1964 Buick Lesabre Sport Coupe - Low Mileage Survivor - 300 V8 4bbl Carb on 2040-cars
Hemet, California, United States
|
This Buick was well taken care of by a couple here in Hemet. The owner was a proud member of the Buick Club of America and a local chapter director. That being said they babied this vehicle even after his wife passed and he could no longer drive. Always garaged (since 1985) this vehicle was sold new here in Hemet. Eugene purchased it on 1-23-1985 with 81,457 miles and as of this posting it now has only 84,873 miles. On 12-13-2002 the transmission was rebuilt at 84,737 miles. So here is how the numbers break down, 3,416 miles since purchase, 136 miles since transmission rebuild, and of those miles 55 were in the last month getting it ready to sell. Eugene passed away in 2013 and I (Sheldon MacPherson 951-658-8444) am assisting his sister (Executrix of his estate) with the sale of his pride and joy. I knew Eugene and his wife as fellow BCA members and vehicle events since 1986 when I came to Hemet. They both worked in dealership parts departments, not the same one, and enjoyed the hobby of collecting Buicks. This 1964 is the last of their collection. I have put a few of the 55 miles on the car myself, taking pictures and finding out how the vehicle performs before listing here. The engine, Wildcat 355, runs super quiet and has good acceleration due to having the High Output 300 cu in engine with 4 bbl carburetor and 11:1 compression ratio. The good news is this combination with the Switch Pitch "300" transmission gets good mileage for all the comfort and style one enjoys with a Buick. Inside and out the 50 year old Buick is a joy to drive and show. The paint appears to be original with only very small rocker repair on the right rear just ahead of the rear tire. It probably was done at the dealership before being purchased in 85 but I have no way of knowing. There is just a slight amount of bondo showing if you look up closely to the bottom of the vehicle, other than that just very minor paint chips which have been touched up. Not a perfect #1 car but a strong 2 to very high 3 with and interior that looks almost new. Eugene had floor mats on top of floor mats to protect his show mats (note pictures). What you cannot see in the pictures is the beautiful detail on the white crest in the center of the front and rear mats. The one matching set is just like new and even smelled like they were just unwrapped. The car comes with factory shop manuals, sales literature, salesman information, transmission rebuild information, temporary registration from purchase in 1985, owner's manual, and original matching numbers protection plan manual with plate. If you have any questions please feel free to call and please leave a message if I am not at home. My email address is s.macpherson@verizon.net and I have several more pictures, 56 total, and would be happy to help in any way. |

Lexus LC 500 dominates 2016 EyesOn Design Awards
Wed, Jan 13 2016The Lexus LC 500 captured top honors for the best-designed production car and the best interior at the 10th annual EyesOn Design awards at the Detroit Auto Show. The awards are handed out by the Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology. The Buick Avista won the concept car category, just as its four-door predecessor, the Avenir, did last year. Other winners this year included the Chrysler Pacifica, which won for the best-designed production "truck" (as crossovers and minivans are sometimes categorized), and the Audi H-Tron Quattro, which won for the best concept truck. The Acura Precision concept was also recognized for its "innovative use of color, graphics, and materials." And the new Volvo S90 was singled out for its human-machine interface. The panel of jurists this year included designers from an array of automakers and art schools. Several past honorees for the organization's LifeTime Design Achievement Award participated in the voting, including GM's Wayne Cherry, BMW DesignworksUSA founder Chuck Pelly, Hyundai's Peter Schreyer, and Jack Telnack (formerly of Ford). Telnack also served on the select panel of chief judges this year, alongside Chris Chapman from Hyundai, Dave Marek from Acura, and Stewart Reed from the Art Center College of Design. Lexus Takes 2 and Buick Wins Best Concept For 2nd Year at EyesOn Design Awards at NAIAS January 12, 2016, Detroit, Michigan.

2017 Buick Encore freshens up for the New York Auto Show
Thu, Feb 25 2016Buick is dressing up the 2017 Encore for spring – specifically the New York Auto Show – where the compact crossover is expected to strut its stuff. The freshening follows the playbook of the Chevy Trax, which was also updated with a light hand. Though it keeps its familiar shape, sort of like an oversized Pontiac Vibe, the Encore gets Buick's new grille. It's a simple look with the wings bisecting the brand's tri-shield, and it calls to mind Buick's iconic front ends from yesteryear. You might remember it from the Avenir and Avista concepts. There are also new headlights. They look stolen from Audi, and it's an attention-getting gaze for the new face of the Encore. There will likely be new wheel packages, too. We can't see inside the Encore. Spy photographers couldn't get close enough to this Buick shoot in Southern California. But, we expect the interior to also mirror the Trax enhancements, which included a new instrument panel, gauges, materials, and infotainment. The Encore shares underpinnings with the Trax and Opel Mokka. We expect the Encore to arrive in late summer.
