Up for bid is my Le Sabre which I owned for sixteen years.     Believe to be the third owner.         This a unrestored vehicle not doctored up for a quick sale.          Went from original purchaser to son in law to me.       Reason I'm selling is that I ran across a Dodge A100 just like the one I owned in the 70's.   The Buick is from Missouri,it has seen no snow or salt.I don't drive it even in the rain and hate the sun to shine on it.     It is a rust free no bondo no patch panel car.          Look at the pictures of the bottoms of the doors,trunk lid and door jams.Those are all original paint.      In my opinion, only exception is the hood,the color is not a great match,it's the way I got and hasn't bothered me that much or I would have had it redone.       It has the chrome factory rally rims with tires that have low miles on them.      Original R12 AC which blows very cold.               This is a true survivor!     Only changes are the 2 inch drop spindles that evens out the car stance and the new dual exhaust which is not loud but a nice mellow tone. New front pads and calipers when new spindles were installed.    I do have the original spindles that would come with the car.   I'm not trying to say this is a new car but it sure is a head turning driver.      I would rather have you surprised how nice it is rather than be disappointed by a untrue description.        It does have a few scratches a blemish or so but  no door dings except a small one on the rear wheel stainless trim piece.    The paint still shines very well.Interior is very nice and clean,no rips tears.        Non Smoker       Headliner is starting to come down,glue must of dried up,I do have headliner pins that would hold it up but it should be replaced. Do have new cylinders that hold the hood up in the open position.  Dash has no cracks and is not parched out,glass all good.      Runs Fantastic!!!           All trunk and door seals still very supple! Vinyl top not parched or ripped,there is a crack in the molding at the base of the roof,it's a small rubber piece probably still available.   A TRUE UNMOLESTED CAR!    Last of the big rear wheel drive Buick Le Sabre.   Look at the pics of the undercarriage,rust free.Not too many of these still around in this shape.Ready to cruise,you don't have to do anything to it if you don't want to!     Hope it goes to a good home!   Does come with a car cover.     The car is sold as is!!!!     Do not bid if you  DO NOT INTEND TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE PURCHASE.No International bids or shipping.Car will not be released until funds have cleared.Please if you are having this car shipped choose a reputable company,my van was delivered by a driving team that was like Cheech and Chong.I will not be responsible for their mishaps.I do reserve the right to cancel the sale at anytime.  Yes I am suspicious,seen it all. Will be happy to tell you more about the car if you like. 734 837 2966,I work midnights,you can leave a message if I miss your call.  More pictures available upon request or you are welcome to see it in person.  Thanks for looking!!!! George

Buick Blackhawk concept headed to auction block again

Tue, Jan 27 2015

While the collector car auction market is often criticized for inflating the price of vintage models out of the realm of affordability for many buyers, these sales do give us an opportunity to look back on some of the beautiful, rare designs of the past. Just take a glance at this Buick Blackhawk concept with a shape right out of the '40s or '50s. Despite the heritage styling, it was pieced together from older pieces for Buick to celebrate itself in the early 2000s With styling inspiration from the classic Buick Y-Job concept car, the Blackhawk mixes actual vintage components to create its curvaceous shape. However, the power retractable top is thoroughly modern being made from carbon fiber and stows in the deck lid when the roof needs to go down. After so much work on the outside, the Buick has something equally surprising under the hood. It's a 1970 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 GS Stage III V8 with a claimed 463 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque, and for easy cruising the mill is linked to a four-speed automatic. Built in-house by Buick, the Blackhawk was once part of the General Motors Heritage Fleet, but the automaker sold it off in 2009 at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ, along with many other members of the collection. The concept went for $522,500 after the buyer's premium, according to the auctioneers. Now, it's crossing the block again with no reserve as part of RM Auctions sale of the Andrews Collection on May 2, 2015, in Fort Worth, TX. The 75-car auction also includes highlights like one of seven 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica SWB Cabriolet models bodied by Pininfarina.

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk

Mon, 06 May 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.

General Motors posts record earnings, but global sales fall

Thu, Apr 21 2016

General Motors started the year with record success. The automaker's $2.7 billion in adjusted earnings before interest and taxes was its highest ever in in the first quarter of 2016, up from $2.1 billion in from the same time period a year earlier. Net income grew to $1.95 billion, which was more than double the $953 million in the same period last year. The company's figures also beat analysts' predictions, according to the Detroit Free Press. Despite the financial growth, global sales actually decreased by 2.5 percent to 2.36 million vehicles. "We're growing where it counts, gaining retail share in the US, outpacing the industry in Europe and capitalizing on robust growth in SUV and luxury segments in China," CEO Mary Barra said in the company's financial announcement. GM did well in North America with an adjusted EBIT of $2.3 billion, up from $2.2 billion last year. Sales in the region also grew 1.2 percent to 800,000 vehicles. According to The Detroit Free Press, the company has been especially successful at selling more expensive models in the US. The company's average vehicle was $34,600 in Q1, about $3,000 more than the industry average. Elsewhere in the world, GM also showed improvement. Europe practically broke even after losing about $200 million last year, and Opel and Vauxhall sales grew 8.4 percent to more than 300,000 vehicles for the quarter. South America only lost $100 million, which was half as much as Q1 2015's $200 million loss. China remained flat at $500 million of income. Cadillac volume jumped 6.1 percent there, and Buick's deliveries increased 22 percent, thanks to the Envision crossover's success. GM Reports First-Quarter Net Income of $2.0 Billion 2016-04-21 EPS diluted of $1.24; First-quarter record EPS diluted-adjusted of $1.26 First-quarter record EBIT-adjusted of $2.7 billion GM Europe posts break-even performance DETROIT – General Motors Co. (NYSE: GM) today announced first-quarter net income to common stockholders of $2.0 billion or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $0.9 billion or $0.56 per diluted share a year ago. Earnings per share diluted-adjusted for special items was a first-quarter record at $1.26, up 47 percent compared to the first quarter of 2015. The company set first-quarter records for earnings and margin, with earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) adjusted of $2.7 billion and EBIT-adjusted margin of 7.1 percent.
