Up for auction is a very nice 1969 Buick Skylark 2 door hard top. What I have for sale is a very nice car that turns heads and runs and drives GREAT. What I DON’T have for sale is a $40-$80K fire breathing dragon, beast of a hot rod. This is a car that you can get in, turn the key and drive to anywhere and enjoy it. The best part is that the pricing won’t BREAK THE BANK. WAAAAAAY less than $20K will buy this car and your money will be well spent. These cars are not readily available and continue to rise in price about 8% - 12% per year. With normal, routine maintenance I believe that this car will last for decades. In the late 60’s and early 70’s Buick was well known for its MONSTER HIGH TORQUE engines and its high line cars. The Buick name meant luxury and that did not always set well with the high performance guys of the day. If you wanted a “hot rod car” then you had to give up all of the FRILLS that went with the luxury cars….RIGHT? Well as we have seen in recent years you can own a 12 second car or 180+ top speed car , from the factory ( ZL1 Camaro, Shelby, Corvette etc) and drive it around with the windows rolled up and the A/C on, cruise set at 80 and get 20+ MPG. Some people want to look at, drive, or own the screamers of that era which in this case would be the big block version of the GS or GSX. This car is NOT that. This is the Skylark Custom. It still carries a 350 V-8 with 280 factory rated H.P. and 275 Ft.lbs torque and a 10.25:1 compression STOCK!!!! This car comes with its ORIGINAL MATCHING NUMBERS, high compression Buick 350, that will still bark the tires, shifting, when you push it. The automatic 3 speed transmission shifts nice and smooth when you’re just “DRIVING” around. This car is at home in the neighborhood at 30 m.p.h. or on the highway. It loves 75 m.p.h. It seems to just “float” down the road. Both the engine and transmission have about 13K miles on them and BOTH perform well. The dual flow master type exhaust gives this car a GREAT exhaust note and still is quiet enough at highway speeds to enjoy the aftermarket stereo. Power steering and ICE COLD FACTORY air conditioning finish up just what you would expect to find in a nice car that you may choose to drive every day. This car is that nice and that dependable. This car was refinished several years ago but still looks GREAT today. It is finished in its factory colors and shows no sign of any previous body damage. The windshield has a light scratch and a single “star” in it. The rest of the glass is in near perfect shape, as is the chrome and bright metal on this car. The front and rear suspension is in GREAT shape and it drives VERY WELL. The interior is in excellent condition with the exception of the headliner that I will replace before it leaves here. Just to be clear. It will have a PERFECT headliner the correct color when it sells. The body on this car is very straight and only shows a couple of “chips” or dings’. I don’t go on and on with a 10 page list of what all has been done and when. How about the fact that this car just does everything that it’s supposed to do and more. Add to that the fact that it has a near new appearance. I don’t need to tell you that I put new locking lug nuts on it and blah, blah, blah. It’s just right. Under the hood and under the car is nice and rust free. This is a nice car that has been very well maintained and can be driven home from Corpus Christi, Texas with confidence!! You may have questions, please feel free to call. Scott 361-331-3322. I can and will assist with shipping WORLD WIDE.I have been in the restoration business for more than 2 decades and yes, my opinions are mine. My opinion is that this is a very well done car that is used to being driven and performs as it did the day it was purchased new……45 years ago. Hard to find these days. As this car is for sale locally, I reserve the right to stop this ad at any time for any reason. |

2022 Buick Enclave Review | More style and features doesn't mean better
Wed, Feb 23 2022The Buick Enclave has been updated for 2022, and it delivers some added style and additional features, it also doesn't do anything to lift Buick's three-row SUV beyond average for the segment. For the most part, the 2022 Buick Enclave is the same as it was when this generation launched for the 2018 model year. On the plus side, it has a powerful V6 and a smooth transmission. The cabin is incredibly spacious, and additional standard safety features are certainly welcome. The base price is also quite low for three-row premium SUVs at just under $44,000. Where this biggest of Buicks falls short is in the finer details. The engine isn't well isolated, allowing coarseness into the cabin. The cabin also doesn't rise to the level of Lincoln, Acura, Infiniti and Volvo -- brands that aren't exactly the upper crust of luxury, but certainly beyond Ford, Chevy or Honda. For instance, while its controls are easy-to-use, the buttons and knobs feel low rent and are obviously shared with cheaper GM models. There isn't anything that makes it particularly stand out from the competition, either. So while the Enclave is spacious, affordable and decent enough to drive, we think there are nicer options wearing luxury badges as well as vehicles like the Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade that surpass it in their uppermost trim levels. Interior & Technology | Passenger & Cargo Space | Performance & Fuel Economy What it's like to drive | Pricing & Features | Crash Ratings & Safety Features What's new for 2022? The Enclave gets a variety of small updates mainly consisting of styling changes and feature additions. The exterior features new front and rear designs with new LED lighting front and rear. New wheel designs and exterior colors are also available. Inside, it's nearly identical to last year's model except for a new steering wheel, new push-button shifter and updated seat designs. A variety of other features have been added either as standard or as options such as a wireless phone charger, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a power sunshade for the rear sunroof, a front camera, head-up display, rear-pedestrian alert, adaptive cruise control, rear camera mirror and surround view camera. Furthermore, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, rear cross-traffic alert and automatic headlights are now standard. What are the Enclave interior and in-car technology like?

Repo man pays off elderly couple's car just in time for Thanksgiving
Mon, Nov 28 2016Repo men get bad raps for a good reason; no one likes having their car taken away. At least one guy in the repossession game proved folks in his profession aren't all bad when he helped an elderly couple hold on to their wheels right before Thanksgiving. According to the Belleville News-Democrat, unexpected bills and the rising cost of prescription medications pushed Stanford and Patty Kipping's fixed income to the breaking point. Unable to keep up with the $95 dollar a month payment on their 1998 Buick, they fell into arrears and the bank sent a repo man out to their home in Red Bud, Illinois to reclaim the car. Jim Ford, co-owner of Illini Recovery Inc., hooked up the old Buick and dragged it away, but later that night his conscience caught up with him. "When I got home that night, I said to myself, 'They are a real nice elderly couple. I gotta do something. I can't just take their car,'" Ford told the News-Democrat. Ford did do something, something surprisingly humane. He set up a GoFundMe and, within just a few short hours, he raised more than $3,500 dollars. This was enough money to pay off the Kipping's loan with a little left over for some maintenance. Ford and a friend then hooked the car back up and towed it back to the Kipping's home. Ford presented the couple with their trusty Buick, and threw in a thousand dollars in an envelope and a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving. "It was a miracle come true," Patty told the paper. "We didn't know what we were going to do." "I got up this morning and I looked up at the sun and I said, 'I hope we get our car back,'" added Stanford. "It's just unbelievable."Related Video: News Source: Belleville News-Democrat Auto News Weird Car News Buick repossession repo man
