1964 Buick LeSabre 355 Wildcat Engine

 

This Buick LeSabre is a great car. It has 72,000 miles.  4 doors without pillars, great for open window cruising.  It is 100% original.   Everything is totally stock.  I would like to call it a barn find since it came from the 2nd owner who just drove it for fun.  I will rate the condition good for a 50 year old car.

 

This is a great start for a Rat Rod or Lowrider or great Summer Classic Cruiser.

 

There are only a couple small spots of rust in normal places – at bottom of front fenders and a small spot at bottom fear fender.   Any other rust is only surface rust.   The car has mostly original paint.  I say that because the rooftop is original patina in deep blue.  The bottom of the car is original paint on top half.  It appears the bottom half was repainted some.  There is no rust at all on the pillars, floor boards, trunk, and window areas or around critical structure areas.  The floorboards are really clean.

 

The body on all the lines is straight.  The doors show dings and a couple dents which seem to have been pushed back out, but there is no break or rust in the metal.   The rear bumper does need to be replaced.  The original owner was elderly and bumped a few things which are why the doors and rear bumper show the dings and dents.  Bottom line is the cars body is a great place to start for a restore or touch it up to drive it like it is.

 

The 355 Wildcat Engine runs good and can drive reasonable distances right now. This was the year they went back to a cast iron block with aluminum heads and intake.  It will need a water pump which I will replace.  It also needs an exhaust system and just has cheater duals on it for now.  This way you can pick the kind of exhaust you want.  Power Steering, Power Brakes, 2 speed transmission all work great.

 

Almost every function on the car seems to work.  The windows work great. The wing windows easily. The doors close smooth and solid.  All the rubber is in good to great shape.  The trunk weather stripping is in great shape.  The hood padding underneath is in great shape as well.  The electronics, turn signals, windshield wipers – even the squirters work and has a backup glass water bottle under the hood.

 

The interior is also in great shape, appears original and good looking.  There are two minor tears in the seats but not in the seating area.  The original carpet is exceptionally clean.  All the interior door panels are in real good shape but the driver’s panel needs a little attention to put the vinyl in place at the very bottom.

 

The issues I see that need attention are, the exhaust, carb should be rebuilt or replaced to be more efficient, heater core is disconnected and may need replacing, door body panels are not perfect, and will need new tires to be road trustworthy.

 

This is a great car to invest in.  We bought it to use to promote our business, but we have to reduce our projects.  You can have a cool car, rat rod, lowrider or anything you want to make of it.

 

I am asking $4,500 or best offer.  If you’re short on cash, I can take a credit card for payment since I bought this to use for my business promotion.

 

Possible delivery may be an option to certain parts of the country for a reasonable cost.

Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.

Watch this phantom Buick drive itself down the highway in a snow storm

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Years ago, General Motors used Buick cars to test out the idea of a "smart highway" concept. More recently, GM has been talking up its award-winning Super Cruise semi-autonomous technology that will roll out with Cadillac and make its way to Buick. The LeSabre in the video above has nothing to do with any of that.
On Interstate 15 in Utah, a man driving this LeSabre got into an accident that rearranged the front end and set the horn on permanent blare. At the time of writing this, no one is sure what happened next, but the man ended up sitting in the snow in the highway median while his car carried on down the highway without him. Passing traffic stayed well to the right.
The 51-second video below provides a different take on our autonomous future. A local newscast on KUTV covered the story the evening of the incident, but the Utah Highway Patrol didn't have any update on the fate of the LeSabre. We'll take that to mean that Buick's take on Christine could still be out on the prowl... so watch out!

Buick celebrates 110 years by naming most significant model of each decade

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

In May of 1903, Buick began work on its first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, the first example of which was sold to a doctor in Flint, Michigan. That first sale was appropriate since later on, Buick became known as a "doctor's car." The Model B is the first of 11 cars chosen by Buick to highlight each decade of the company's 110-year history.
The 1916 D-45 Touring with a six-cylinder engine was Buick's highest seller that year, and helped push overall sales past six figures for the first time, making Buick the top-selling automotive brand. In 1931, Series 50 got an eight-cylinder engine, which helped the company survive the Great Depression. The 1936 Century was the first Buick that could hit 100 miles per hour, the 1949 Roadmaster had a supporting role in Rain Man, the 1953 Skylark had Italian wire wheels and the owner's name engraved on its steering wheel.
Then we have the iconic 1963 Riviera, the V6-powered 1975 Regal, and in 1987, the legendary GNX. With a turbocharged, intercooled V6 pumping out 276-horsepower it could hit 60 mph in just 4.6 seconds. In 1999 Buick built the first car in China, the Century, and that country remains the brand's largest market.
