US $24,000.00
Year:1991
Mileage:8569
Location:
Haughton, Louisiana, United States

This auction is for a 1991 Buick Reatta
convertible in mint condition. No
scratches, no dings. It only has 8,569
miles. It has new Michelin tires with
less than 500 miles on them. It has a
new Optima battery. The A/C has been
professionally converted to 134A refrigerant.
It comes with a custom car cover.
The original radio stopped working, so we replaced it with a GM factory
radio with CD player and equalizer. It
was a plug and play installation, so no wires were cut, and it sounds
awesome. As you can see from the
picture, the LED on the radio matches the other dash display perfectly. We’ll include the original non-working radio
in case you want to put it back to stock. The Buick Reatta
is a sport coupe designed by GM which was powered by a 3.8 liter V6. It was the
first car Buick advertised as a two-seater since the 1940 Buick model 46. It
was a handmade luxury sports coupe produced at the Lansing Craft Centre in
Lansing, Michigan and sold by the Buick division of American automaker General
Motors from early 1988 to 1991. Like the Cadillac Allant?, it was based on a
shortened version of the GM E platform used by the Cadillac Eldorado,
Oldsmobile Toronado and particularly the Buick Riviera, with which it shared
many mechanical parts, advanced electronics, and interior furnishings. The Reatta sported its own unique body style and was crafted with an attention to hand finishing uncommon for a mass-produced automobile. The assembly was performed at a small series of craft stations - each with a specialized team of workers, rather than a conventional assembly line. After a team had completed their portion of the assembly, the car would be moved by robots to the next station in the series. All of the paintwork was subcontracted to PPG Industries personnel - who performed the work on site. Every Reatta included a leather book containing the owner's manual and pen. In 1990 and 1991, a zippered owner’s folio was included. In addition to the owner’s manual, it also contained a "Craftsman's Log" with the signatures of the supervisors for the assembly of the car at the various craft stations.These slightly unusual items were an attempt to sell the mass-produced car as one built with individual care. This auction includes this owner’s folio. Also included is the original window sticker and a brochure for 1991 Buick cars and a CD about the Buick Reatta. This car was 1 of only 305 convertibles manufactured during the last year of production for the Reatta. This car comes from a smoke-free home and has been kept covered, in a garage. In my honest opinion, this car would satisfy any collector or someone looking for a new car. This car is being sold, as is, without a warranty. Shipping (both arranging and cost) is the responsibility of the Buyer. Local pickup is available. Upon completion of the auction, a deposit of $500 is due within 2 business days. Remainder of the purchase price is due within 7 days from close of auction. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please feel free to contact us. |

Repo man pays off elderly couple's car just in time for Thanksgiving
Mon, Nov 28 2016Repo men get bad raps for a good reason; no one likes having their car taken away. At least one guy in the repossession game proved folks in his profession aren't all bad when he helped an elderly couple hold on to their wheels right before Thanksgiving. According to the Belleville News-Democrat, unexpected bills and the rising cost of prescription medications pushed Stanford and Patty Kipping's fixed income to the breaking point. Unable to keep up with the $95 dollar a month payment on their 1998 Buick, they fell into arrears and the bank sent a repo man out to their home in Red Bud, Illinois to reclaim the car. Jim Ford, co-owner of Illini Recovery Inc., hooked up the old Buick and dragged it away, but later that night his conscience caught up with him. "When I got home that night, I said to myself, 'They are a real nice elderly couple. I gotta do something. I can't just take their car,'" Ford told the News-Democrat. Ford did do something, something surprisingly humane. He set up a GoFundMe and, within just a few short hours, he raised more than $3,500 dollars. This was enough money to pay off the Kipping's loan with a little left over for some maintenance. Ford and a friend then hooked the car back up and towed it back to the Kipping's home. Ford presented the couple with their trusty Buick, and threw in a thousand dollars in an envelope and a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving. "It was a miracle come true," Patty told the paper. "We didn't know what we were going to do." "I got up this morning and I looked up at the sun and I said, 'I hope we get our car back,'" added Stanford. "It's just unbelievable."Related Video: News Source: Belleville News-Democrat Auto News Weird Car News Buick repossession repo man

New GM subcompact SUV spied, could be a Chevy or GMC
Mon, Aug 13 2018GM's pair of subcompact crossovers have been trundling along for a while now. The Buick Encore was the first for Americans in the 2013 model year, and the Chevy Trax that was based on the Encore (an encore of the Encore, if you will) arrived for the 2015 model year. Each has undergone a mild update, but these spy photos could indicate their replacements are in the works. Or not. For starters, we can't be sure which GM brand this new SUV is destined for. Though the timing and its flowing lines could indicate Buick, the thick horizontal bars visible in the grille would indicate otherwise. The next Encore being at least related to this is at least a possibility. Making the case for GMC are those thick grille bars, the fact that it extends far below the lights, and may even rise above them, similar to the Acadia. And that rising beltline isn't that different from that of the Acadia. Arguing against the GMC idea is the Encore, which is almost always sold in GMC-Buick combo dealers. Much as the Acadia was made smaller to eliminate confusion and in-house competition with the Enclave, it's hard to see GM opting to resurrect such an issue at the bottom end of the SUV market. That means we're leaning toward this little SUV wearing a Chevy bowtie. The split grille with a large lower section and small upper section is the brand's current design language, as seen on the new Malibus and Cruzes. The shape is vaguely Equinox-like. And like Buick, Chevy also has a subcompact crossover ready for replacement: the Trax. Now, our photographer reports he's seen another subcompact testing that has Blazer design cues, but in this crossover-hungry market, we wouldn't be surprised if two similarly sized but differently styled Chevy crossovers make the grade. It's a strategy that's working pretty well for Jeep. We'll no doubt be seeing more of these disguised test vehicles milling about the country in the coming months, so perhaps we'll eventually get a better idea of what this is before more official information starts trickling out within one or two years.
