 1972 Buick GS Stage 1- GSX Tribute 350/350 Restored, Rally’s Hood Tach.

This is a clean and restored 1972 Buick GS Stage 1 that has been turned into a GSX Tribute vehicle. This car is the real-deal, numbers matching Buick GS Stage 1. The "GSX" package was added to the car at the time of the restoration so this should really be considered a clone or tribute car. This rare factory GS Stage 1, features the correct fully functional "Ram Air" hood with functional scoops, a fully functional hood mounted tachometer, the correct GSX rear spoiler and of course the correct stripes, decals and emblems including the correct GSX grill and dash emblems.

The Buick is in great condition overall and runs and drives great. Will need some minor things addressed at some point if you want a perfect car. The car was restored over 10 years ago and although it still looks great, there are minor issues with the paint work that are worth notating. For example, there is a small dent in the passenger front fender that chipped off the paint and there is some minor bubbling just above the rear wheel wells, bottom of one door and some other minor spots. The car also has several small nicks and chips in the paint from the past ten years of usage. None of the above mentioned effects the function of the vehicle and there are no actual holes in the body, but the car is not completely flawless and it's an older restoration. The paint is still very bright and shiny.

The vinyl seats are power although not currently hooked up. At the time of restoration, the carpet was replaced, the dash pad recovered, a new wiring harness was installed as was a new headliner. The car has factory power steering and power disc brakes, front and rear sway bars, manual windows, manual door locks. The factory installed A/C is still in the car although not currently functioning. All other components of the A/C system are there (compressor, accumulator, evaporator, and condenser) so getting the A/C functioning again should be fairly simple. Fuel gauge not working but a new sending unit is included with the sale.
.
The motor is the correct, number matching small block 350-4 backed by the original TH-350 automatic transmission. The car retains all of its correct factory components with the exception of an Holly 650CFM carburetor. A new battery has been installed along with new rotors new brakes on all four corners, four shocks, four brand new BFG Radial T/A tires. The car starts with a simple tap of the starter and truly has great street manors. The motor runs smoothly and very strong and the transmission shifts through all the gears as it should. Both the motor and transmission were rebuilt at the time of the restoration although the exact mileage is unknown. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere!
.
The windshield wipers are currently not working. I have not spent any time trying to diagnose the problem; it may simply be a blown fuse. The speedometer cable is not currently plugged into the back of the cluster.  There are aftermarket oil pressure, water temp and voltage gauges that all work as they should.

If you have any questions or would like to see the car in person, please call 904-268-1356.  Will consider all offers, cash plus trades , please emails pictures and information about your trade. Seller reserves the right to end this auction at any time.

Next Buick Regal coming in 2017, could be imported from Germany

Sun, 03 Aug 2014

The Buick Regal is based on the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia, a pair of sedans from General Motors' European and British outfits. In fact, over 46,000 Regals from model years 2010 and 2011 were screwed together on the same lines as the Insignia twins, before GM's Oshawa, Ontario factory took over production fully. Considering this closeness, rumors that claim the next-generation Regal - due for 2017 - could move back to Europe aren't terribly surprising. Here's why, according to Automotive News.
Oshawa is home to three other vehicles, aside from the Regal - the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala rental queen and the Cadillac XTS. We already know next-gen Camaro production is headed to Lansing, MI, and that the fleet-only Impala will (finally!) die in 2016. As for the XTS, as AN explains it, sales are so slow that GM will either kill it or just shuffle its production volume elsewhere.
Taken along with the fact that Unifor, the Canadian labor union repping workers at the Oshawa factory, claim GM hasn't made any guarantees about future production at the nearly 60-year-old factory, it seems fairly clear that the Regal's current factory is going to be put out to pasture.

GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.

Why Buick's Encore wasn't a Chevy

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

Buick is taking a gamble with its 2013 Encore. General Motors' near-luxury brand has enjoyed great success attracting conquest buyers to its larger Enclave crossover, but it has never offered something quite like this small CUV.
Very early signs suggest that the gamble might be working. According to Mark Reuss, President of General Motors, the automaker expected about 1,500 initial orders from its dealers for the Encore, but it's tracking closer to 9,000 units. Alluding to the fact that historically, Buick has shared similar products with GM's other brands, Reuss says that Buick dealers are "thrilled to have an exclusive." The automaker already markets almost identical models in other markets as the Opel/Vauxhall Mokka and Chevrolet Trax, but The General's other brands won't offer a twin to the new baby Buick.
The new Encore is based on the Gamma architecture that underpins the Chevrolet Sonic, and it shares the economy car's available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine. With standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive, GM says its Encore will be pitted against competitors like the BMW X1 and Audi Q3, both of which are much more expensive but also much more powerful.
