This is a 1971 Buick skylark custom convertible with an olds 455 rocket motor. There is 95 k on the car and the motor has around 2500 miles on it. This car has a new dual flow master exhaust, top end rebuilt olds 455, new convertible top, new pistons and hydraulic lines for the convertible top, new interior , The ignition has been rebuilt, new alt, new brake booster and master cylinder, new heavy duty aluminum radiator, new tires, new ball joints, new rubber seals all around the convertible top, widow pillars, window sweeps, hood cowl, trunk, door seals, lock seals, carpet, oil pressure gauge, volt gauge,temp gauge, carpet in trunk. The car has a lot of power and runs and shift out smooth, The top is electric and works like a charm and the car does not run hot and there's no jerk when it shifts and the car has a system as well with two 12 inch J L competition audio in a box and six 6 inch speakers throughout the car with dual tweeters up front powered by an alpine deck. The rims are lexani 22 inch rims with continental tires. Ok so here is some things that are minor, but u should know paint has some chips and scratches and the bumpers need the plastic cap gasket that snap in. The old ones where removed when the bumpers where re chromed. There is a dent in the rear quarter panel. . The back window needs a quarter window chrome peace for the window seal. The passenger side has one and not the drivers side i All of the windows are power and work great and they need a slight adjustment as far as how they slide into the new gaskets we installed.. The line from the passenger side door is not a perfect line to the fender. I know all of this sounds minor and most people would not give such a long description, but like I said I want the winning bidder to be happy and know all that I do. The owner before me replaced the floor pans .and he removed the A/C compressor,when he rebuilt the motor, but all of the A/C lines are still in places. This is all i know of that the car needs in which is minor considering the year of the car and the amount of work that has already been done.I am honest on all that i know and you may inspect the car before bidding and you are welcome to bring a mechanic as well to look over the car before bidding not after. The car is driven almost every other day and very road worthy and solid and catches a lot of attention when driving. This car has had a lot of money put in it and has not been treated like a hot rod. the car does not smoke or burn oil. and like i said jump in and go. The rims ride pretty smooth. Ok so thats all the good and bad and this is the condition of the sale if you have a low score or no score please contact me before bidding and there will be a $ 1,000 deposit at the end of the auction. If you need the car shipped i can help with driving the car up on the car transport trailer and it will be up to you to make the arrangement with the shipping company.. I also wanted to place this in the ad that if you are planning on buying this car for a student in school please understand this car has a lot of power and needs to be expressed to them for there safety and others and hot rodding will only tear the car up and it's meant to cruise in. well other than that very fun car and nothing like dropping the top and hitting the road on a sunny day to cruise around listing to the rumble of an old muscle car.. Please feel free to ask any questions and if u need pictures of something i missed send me a message and ill get a picture to you. The car will be up for sale in the local area and if it is sold that will end any auction in progress.! I had this car on Ebay before and now I have lowered the reserve for a faster sale. I have more in this car than iam selling it for, so the winning bidder will have a nice gain. Thank you again for looking and happy bidding.

Buick Regal GS and troupe of basketball dribblers make great beats
Wed, 02 Apr 2014The 166 videos posted by YouTube music video maestro Kurt Hugo Schneider have been watched almost half a billion times. When Coke wanted to do something musically inclined and a little different, it called KHS, and the result was the video Little Talks.
Buick appears to be the next blue chip in line, and KHS' melodic celebration of the 259-horsepower Regal GS is called Epic Basketball + Car Beat. In it, a red Regal sits at center court in Venice Beach, California while a cast of ridiculous dribblers make music with and around the sedan.
We'll let the music speak for itself, which it does quite well in the video below.
Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]
Wed, Jan 14 2015Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
