This Buick Wildcat was aquired 5 years ago from the second owners They had owned the car since it was only 4 years old. It was built in California, sold in California when new and has lived all its  life in California before being brought locally here to WA about a decade ago. This is one of those rare condition survivors… a very solid California car, very well taken care of, actual low miles & always well maintained. It has a vintage TOW PACKAGE for you vintage trailer or boat collectors, with heavy duty setup that can tow full sized loads with lots of power and 445 lbs. of torque.

I have had it professionally repainted the factory SURF GREEN metallic paint, in a high quality 2-stage with clear coat paint done by a local shop noted for show cars. The body was ground down to bare metals, all little dents removed for flawless final paint. The paint was a difficult match to get the actual original metallic color of the Surf Green. The final result was stunning! The Surf Green has lots of metallic, and deep silver to a touch of gold hues when the sun hits it. The photos do not do it justice.  I have also recently had the interior fully redone at a professional upholstery shop that also does show quality cars. All new quality OEM padded loop carpets that exactly matched the factory color, professionally reupholstered interior using the very highest quality of materials, a thick Buick Surf Green with cream vinyl pleated inserts. The car also has a new professionally installed OEM textured headliner in off white.

This Buick Special runs and drives very nicely. It has lots of power, handles and drives easily and shifts cleanly through the gears. The factory & numbers matching big block 401 Nailhead V8 engine has had a prior rebuild, with not many miles on it coupled with its fully redone GM Buick 3-speed automatic transmission. The 4-V Nailhead is called the “445” due to the amazing 445 lbs of torque it produces. You can see by the photos that the original air cleaner and all parts under the hood are amazing condition. From the newer radiator, to newer battery, to all new hoses, tune up and belts this car is in top mechanical condition. This is one of those rare cars that will always fire right up, runs smooth and strong and can take you across the country without hesitation. I have had this car on weekend road trips, full freeway speeds and road cruising well over 70mph and this car is amazing. I elected to keep the vintage heavy duty tow package on the car, with hopes of someday having a tear drop vintage trailer to match. Car has the internal adjustable drivers side mirror, full power brakes and power steering… all in good condition. I am a Buick collector and have put later model Buick Rally wheels on the car. I have not yet replaced them back with the original 15” Wildcat rims, which have beautiful new quality all weather whitewall radials. These will be put back on the car with the rare set of mint condition factory Wildcat hubcaps. The second set is available to buyer if desired. Original spare and jack assemblies still in the car. This is a very early production & RARE 2-dr HT Wildcat in surf green!

All exterior chrome are shiny and excellent stainless trims. This car would make a great “Low Rider” or keep stock for weekend car shows, cruisin town or family fun. It always gets a “thumbs up” … “cool car” or “nice car!” wherever it goes. AN INVESTMENT QUALITY & Weekend "SHOW & GO" car that you can drive anywhere & enjoy

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.

Buick to use Velite name for its Cascada?

Mon, Dec 1 2014

Ever since Opel brought out the Cascada convertible last year, rumors have been flying that Buick would offer it Stateside – much like it does with the Insignia-based Regal and the Astra-based Verano. And now we might have our best clue yet as to what Buick might call it. According to GM Authority, General Motors has filed to use the name Velite on a new model. The name first appeared on a convertible concept unveiled over a decade ago at the 2004 New York Auto Show (pictured above), but GM reportedly opened an application to trademark the nameplate for production in 2011, seeking extensions on its application every six months since. Of course the fact that it's applied for its fifth extension (of a permissible six) doesn't necessarily mean that GM will ultimately bring the cabriolet to US showrooms, or that it will use the Velite name if it does, but the fact that GM is keeping the name alive could be a good sign. The market for relaxed four-seat convertibles has been shrinking, leaving it up to drop-top muscle cars like the Chevy Camaro and Ford Mustang. But with entries like the Toyota Camry Solara, Volkswagen Eos and Chrysler 200 Convertible having dropped off the market, the Buick Velite (or Cascada, or whatever it's ultimately called) could have the sedate cabriolet segment all to itself – even if (or especially if) Lexus dealers aren't interested in touching it.

2020 Buick Encore, Encore GX set for Shanghai debut

Tue, Apr 2 2019

Buick says it will debut the all-new 2020 Encore small crossover and new-for-China Encore GX compact crossover at the Buick Brand Night April 15 in Shanghai on the eve of Auto Shanghai 2019. They'll join the updated 2020 LaCrosse and LaCrosse Avenir sedans, which GM is discontinuing here in the U.S. Buick released a darkened teaser image of both vehicles in rear three-quarters view, though it's a little hard to tell which is which (we're going with the GX being the one on the right). It suggests the Encore gets more streamlined taillights that taper along the rear liftback, with some redesigned creases on the door panels and haunches. The latter don't appear to be present on the Encore GX, which Buick says is a new addition to the model series in China. Both will be offered with GM's new nine-speed Hydra-Matic and continuously variable transmissions, plus what Buick says will be "enhanced connectivity," including new technologies. They'll join the Envision and Enclave for China, which is Buick's largest market. First introduced in 2013, The Encore was last refreshed for 2017. It has been the top-selling Buick model in the U.S. for the past 3 years, with 93,073 sold last year, up 5.7% from 2017.
