1986 Buick Regal T Type 3.8l Grand National on 2040-cars
Howell, Michigan, United States
Up for sale is my 1986 Buick T-Type. The car is in great condition. Paint is beautiful. I would rate it a 8.5-9 out of 10. New Spoolfool rear fiberglass bumper filler professionally painted to perfect match. Fronts were existing and in great shape. The interior is almost perfect. A couple little almost non visual marks. Back seat appears to almost never been sat in. I would rate the interior a strong 9 out of 10. T-Tops are like normal. Rattly. Did not notice any leaks as I have only washed it a couple of times. Everything but the AC works. It may only need a charge I suspect? Compressor kicks in like it wants to run but stops like it is low on charge. Have not spent a ton of time getting to work. Now to the drive train. Engine has just been professionally overhauled completely. Top of the line everything. Cometic head gaskets, ARP bolts, other Fel-pro gaskets, etc.. Engine has less than 700 miles on it since rebuild. I have not even given the car full throttle. Still want to break in a little more before doing so. I have not even adjusted boost up yet. Currently low boost until motor breaks in more. Motor should be able to handle 16-18 psi of boost with no problem. Engine is pretty much stock except for a few upgrades. Thrasher ECM chip, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, HV fuel pump with hot wire kit, adjustable waste gate and cold air intake. Turbo was replaced by previous owners along with rebuilt transmission at approximately 82,xxx miles. Prior to purchasing almost 2 years ago the previous owners also had brakes, shocks, and new springs installed. A lot of money has been invested between myself and previous owners to get this car to the beautiful state it is into today. I have a lot of receipts I can share if you want to see the car in person. I have described this car to the best of my ability honestly. I would highly recommend coming to see in person if possible. Car is way worth the value asking. No disappointments. Feel free to contact by phone if you would like to ask more questions. I would be more than happy to describe more. Ph. (734) 649-5593. Thanks for looking.

GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design
Sat, Jun 6 2015General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI.

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades
Sun, 21 Apr 2013Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
Junkyard Gem: 1992 Buick Century Woodie station wagon
Mon, Oct 9 2017The Detroit station wagon with fake-wood exterior paneling had a good long postwar run, but minivans and — increasingly — sport utility vehicles were giving such wagons quite a beating in the showrooms by 1992. Buick was down to just two woodies by 1992; here's a discarded example of the front-wheel-drive Century, spotted in a Northern California self-service yard. Buick sold big rear-wheel-drive Roadmaster wagons with Simu-Wood™ siding through the 1996 model year, but the smaller Century was fairly plush. American car shoppers didn't insist on real-looking "wood" on their wagons, although Chrysler went much more three-dimensional with their plastic wood that did GM during this era. This one has the 3.3-liter Buick V6 engine, rated at 160 horsepower. This is not to be confused with the unrelated GM 60° V6, which was available in earlier and later Centuries. If only these seats could talk, they'd tell many tales of sibling battles and spilled fast food. Related Video:
