1970 Buick Riviera With Riviera Gs Parts Car on 2040-cars
Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
|
I am selling this running, driving 1970 Riviera at no reserve. Included with it is a 1970 Riviera GS which is complete except for its engine and transmission. Both cars have open Tennessee titles. The car pictured is the primary vehicle. Green with green vinyl top and either very dark green or black bench seat interior in poor condition. Absolutely stock and unmolested. Only slight rust, the worst being in the floors and the fender skirts. Stock engine with original air cleaner with stickers still attached. Excellent set of matching bias-ply whitewalls just recently installed. The chrome wheels from the GS parts car are currently on this car. Starts right up and runs good. Moves and stops but I have only driven it up and down the street. A restoration project but certainly a realistic one. The only odd thing about it is that it has an electric fuel pump for whatever reason that is turned on and off by a toggle switch which just lays on the floor. Works great, but not right. This car has its original owner's manual, pre-delivery sheet, new vehicle warranty booklet, accessory pamphlet, stereo booklet, and Protect-O-Plate. Sold new out of Bristol, Virginia. This is a great-looking and rarely seen old car that deserves to be restored.
The parts car is a 1970 Riviera GS that is complete minus engine and transmission. It has bucket seats, console, tilt wheel, and even an original Buick 8-track tape player. Has a title. All glass is good and all trim is there. Floors are decent. Paint is nonexistent. All in one piece - not boxes of parts. Its chrome wheels are on the green car and the original Riviera hubcaps are on it now. Has the original posi-traction rear end which I have been offered $500 for by itself but wouldn't take it. In this deal you get two cars. The idea is to make a really cool Riviera GS and have a ton of valuable parts left over. The only things missing are the center caps for the chrome wheels. I only have one. Almost everything else is there in duplicate. The interiors of both cars are weak but salvageable. The green car is stored inside my garage and has been for several years. The parts car is under cover and out of the weather but obviously has been outside for a long time previously. I do not think you should even consider driving the green car home as it has not been on the road in many years. The paint looks better in the pictures than it does in person as I had just washed the dust off it and it is still wet in the photos. The paint is not very good. These are remarkably styled cars that you just don't see every day. Great documentation on the green car and titles for both. Lots of spare parts. A GS car with all the GS goodies! I need to move these cars and I will listen to any offer you may have. I am interested in old motorcycles and will consider any schemes you might have for you to get these Buicks in exchange for an interesting bike or two you might have laying around. Let me know. You can reach me by return email or call or text me at 865-387-0925 if you have questions or if you have swapping ideas. |

GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan
Wed, Mar 15 2017GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.

J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998
Wed, 12 Feb 2014For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.
Buick confirms 2017 Encore for New York Auto Show
Thu, Feb 4 2016Buick will unveil the refreshed 2017 Encore at the New York Auto Show in March, company spokesperson Stuart Fowle tells Autoblog. The brand isn't ready to divulge info about the updated compact crossover, but a recent revision to the Encore's European platform-mate, the Opel Mokka (above), might provide hints about what to expect. "While we have no additional details to announce, we're excited to confirm that media and customers will see the new 2017 Encore at next month's New York Auto Show. The Encore joins the Cascada convertible, Envision crossover, and LaCrosse sedan as the fourth new product arriving in Buick showrooms this year," Fowle said to Autoblog. Expect the 2017 Encore to have its own twist on the the Mokka's (now called the Mokka X) exterior styling, and spy shots hint the Buick has a new front end with a smaller grille. The Encore could benefit from the Opel's redesigned dashboard, which integrates the infotainment system into the center stack. It's a very attractive change, and we hope to see the switch in the US. The Mokka X also gets improved safety tech. The German compact CUV now sports adaptive LED headlights that adjust to traffic. US law doesn't allow these intelligent parts, but the Encore might get dumber LED lights. The Opel's improved front-mounted camera also increases the traffic sign detection rate. The Mokka X is available with the updated powertrain from the Encore Sport Touring, so there might not be any engine upgrades for the Buick. Buick needs to keep the Encore fresh, as the compact CUV is the brand's best selling model. It delivered 67,549 of them in 2015, a 38.2-percent jump over the previous year. The popularity continued into January 2016 with 4,920 deliveries – up 42 percent. Related Video:
