1983 BUICK RIVIERA CONVERTIBLE, EASY PROJECT, LOW MILES - This beautiful Riviera is one of 1,750 built in 1983.  It had the highest sticker price of any GM car sold that year.  This example has the 307 V8.  This particular car was sold new in Houston, TX.  It was shipped to me in WV over a year ago.  Since that time, the following have been replaced:  windshield, exhaust, bumper corners.  Also installed Coker American Classic tires.  This car has been sitting in the way since that time.  Therefore, I have decided to cut my losses and let her go.  Overall, it is a nice car that looks great.  It has very nice paint and chrome, nice straight body.  Interior is nice, but does have some imperfections:  slight crack in the dash pad and the driver's seat bottom has been repaired at some time, nice job, but slightly lighter in color, carpet is very nice and the door panels are also nice for the age.  The car drives, shifts and brakes fine; not sure about the cruise control or the A/C.  The A/C may need charged, but the heat and defog work.  The convertible top is in good condition.  it has no tears and raises and lowers fine.  The top does have some light staining which may scrub out.  You don't even notice it from 10' away.  The top boot is nice. 

Some of the items that need attention are: power antenna won't work; 6-way passenger seat doesn't move; the tilt works; power locks don't work; the right RR window will not raise or lower (relay, switch) - it just happened; the right hood hinge or prop rod needs replaced or adjusted, it hangs up a little when raising the hood.  There may be other small issues that I am not aware of since I have not really drove it much.  The car is really nice and solid underneath.  There are no rust issues or paint work needed, only a little mechanical time will be needed to have a nice Riviera Convertible.  Build sheet is "in-hand" along with the original manuals.

I reserve the right to end the auction early; although it has not been listed for sale on any other website or publication.  Car can be stored indoors for up to 30-days, but full pay is required in 7-days.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 304-261-1643.

Junkyard Gem: 1964 Buick Special sedan

Sun, Dec 2 2018

During the 1960s, the most mainstream possible vehicle for American streets was a GM-built sedan, either a full-sized B-Body or a mid-sized A-Body. These cars flew out of showrooms by the millions during the decade, and the angular 1964-1967 A-Bodies (including everything from the affordable six-cylinder Chevrolet Chevelle to the maniacal Pontiac GTO) remain sought-after by collectors to this day... provided that they're two-door hardtops. The post sedans just don't get much attention in 2018, and that's why this fairly solid 1964 Buick Special sedan didn't get rescued on its way to this sorry fate in California. Its final days before it washed up in this self-service wrecking yard, nestled between GM iron a third its age, some used-car lot failed to get $1,199 for this '64. The interior looks good, much better than what you'll see on most unrestored cars with better than a half-century on the calendar. If this car had been a Skylark two-door hardtop, its story would have had a happier ending. The decklid suffers from the kind of rust that California cars get when they sit outside for decades and the weatherstripping goes bad, and then someone at the junkyard pried it open to look for trunk goodies. There's likely to be more rust under the window trim, too. The engine was long gone by the time I got here, but it would have been a 225-cubic-inch V6 or a 300-cubic-inch V8 when new. The upscale 1964 Skylark was the same car, mechanically speaking, but it a more luxurious interior and snazzier body trim. The car that follows the fun anywhere... and above all, it's a Buick!

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Buick announces Ultium-based EV for the Chinese market

Wed, Nov 23 2022

Buick will expand its presence in the EV segment by launching a five-seater crossover on the Chinese market before the end of 2022. The model will use the Ultium technology developed by parent company General Motors, and it will be closely followed by another electric car. Official details about the model remain few and far between; we don't even know what it will be called yet. The company published an image that shows an electric platform topped by the outline of a crossover, and it clarified power will come from a battery pack with cells "tailored for China." The battery-powered Buick will also be available with the Super Cruise technology found in other General Motors models. The outline shares more than a passing resemblance with the heavily-camouflaged test mule that our spies spotted testing earlier in 2022, but it's difficult to tell whether we're looking at the same car. Trademark filings suggest Buick has several electric cars in the pipeline. While the crossover won't be the first electric Buick — the Velite 6 MAV went on sale in China in 2019 — executives have high hopes for it. To that end, the company will open up to 58 Buick EV City showrooms and over 600 Buick NEV Zones across China. It's also working with "mainstream third-party charging operators" to make over 400,000 charging points available throughout China by the end of 2023. Buick will release additional details about its upcoming electric model before the end of 2022, and deliveries are scheduled to start in the first half of 2023 on the Chinese market. As of writing, it's too early to tell whether the EV will join the Envista on its trip across the Pacific or stay in China. Looking ahead, the brand announced plans to release a second electric car built around Ultium technology before the end of 2023.
