Restored about 10 years ago, over $25k in receipts. New paint, top, interior including leather inserts in the seats, as it was from the factory. Almost all chrome redone. All mechanical work that was needed was done- things like suspension, steering, exhaust. Engine and trans are original and running great. 401 Nailhead, Turbohydramatic trans. Fully tuned up last year, always garaged since restoration. Won its class in some local car shows, was featured in the Washington Times "Out of the Past" column. Much attention paid to details- clock works, AM radio converted so it has FM. P/W, P/Seat, Tilt wheel, A/C (compressor engages but system has a refrig leak), P/Antenna. Trunk completely redone using correct material. Engine compartment body was painted when car was repainted, the rest is original but cleaned and in very nice original condition. Even has the "Wildcat Power" sticker on the air cleaner housing. Comes with all records of repairs done during the restoration, and photos showing the work that was done. I will also throw in a shop manual.

This car is quite stunning in person, and draws a crowd wherever it goes. Correct bronze mist metallic looks super sharp, the chrome glistens, the glass is free from scratches or pitting. All gauges work, and I added water temp and oil pressure gauges to keep a more accurate eye on things.

I have taken this car on some 200+ mile roundtrips without a hitch. Yes, she has a good appetite for fuel, but loves the open road and is the fastest full sized car I have ever owned. The 401 Nailhead is a legendary Buick motor that puts out 325 hp and 445 lb/feet of torque. It makes maximum torque at pretty low rpms, which is why these engines were popular in drag racing cars back in the 1960s. This is also the first year that Buick had the Hydramatic trans- what I think is a nice improvement from the somewhat lazy Dynaflow.

There are comparably lots of '64 Rivieras around, but this car is rare. I have seen a few '64 Electras at car shows or in the Hershey car corral, but they have always been sedans. The Sport Coupe, with its standard leather buckets and center console, is far more unique.

So channel your inner Don Draper- with Mad Men just starting a new season, this is a fine example of American car building at its best during the Mad Men era.

Amazing car!!

Opel Cascada close to getting green light for US

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

For a company with a long tradition of grand touring convertibles, it's almost unseemly that General Motors doesn't offer a properly relaxed four-seat convertible in North America. There's the Chevrolet Camaro, of course, but it's not big on rear-seat space and it doesn't offer that sort of serene demeanor that many open-air buyers crave. We're thinking of something more refined and, dare we say, elegant. Something a bit closer to the Opel Cascada.
The General's front-wheel drive convertible went on sale in Europe this year, and while it seemed like a natural fit for its Buick brand in America, it's never been sold here. That may be about to change, however. Back in June, CEO Dan Akerson hinted he'd like to see the Cascada available in the US, and now there's word from Edmunds that importation "could happen soon." That's according to an unnamed insider at the company.

No, Cadillac is not killing its flagship CT6 sedan

Sat, Jul 22 2017

Mark Twain never actually said that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. But if the Cadillac CT6 could talk, those are the exact words it would use. Speaking to Jalopnik, Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen confirmed, emphatically, "There is absolutely no plan, at all, to cancel the CT6." In fact, says de Nysschen, the CT6 will soon be the beneficiary of significant investment. "The [CT6] forms a very important part of our product strategy going forward for the brand. The car also has a very major contribution to make to the shaping of brand perceptions, and the transformational process that Cadillac is undergoing." For instance, expect the CT6 to spearhead General Motors' most advanced forays into self-driving automobile technology. Interestingly, though, the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans probably won't live past their current generations as the automaker 're-balances its sedan portfolio.' Replacement models are "in development" right now, says de Nysschen, which will "much more clearly separate the market position, both in terms of target customer demographics, in terms of market segments and in terms of price points between these three sedan lineups." So, that's confirmation that the Cadillac CT6 is going to stick around for a while. But what of other models cited by Reuters to potentially be killed, like the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala and Volt? Read our take on that here, but suffice it to say that we don't think they're in danger, either.

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades

Sun, 21 Apr 2013

Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
