year, blowing away the estimates of analysts, who, according to an August story from Automotive News, projected no more than 18,500 units would be sold in 2013.
"Right out of the gate, demand for the Encore was high," Tony DiSalle, vice president of Buick marketing said in a statement. "It accounted for most of the segment's growth last year and that's because it offers the right safety, technology and features in the right-sized vehicle for many customers."
GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy
Mon, 05 May 2014With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
