1966 Riviera, Last Year Of 425 Nailhead, Incredible Teal Color, Mint, Runs Great on 2040-cars
Ridgefield, Connecticut, United States
Here's a wonderful 1966 Buick Riviera Hardtop coupe in pristine condition. It has the desirable Teal color that is as deep as the Caribbean sea, and is pretty near perfect! It spent 35 years up on blocks before being bought by an incredibly fussy and meticulous collector who then repainted it, and rebuilt the engine about 5000 miles ago. Engine is totally detailed, has working A/C, rebuilt AM/FM original radio, gorgeous black ribbed "tough as nails" vinyl interior, slight separation beginning in seam behind where the driver sits, mint headliner, power brakes, windows, steering and antenna, all working. All gauges work, power seats, etc.. Trunk is full of extra trim parts for this car, and the white-wall radial tires are practically new! Stunning car overall, and has won many trophies at car shows! A great cruiser, handles tight and like a dream. No play in the steering wheel, the suspension is wonderful and it handles beautifully. Engine sounds just like a real Buick should, especially with the final year of the "real" Buick engine, the big 425 Nailhead (465 Wildcat!) Undercarriage is mint, and totally factory. Never, EVER any rust anywhere, and no bodywork was ever needed for this baby! Radio was rebuilt and upgraded internally to modern standards, but the original appearance has been retained. If this is the car you're looking for, THIS is THE ONE you want!!! No disappointments..one of the best in the world, for sure! Give me a call to ask any questions, to take a test drive, or write me. Good luck! |

2014 Buick Regal priced from $29,690*
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Buick has announced pricing for the refreshed 2014 Regal. The base model offers a 2.0-liter, turbocharged, 259-horsepower, four-cylinder engine for $30,615 (*after $925 delivery and destination fee). The standard turbo can be replaced by Buick's eAssist mild hybrid system for $32,485. The electrified powertrain delivers 36 miles per gallon, in place of the turbo's 30 mpg on the highway.
The big powertrain news for 2014 is the inclusion of an all-wheel-drive system for an extra $2,175. Marking one of the few uses of all-wheel drive on a Buick car, the new Regal AWD has an electronic, limited-slip differential and a HiPer Strut front suspension, which is the same front arrangement used on the hot, front-drive Regal GS.
Speaking of the Regal GS, it's not so hot for 2014. It sports the same 259-horsepower engine as the standard Regal, but offsets that with a wealth of standard, optional or flat-out exclusive equipment like active dampers, Brembo brakes and a Bose stereo. Prices (all including the $925 fee) start at $37,830. Like the standard car, the GS will be available with all-wheel drive for the first time, bringing it a bit more in line with its cousins across the pond - Opel Insignia OPC and Vauxhall Insignia VXR. Prices for the GS AWD start at $40,195.
Buick Verano to go turbo-only for 2014?
Sat, 22 Dec 2012If VIN tags recently posted online prove accurate, the 2014 Buick Verano may be getting a new base engine. Presently the Verano makes use of GM's 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine in non-turbo trim; 2014 documentation appears to indicate that GM's entry-level luxury compact will instead feature a 1.6-liter turbocharged mill.
If this is the same engine seen in Europe, GM Inside News suggests it may offer 192 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque - useful improvements over the larger naturally aspirated mill's 180 hp and 171 lb-ft. More importantly, the downsized engine would likely improve on the Verano's current fuel mileage estimates of 21 city and 31 highway.
We like the Verano in both of its current iterations, but the 1.6 turbo engine sounds like a worthwhile upgrade if this reports turns out to be true. Plus, if more performance is your bag, baby, there's always the Verano's optional 2.0 turbo engine with an impressive 250 horsepower and 260 lb-ft from just 2.0 liters of displacement.
Malaise Era Junkyard Gem: 1979 Buick Electra Limited
Wed, Jun 22 2016In the fall of 1973, the Arab members of OPEC shut off the oil taps, and Detroit got busy making many of their full-sized land yachts a lot smaller. By model year 1977, the downsized fifth-generation Buick Electra was ready to go ... just in time for the 1979 Iranian Revolution to squeeze the supply of the black stuff even further. You won't see many of the 1977-85 Electras these days, but I spotted this faded but solid '79 Limited sedan in a Denver self-service yard last week. General Motors must have bought up the entire world's supply of blue velour around this time, because you'll see this stuff in just about every car they made for the following decade or so. By this time, GM was doing a lot of mixing-and-matching with engines from its various divisions, which meant you could buy an Oldsmobile 88 with a Chevrolet 350 V8 engine, a Chevrolet Monza with a Buick 231 V6 engine, or— as in this case— a Buick Electra with an Oldsmobile 350 V8 engine. Do you want to know how many horses this engine delivered to this 3,631-pound car? 155 horsepower out of 5.7 liters of engine displacement. Times were tough during the Malaise Era.
