Hello ebayers - WE WILL DELIVER UP TO 250 MILES BY FLATBED SERVICE ( INCLUDED ) ITEM LOCATION ZIP 11554
We came across this Buick Century Station Wagon at a local shop that we go to for regular service. It was previously from a Estate Auction a while back. One of the employees from the shop Gave me the Buicks entire history and it was Quite Interesting. From what I understand, Its spent its entire life in Long Island New york. It was Purchased new from Hagstrom Buick, In Huntington, NY in May 1977. When I opened the glove box I found Many records including the window sticker. Even Inspection Certificates dating back to 1993, and its safe to say that the odometer has only turned once, and the miles that it has on it in connection with the inspection reciepts its also save to say this station wagon was lightly used.
We Purchased this Vehicle because we operate a delivery business. Delivering small packages locally in the town we reside in and we figured it would be cool to deliver to our customers in a classic car in great condition from the 70s. However, this is a NON A/C car. We were qouted with a price on how much it would be to put air conditioning in the vehicle and after some shopping around we decided that it just was not in our favor to have that done. Some ofthe products we deliver require climate control, and with the hot weather on the way this simply does not work out. The Buick has a V8 6.6L Carburated engine with a turbo 400 Transmission and a posi rear. The shop I purchased it from installed a rebuilt carburator, a New radiator , new power steering lines and 4 new tires. the car starts up everytime. and has some power behind it. Everything works on this car, even down to the original radio. It has power windows, Rear defrost am-fm radio and a power bench seat. A nice option i think it has is there is a set of rear seats in the way back of the car that comes out of the floor and holds 2 passengers facing the rear of the vehicle. I sat 8 people comfortably in this car just to try it out. Some may be interested in this classic wagon for parts or for its drivetrain or some may want it for nostalic reasons. Im sorry to see this car go but it serves no purpose to us. Im setting this listing as a auction with a reserve.. if you have any other questions please contact me directly, ill be more then happy to answer. Happy bidding VEHICLE DAMAGE - Someone once repaired the drivers side foam part of the dash, they used the wrong color vinyl paint or dye. It doenst look terrible, and it is small. - The Drivers side of the bench seat has some rips in the bottom part of the seat. The interior and exterior are in great shape for its age, and please expect some minor scratches and interior fade on panels " its a 1977 car".. any detailed questions please ask us , we want to fully disclose and answer any questions you may have. |

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.
GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar
Wed, 03 Sep 2014There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
