As always, I will consider any reasonable offer to end early Since turning 70, my family has been encouraging me to sell most of my personal cars, so I am motivated by them to sell Back in the 60's, amongst the 409Chev, the '69GTO, and several other Muscle Cars I was fortunate to own, was a 64 Wildcat 445 2dr Cpe that not only was a real runner, but was a car with a superb ride as well. Several years ago, I spotted this Riviera Gran Sport for sale by Jerry Hammer at GM Obsolete in Phoenix, and I had to own it when I saw that it had the ultra-rare Factory MZ Code engine. Buick only built 179 of these engines , as a special advertising program , and if you don't know about them, you can easily follow these links http://www.hemmings.com/mus/stories/2006/07/01/hmn_buyers_guide1.html http://rivowners.org/features/Ev_Stats/66-69/index.html The car was a beautiful West Coast survivor that had also been TLC'd and primped by Jerry , who is well known in the Riviera World After unloading it from an enclosed carrier, the car was driven to cruz's and shows, then sent to the CarNut Museum , Birmingham, where it stayed on display for a year or so. Upon it's return, I decided to upgrade even further the condition of the car, and so had the White Pearl repaint removed, and returned the car to the correct Buick Artic White. No cheap paint job, the car was primered with special DuPont white primer, and finished with the best DuPont base/clear, with the multiple coats of clear blocked between coats. Hood removed, and totally refinished underneath. New hood insulation pads installed. The engine compartment was pretty nice when we got it, but we redid all the black surfaces with a lot of hand sanding and the correct Eastwood Underhood black matte, The Windshield had a couple of small chips, so I had it removed, and replaced after the paint job The front and rear bumpers were decent, but we sent them to Mike in California and had them re-chromed. When we reinstalled them, all the Silver Argent trim was carefully redone with special base/clear, including the bumper filler pans, top and underneath, and the headlight trim rings. The interior was in nice condition, except the carpet kick panel on the drivers door had some wear, so we had the upholstery shop professionally replace that piece. Doorjambs, etc were re-painted , of course, and new rubber door seals , as well as the trunk seal The top cowl panel was removed, and refinished underneath, as well as the inside of the cowl area and firewall, with special black matte from Eastwood As nice as the car is, like all 'survivors, it is not flawless. The horn ring is missing from the steering wheel..I never thought to look for one. Also I have not replaced the cardboard trunk side panels ( they are still available). The chrome on the original wheels has a few thin spots, but looks good overall, and the rare Riviera center caps are in nice condition. The rest of the chrome and stainless is in nice condition except the two small pieces in the rear are a bit pitted ( not so noticeable) , and could be redone in the Winter. The cardboard piece near the inside of the rear window is a bit out of place, but hardly noticeable.. Buick used premium upholstery materials, and the upholstery is in nice condition, with just a small amount of wear on the passenger seat edge-piping. Besides doing a great job detailing the motor, etc, Jerry did a fine job on the undercarriage, including all new free-flow exhaust. We didn't do any underside refinishing, except the bumper brackets, when we re-installed the bumpers . I have obviously tried to be a detailed as possible in describing the car, but please ask questions, as I cannot anticipate, or remember everything. For the serious buyer, I will supply any pictures desired.... of the pictures I have posted, some are as the car arrived from Phoenix, and heading for the CarNut Museum ... as well as the later pictures back in Artic White ( the wipers were removed for buffing ) I love the car...but at 71years old ...they say it's time for me to let it go Terms: $500 deposit by PayPal with 24 hours, and the balance by cash in person, or bank, within 5 days.

Car News China caught a completely undisguised example parking outside of the convention center where the show is held. The 2023 Chicago Auto Show played host to a number of reveals this year, and we were there to capture all of them. In traditional auto show fashion, that means you’re getting a mega gallery of galleries to flip through and see all the vehicles on the show floor. Our EditorsÂ’ Picks from the show are already out — spoiler alert, the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander took home the prize. That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in. To see the photos, scroll on down and start flipping through those galleries.  2024 Toyota Grand Highlander 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander View 7 Photos 2024 Volkswagen Atlas 2024 Volkswagen Atlas View 14 Photos 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport View 7 Photos 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse with its carbon fiber wheels 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse with carbon fiber wheels View 7 Photos 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray View 10 Photos Jeep Wrangler Anniversary Editions Jeep Wrangler Anniversary Editions View 3 Photos 2023 BMW XM 2023 BMW XM View 6 Photos Ram Revolution Concept Ram Revolution Concept View 6 Photos NASCAR Chicago Street Race Pace Car — Toyota Camry NASCAR Chicago Street Race Pace Car ?

The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23. 2040Cars.com © 2012-2024. All Rights Reserved.

Buick Envision spied fully disrobed in China
Wed, 27 Aug 2014
The Buick designers are going right down the middle with the styling with nothing too flashy to turn off potential buyers. Still, it's a handsome CUV that kind of looks like a stretched Encore from some angles with vents along the hood, a large greenhouse and a prominent crease running down the side.
This new midsizer is hitting the Chinese market first and reportedly rides on GM's Delta platform that's also found underneath the Buick Verano. According to Car News China, prices there are between 160,000 yuan and 220,000 yuan ($26,000 - $35,800 at current rates). However, it's also rumored to eventually make its way across the Pacific to give Buick buyers in the US an option between the Encore compact crossover and larger Enclave.2023 Chicago Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery: See all the new cars from the show
