 * SUPER DEPENDABLE DRIVER *
Authentic classic muscle !! at a reasonable price!!
This car runs so well, I would trust it on a cross-country trip. I have driven it to Pigeon Forge and Myrtle Beach to enter it in car show and it drove flawlessly.
Most of the restoration was done by the prior owner, and I have done some mechanical updates.
It is not a trailer queen, this muscle car was meant to run down the road and it does that quite well.
It has the original Buick 350 V8 engine and TH350 automatic transmission. The original 4bbl carburetor has been replaced with a new 4bbl Edelbrock carburetor.
True mileage is unknown, but the odometer reads about 38,500 miles.
Parts added in the last few years include American Racing Torque Trust rims, B.F.Goodrich radials, complete new exhaust, aluminum radiator and all hoses, chrome flex fan, chrome overflow tank, brake booster, brake master cylinder, stainless steel brake lines, stainless steel transmission cooler lines, Forged Aluminum Transmission Pan, forged aluminum "GS" differential cover, front and rear shocks, gas tank, fuel gauge sending unit, "resto" AM/FM stereo, front and rear speakers, hidden radio antenna, seat belts, chrome fire extinguisher, removable anti-theft steering wheel, Buick valve covers, Edelbrock air cleaner, plus other stuff I've forgotten.
The prior owner painted the car and added a new vinyl roof, new carpeting, new headliner, re-chromed bumpers, new heater core, plus replaced other maintenance and trim items. The transmission has always worked flawlessly and was serviced last year to cure a few leaks.
There are some blemishes in the paint, but nothing too serious.
The prior owner installed after-market vinyl covered bucket seats and had the rear bench seat covered in a matching "resto-mod" color scheme---black and orange.
If you are interested, please email your phone number to me and I will call you to discuss what's great with this car, and what could use some attention.
Remember, it is 45 years old. It uses some oil, just like most of these cars do.
I have won trophies in all local car shows I have entered.
I have more images if you are interested.
Thank you for considering this classic muscle car.
Reasonable cash offers considered after you have checked out this AMERICAN MUSCLE ! Clear Virginia title in my name. No liens.

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights

Sun, 01 Sep 2013

Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.

Jay Leno finds no detail neglected on Icon's Derelict 1948 Buick Super

Wed, Apr 1 2015

Jonathan Ward seems to have one of the greatest jobs in the world. As the CEO at Icon, he's in charge of not only the company's fantastic trucks but its Derelict series of semi-restored classics, as well. Ward's vehicles are no strangers to Jay Leno's Garage, but the latest guest on the show might be one of Icon's coolest yet. What looks like a 1948 Buick Super Convertible on the outside hides the supercharged heart of a Corvette ZR1 underneath. Like the rest of the Derelict series, this old Buick's toasted paint and pitted chrome are all part of the charm of the car, and it's really a case of beauty being more than skin deep. The Super rides on a custom chassis and suspension to make the convertible a far better driver than even a pristine original example. Plus, Ward hides all sorts of modern upgrades inside that are practically invisible until he points them out. Leno absolutely falls in love with driving the Derelict Buick. If his enthusiasm grabs you, the video below from Ward goes much deeper into the build process of this awesome project.

2018 Buick Regal GS : The 310-hp American hot hatch

Wed, Jul 19 2017

Buick has spent the last decade shredding its perception as the low-level luxury vehicle for geriatrics, but the brand hasn't always been associated with that crowd. In fact, ask some enthusiasts and you'll hear about the GM 3800 series engines, IndyCar racing, and the mythical GS and GNX. In that high-octane theme, GM pulled back the curtain on the all-new, all-wheel drive, 310-horsepower 2018 Buick Regal GS Wednesday morning in Milford, MI. The GS is basically a sport-tuned version of the all-new Buick Regal. We've seen the standard and high-riding wagon variants, but this is our first look at what's likely to be the enthusiast pick. The Regal GS uses the five-door sportback bodystyle from the standard car (though a GS version of the TourX would be awesome), swiped from GM's soon-to-be former German division, Opel. While a number of automakers are downsizing engines, Buick is soldiering on with its tried and true naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6, in this guise making 310 horsepower and 282 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels through a nine-speed automatic. The all-wheel drive system uses a twin-clutch setup and has been tuned specifically for the GS. The Regal GS makes more power than both the Acura TLX A-Spec (290 horsepower) and the Lexus IS350 F-Sport (306 horsepower). The V6 features both cylinder deactivation and auto stop/start for better fuel economy. The fully independent suspension uses the second-gen Continuous Damping Control (CDC), capable of 500 adjustments per second. Selectable modes allow the driver to tailor the car to fit the situation. Large Brembo front brakes are surrounded by standard 19-inch wheels and tires. The exterior gets a few styling changes like a sporty front and rear fascias, a small rear spoiler, and plenty of GS badges. Inside, the Regal GS gets unique sport seats with integrated headrests and adjustable lumbar and thigh bolsters. They even come standard with heating, ventilation, and massaging functions. The driver faces a GS badged flat-bottom steering wheel and GS-specific pedals. A full-color heads-up display is optional. Available safety features include front pedestrian braking, lane keep assist with lane departure warnings, forward collision alert, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. The real key for the success of the Regal GS could be pricing.
