1969 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible on 2040-cars
Discovery Bay, California, United States
|
After ten years of seeing this gorgeous Buick just parked in my garage, my wife finally laid down the law. This is going to be a tough decision, because I love this car and don't really want to sell it. It is a 72,000 documented mile factory A/C car that is not only a head turner every where we take it, but really wonderful to drive as well. In the past ten years, I have not put even 200 miles on the car. It has been used for local errands and parades only and spends all of its time locked in my garage. Everything in the car works, including the original factory AM Radio. The AC is in need of a charge, but the compressor does come on when you turn on the AC switch. It has factory stage 2 wheels with red line tires and the motor is a 350 cubic inch with 2 barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. When I bought the car, it came with a ton of receipts (see photos), including DMV registration going back to 1983. All of the receipts are in the name of the gentleman who I bought the car from. The car appears to have had one repaint many years ago and it still has a beautiful deep shine. The interior is all original and in extremely nice condition. The convertible top and rear window are in wonderful shape as well. This is a car that you can get in and drive anywhere and I guarantee you, every place you take it, you will get compliments from everyone who looks at it. We live in a small resort community here in northern California and every year we get a call from the Chamber of Commerce and local Lions Club asking to use the Buick in their upcoming parades.
I believe that cars like this 69 Buick, will do nothing but go up in value as the years go by. If you have been thinking about getting a 60's era car and you want one that you can drive and enjoy, rather than spend thousands repairing, this is the one you should be bidding on. This is a rust free, 72000 mile beauty with a clean clear California Title and registration paid through 2014. I ask that you please DO NOT bid on this car, if you don't have funds available to pay for it. I am located in northern California about an hour and twenty minutes from San Francisco. If you would like to come see the Buick before you bid, just send me an email, or give me a phone call and I will be glad to make arrangements with you to see the car. I can be reached at (925) 437-4701. There are no disappointments when you come to pick this beauty up. I guarantee that you will love the car when you see it. |

2017 Buick LaCrosse gets Avenir-inspired tease
Wed, Sep 23 2015Stylish touches from the beautiful Buick Avenir Concept are actually hitting the road on the front end of the new 2017 LaCrosse. The brand is showing off this single teaser of a more angular grille surround than what is currently seen on its lineup. In the center there's a three-color version of the well-known Tri-Shield badge. Chrome wings meet at the logo, and vertical chrome bars lead the eye up over the body. A version of this design is eventually becoming part of the entire Buick lineup by 2018. Debuting at the 2015 Los Angles Auto Show in November, the future LaCrosse rides on stronger, lighter underpinnings than the current model. It also gets a five-link rear suspension. The company promises that the changes mean a more engaging drive from the sedan. "The Avenir concept shattered expectations of what a Buick could be and the 2017 LaCrosse promises to do the same," Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick, said in the release of the teaser image. The show car's look was highly praised by critics when it debuted at this year's Detroit Auto Show. The Avenir even won Eyes on Design awards for Best Designed Concept Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.

A striking evolution from current Buick models, LaCrosse features a grille design that puts a new face on the brand, including a new, three-color tri-shield insignia set on a wing-shaped element. Contrasting with darkened waterfall grille bars and spanning the width of the opening, it connects the grille and headlamps, and emphasizes LaCrosse's new sculptural surfacing. The design was introduced on the Avenir concept and was inspired by the 1954 Wildcat II concept. It's a face all Buick models will adopt by 2018. "The Avenir concept shattered expectations of what a Buick could be and the 2017 LaCrosse promises to do the same," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick. "Its expressive design represents a break from convention and highlights the progressiveness in all new Buick models." The next-generation LaCrosse's design is framed on an all-new chassis that is stronger yet lighter than the current model and serves as the foundation for a more dynamic driving experience.
Buick Encore blitzes first-year sales predictions
Sat, 01 Mar 2014With its first full year of sales in the bag, it's safe to say that Buick has a hit on its hands with the Encore. US buyers have snatched up 31,046 of the small, premium crossovers since the Encore went on sale in January of 2013, while 97,311 were sold globally (not counting its counterparts from Opel and Vauxhall).
While we liked the Encore when we first drove it, we'll admit, we weren't sure how the tiny CUV would do. In fact, the first thing Executive Editor Chris Paukert wrote about the Encore was, "We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out." But it's done well, and has been subject to heavy demand over the past year, blowing away the estimates of analysts, who, according to an August story from Automotive News, projected no more than 18,500 units would be sold in 2013.
"Right out of the gate, demand for the Encore was high," Tony DiSalle, vice president of Buick marketing said in a statement. "It accounted for most of the segment's growth last year and that's because it offers the right safety, technology and features in the right-sized vehicle for many customers."

Wed, 24 Jul 2013A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.
