LOOK BUT YOU WILL NEVER FIND another, like this Kustom car anywhere . One of a kind super build that really shows well and always takes home the prize  at any car show.  This is a great driver as well and gets good gas mileage . 
 
The 53 Buick body started out as a two door hard top which has been modified to fit the 1993 Buick  Road Master drive train which was selected and grafted with the 53 body, and very nicely I might add. Sooo you have all the modern  traits with anti lock brakes, fuel injection , over drive trans, power steering, and power disk front brakes.

The all steel body was shaved, chopped, Frenched, and lowered for a bad ass look.  Halogen headlights, LED ‘59 Caddy tail lights, Kustom gas filler, shaved door handles with Frenched tail lights and antenna.   Kustom stainless steel exhaust tips, Dayton wire wheels with 3” Diamondback whitewalls, a removable Carson style top used for inclement weather  has snap on convertible style boot.  Painted 2002 Corvette Torch Red.  

The engine is a ZZ4-350, with custom intake which covers the throttle body fuel injection 4-barrell, carb, computer controlled, factory air conditioning, overflow can. Factory everything else.

The interior using 1966 Thunderbird bucket seats and wrap around rear seat in leather with matching seatbelts.  Carpet is Corvette color to match paint.  A late model Cadillac Escalade console, modified to fit at dash with working air for rear passengers.  A Sony sound system keeps you smiling as the miles roll by.  The steering column down  is the 93, as well as the floorboard, chassis and all stock runner underneath. A 7” touch screen navigation system, which is removable for other vehicle use. One-off Kustom steering wheel from Concept To Reality Company, 5” dolphin gauges, power windows, key fob door locks and trunk, one remote button underneath car for access without key. Finished out trunk with locking compartment.  

Do not bid if you do not want to attract attention at any point in your journey.
Do not bid if you do not want to talk to people who are fascinated with this car.
Do not bid if your wife does not approve about spending this money.
Do not bid if you do not want a bad ass looking car.
Do not bid if your pockets are empty.  (NO TIRE KICKERS)
I am a long time E-Bayer and have bought and sold cars here and I really hate having to move this one on but health forces sale.  A couple of things need attention:  speedometer hookup (loose wire?), backwards fuel gauge reading. Horn just stopped working (relay?)

You will receive all receipts and detailed info on the entire build, where things are, A-Z, so you can find electrical port for diagnostic, computer location, battery location, lock-out switch location, etc.

Buick reveals production GL8 Century minivan, and you can't have one

Fri, Jun 3 2022

The futuristic GL8 MPV concept Buick showed late last year in China is headed to production. This jazzed-up people-mover appears to have held true to its concept design, with only a few elements of the exterior getting attention before heading to the assembly line.  At first blush, the most significant change from the concept is the exterior paint scheme, which was essentially inverted over several of its surfaces. The glossy silver grille of the concept gave way to a more conventional honeycomb pattern for the production version, but accents in a similar silver finish are now visible along the hood and roofline and the rising wave that peaks just in front of the GL8 Century's C-pillar.  Admittedly, the production car loses some of the wilder elements of the concept's cabin, but perhaps not as much as you might expect based on the interior photo included here. We can only see the rear seats, which give off sort of a baby private jet vibe that is vastly more impressive than what Buick offers in its American SUVs.  The Century will sit atop Buick's GL8 lineup of MPVs (which includes the more-pedestrian GL8 ES and GL8 Legacy) in China when it goes on sale later this year.

Buick shows US dealers 2016 Cascada convertible

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

The affordable four-seat convertible has become a largely forgotten genre in the States, especially with the death of the Chrysler 200 Convertible. Of course, there are still premium options from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz - not to mention more overtly performance-oriented droptop pony cars from Chevrolet and Ford - but if you want an affordable cruiser, you're kind of out of luck. That may be about to change, however, with renewed rumors of the Opel Cascada (pictured above) making it across the Atlantic wearing a Buick badge.
According to GM Inside News, Buick showed off the Cascada to US dealers last week, with renewed word that the company plans to bring it over from Europe for the 2016 model year. The US version will reportedly be practically identical to its German cousin in terms of styling, but the powertrain underneath is less certain. According to GMI, it may use the 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that is available in Europe with either 168 horsepower or 197 hp.
The Cascada rides on GM's Delta II platform, which also underpins the Verano, and the latest rumor certainly provides even more evidence that the convertible is probably on the way. Speculation about the droptop started when GM CEO Dan Akerson said last year that the car was on his wish list to bring over. Then, the US trademark on the name was reserved earlier this year, and the release was speculated for sometime in early 2016.

Here are all the cars GM is axing as part of its restructuring

Tue, Nov 27 2018

GM plans to kill off a couple of great and a few meh cars as part of its restructuring. Here's a rundown of all the cars being phased out of production. None of the vehicles GM axed were SUVs or crossovers. Instead, it was an action reminiscent of what Ford recently decided to do by discontinuing U.S. sales every Blue Oval sedan. GM just didn't explicitly say, "We're killing our cars," like Ford did — probably a smart move by GM. Keep scrolling down to see the full list of deceased GM models. Chevrolet Volt This one was the most surprising of all the cars GM decided to can, primarily because cars with plugs are supposed to be our future. However, maybe consumer demand just isn't quite there yet for a plug-in like the Volt. We came up with all sorts of ideas for what was to blame for the untimely demise of the Volt, so go check that out for a full breakdown of the situation. Cadillac CT6 Here's another car we'll be sad to see go. Cadillac's flagship sedan was such a joy to drive, and it served as the conduit to deliver GM's semi-autonomous Super Cruise system, which still hasn't been surpassed by any other company's technology in our books, even Tesla's Autopilot. That being said, GM does plan to produce the CT6 until March, with the last cars coming off the line set to be twin-turbo V8 V-Series models. If it's going to go, this seems like a pretty great way to make an exit. We'll be patiently awaiting the next flagship Cadillac once this one finally fades away. Chevrolet Impala The Impala is actually a pretty good car. It doesn't sell terribly, and we think it's a completely satisfactory car to drive. However, people would rather have a Traverse or Equinox these days, making the Impala one of the vehicles to find itself on this list. Chevrolet is keeping its smaller brother, the Malibu, but a big, full-size sedan just isn't what people are ordering up these days. It's unfortunate to see it go, but we won't be broken up over it. Chevrolet Cruze We wouldn't rank the Cruze at the top of the compact car class, but if you were looking for a small, cheap American car, it was either this or the Focus. The Cruze had the potential to be a true small performance car if Chevy had ever wanted to make it into one. But sadly, we're seeing it bow out before Chevy ever tried to slot a hot engine and suspension in there to make it competitive with other hot hatches. A Cruze SS would have made enthusiasts take notice.
