up for sale is a 1963 buick electra this car has not ran in a long time but was parked in a temp controled warhouse and let sit for a long time. I was told the last time the car ran was around 1982. As you can see the car is in great shape. The reason  bought the car was because of the black interior. notice this is a nearly all options car and has lived in the south its entire life the viynal top Is most of the pain on the car is original. i am going to say the motor is stuck but i do not know if it is or not. you can put a battery in the car and all the power windows work. alot of stuff like that works this car was just parked and left. the story on the car is it was a rocket scientist car and he had several cars all with the same story he would drive them and just park them then he died and they all set until his wife died. you can look at these pictures and realize how original the car acuallty is it is bone stock except the wheels  which i put on the car because the wheels that where on it where still the old rope tread and 3 of the 4 where rotted out and did not have the hub caps. Here are the bad points. i have the pictured the damaged rear quarter which i have no idea about. i do not have and never have had a set of keys to the car so the motor may turn over but i doubt it. an since this is the state of Alabama and this is a 1963 car it has no title as titles where not required until 1973. the black interior in this car is beautiful as you can tell from the pics and this car has the wildcat style bucket type seats but is a colum shift this would be a great car to restore or a awesome parts car for a 2 door build up. the car has almost no rust issues every piece of metal is solid no serious oxidation. the car has dual exhaust. i have never looked in the trunk as i dont have the keys so jimmy hoffa may be in there. i will be more that happy to ansewer any questions you may have and you are free to call me after 5 central durring the week. 256-227-6451. good luck and happy bidding you must pick this car up or arrange a pick up i can deliver if you are close to me but you will need to pay me for my time. either way it is your resonsability to remove the car within 2 weeks of the purchase date but i can be flexable. 500.00 will be required within the first 48 hrs and the rest can be made before the car leaves the property within the 2 weeks. feel free to ask questions is needed good luck and good day.

OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.

Buick resurrects the Electra nameplate on a science fiction-like electric concept

Tue, Sep 29 2020

Buick plans to broaden its range of electric cars in the coming years, and it still owns the rights to the heritage-laced Electra nameplate, so it was only a matter of time before the past and the future met head-on. Buick resurrected the name it used between the 1959 and 1990 model years on a futuristic, battery-powered concept car. Created by a Shanghai-based design studio, the Electra concept takes the form of either a tall sedan or a low crossover, depending on your perspective. While it's not officially a preview of an upcoming production model, it ushers in a design language named Potential Energy that will permeate most of the electric cars the firm will release during the 2020s. It's inspired by a space capsule, according to Buick, so its greenhouse was drawn to resemble a glass pod. Its surfaces are sculpted but not chiseled, and its front fascia wears LED lights with a three-dimensional effect. Fear not: Stylists didn't forget the seemingly obligatory back-lit emblem. Butterfly doors provide access to the cabin, where the space capsule theme continues. Buick packed the Electra with cutting-edge technology features, but it concealed them rather well to avoid a tech overload. The driver faces a rectangular steering wheel that retracts when it's not needed, behind which is a wide, curved screen that replaces all of the buttons, knobs, and switches normally found in a car's interior. An electric motor is far more compact than a comparable four- or six-cylinder engine, so designers were able to carve out a generously sized interior. Engineers embedded technology into the Electra from the project's earliest stage. It's equipped with software named eConnect that supports over-the-air updates, provides on-demand information about a specific trip, and gives details about the various electronic driving aids. An artificial intelligence-powered assistant lets users perform various tasks, such as setting the air conditioning or controlling home devices, with voice commands. Buick noted the Electra offers about 410 miles of driving range thanks in part to the Ultium battery technology developed by General Motors to power a wide selection of electric models, including the Cadillac Lyriq, the GMC Hummer, and a pair of Honda-badged models scheduled to go on sale for the 2024 model year.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
