Rust Free Southern Car, T-tops, Power Locks, Windows And Driver's Seat on 2040-cars
Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
Up for sale is a 1987 Buick Grand National. It has 141k miles but is in very good condition given the mileage. It has factory T-Tops and power locks and windows. It is in good, rust free condition but has small scratches and paint chips. The car spent most of its life in Florida, then North Carolina, which is where I bought it from. It looks good, but I would consider it to be a 5-10 footer. I planned on getting it painted to bring it to "show quality" condition but given my current priorities, I won't be able to do that for a long time, which is why I'm selling it. I will miss it dearly. It is in good mechanical condition and has been well maintained. It runs perfectly, is a comfortable cruiser and is fast too! I had the air conditioning serviced/charged last year and it worked great, but after sitting, it's not cooling again, so it must have a slow leak. There are a host of new or newer performance upgrades (listed below) that were chosen to improve the performance without affecting normal drivability in any way. I've included some photos, I can take more if you'd like. I will include everything below plus a big box of stock parts. -----I will be adding more photos in the next day or two----- Body / Exterior Stock exterior with T-Tops Rear X braces Tinted windows Engine / Transmission Stock 3.8 liter V6 engine 60 lb/hr fuel injectors TurboTweak chip Comp Cams 980 valve springs RJC Power Plate H&R PartsNstuff motor mounts Precision Stock Location Intercooler Walbro high pressure in-tank fuel pump with rewire kit Accufab rising rate fuel pressure regulator Hallman ES manual boost controller AlkyControl progressive alcohol injection system using a Coolingmist VC-II Controller LS1 Mass Airflow Sensor & MAF Translator K&N air filter with 3" intake pipe Precision TE-44 Turbocharger GBodyParts.com 3" downpipe. 2.5" Hooker cat-back exhaust system Custom flanged off-road pipe Rebuilt transmission with shift improver kit PTC 10 inch 2800rpm lockup torque converter B&M Supercooler transmission cooler Metco driveshaft loop Stock, rebuilt posi-traction rear differential New F-body radiator, 160 degree thermostat radiator hoses and G-Body parts silicone coolant hoses Many other small maintenance items like brakes, spark plugs, fuel filter, new vacuum lines, valve cover gaskets, etc. Interior ScanMaster 2.1 Innovate wideband O2 sensor Coolingmist VC-II digital progressive alcohol injection controller/boost gauge Wheels/Tires Suspension 16x8 American Racing "GNX style" black mesh/chrome wheels Kuhmo ECSTA Tires KYB shocks 2" drop front spindles UMI Performance upper and lower rear control arms Also have stock GN wheels with new street tires in the front and new Mickey Thompson Drag Radials in the rear (see pictures) Thanks for viewing and let me know if you have any questions.

Small number of 2013 Buick Encore models recalled for loose steering wheel
Thu, 04 Apr 2013General Motors has issued a recall and a stop sale for the 2013 Buick Encore due to an issue that could result in the steering wheel falling off on certain models. In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM says that 144 Encores equipped with heated steering wheels could have been incorrectly retrofitted due to a parts shortage.
Needless to say, a loose or separated steering wheel would likely cause an accident if it happened while the vehicle was in motion. The recall doesn't go into effect until April 12, but concerned Encore owners can use the official recall notice (attached below) to contact GM.
Opel readying Adam model with SUV cues
Fri, 11 Oct 2013The Opel Adam, the microcar of General Motors' European subsidiary, has seen its sales cool significantly since it first hit the market in the United Kingdom and Europe, but a push is reportedly under way that just might be enough to get the stylish, little car moving again.
Using the Opel Adam Rocks Concept as a template, Opel will ruggedize the Adam, so that it might compete with the growing herd of city cars that sport SUV styling, like the Volkswagen Cross Up and Fiat Panda 4x4, according to a report from Automotive News Europe. Sporting a bumped-up ride height and tougher body work, it's a dedicated soft-roader, but will freshen the Adam's lineup and, hopefully, broaden its customer appeal.
The Adam Rocks, according to IHS Automotive analyst Ian Fletcher, should also make some more coin for GM's struggling European arm. "Automakers are happy to meet demand for SUV and crossovers as the customer pays a premium," Fletcher told ANE. And although the Rocks might have been planned from the start as a production vehicle, the timing, with the Adam's sales slowdown, doesn't seem like a coincidence.
GM offering factory-backed extended warranty for Chevys, GMCs, Buicks and Cadillacs
Mon, Oct 15 2018Cars are generally more reliable than ever before. When things do go wrong, every automaker offers some form of factory warranty (in most cases at least three years and 36,000 miles, though many extend even longer), providing peace of mind to new-car buyers that many faults will be fixed at no charge to the customer. Starting today, GM is offering a new optional plan that will extend the factory warranty on all new Chevy, GMC, Buick and Cadillac products. In the past, extended warranties have been offered as dealer add-ons, with all profits from these sales going to the dealership. GM's new program can be viewed as another nail in the the looming dealership-model coffin. According to Automotive News, some dealers aren't happy to see GM cut into their business like this, saying that it helps GM far more than it does dealers. GM says the new program will help keep customers in the GM family. Customers are also more likely to visit a GM service center rather than going to an independent repair shop. Currently, new Chevy and GMC vehicles come with three-year/36,000-mile warranties. Buicks and Cadillacs are covered for 4 years or 50,000 miles. The new program extends Chevy and GMC warranties to five years or 60,000 miles. Buick and Cadillac warranties extend to six years or 70,000 miles. GM, citing IHS Markit, says most owners keep new cars for about 6.8 years, so these warranties will cover most of the length of their ownership. The extended warranty will add between $1,000 and $2,000 to the price of a vehicle, and the additional cost can be rolled into the vehicle's purchase or lease price. Unlike many dealer extensions, the factory program covers the vehicle no matter who owns it. That should help increase the car's resale value if it's sold within the covered timeframe. GM says there's no deductible and no need to file a claim form when getting warranty repairs. Additionally, dealerships can continue to sell their own extended warranties or service contracts.
