1971 Buick Riviera GS Factory Gran Sport - First year of the beautifully redesigned and sensational 1971 model year Riviera, featuring the dramatic, flowing boat-tail styling with sweeping, sculpted sides, coupled with the very desirable GS Gran Sport option, makes this very low production dream car a very rare automobile. The GS option includes the Big Block 455 ci V-8 matching-numbers 7.5 L engine linked to the rugged, specially calibrated Turbohydramatic 400 three-speed transmission, topped with the exclusive GS chrome air cleaner. GS features include automatic floor gear shifter mounted on a center console that is canted towards the driver for ease of operation, and heavy duty springs, shocks and stabilizer bars. I am not the original owner to verify any mileage, the odometer reads 10425. This GS is not at all tired and is very fast and responsive. The distinctive V-butted rear window and the spine running down the full length of the car, through the roofline and down through the boat tail were design cues inspired by the 1963 Corvette Sting Ray split window coupe. Other distinctive features on the 1971 Buick Riviera are the dual deck lid slotted ventilation system louvres on the trunk lid, only available in 1971, Buick's Mack trac traction control system (prevents wheelspin during acceleration on slippery surfaces), and numerous GS standard features making this Gran Sport fully loaded, including Factory A/C, Power Steering, Power Front Disc Brakes, Power Windows, Power Seat, Dual Exhaust, Safety Speed Alarm, Tilt Steering Wheel, AM/FM Radio, Buick Chrome Mag Wheels including the spare in the trunk, original jack, factory body-side moulding, trunk light, owners manual etc. Always garaged, this GS is strong and solid (no body filler) including the undercarriage, floors and trunk. This particular GS spent its entire life in the dry NM climate until 2002 when it was shipped here to NY and garaged and cared for ever since. Chrome is gorgeous including the rear bumper which is seldom seen free of dings or damage. The GS drives and shifts beautifully and always garners much attention and many compliments whenever it is seen. A Top-of-the-line classic; a motion-sculpted work of art from any angle viewed. Gorgeous unexcelled Bill Mitchell concept car design. Low starting bid. Please bid with confidence. This is rare opportunity to own this very low production GS model. No reserve auction. For any further detailed information, please call (718) 486-3271. NY Thank you. |

Cadillac, Buick and Chevy decisions impacted by worries abroad
Fri, 05 Jul 2013European Concerns Drive GM, But Beware Of The French Connection
GM's bid to rationalize Europe will impact the products that will be offered domestically.
It seems that Europe is defining the future of General Motors more so than its home North American market. Having axed Saturn, Pontiac and Hummer, GM has done a fairly good job of repositioning its remaining four divisions, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Cadillac carries the luxury banner. Chevrolet is aimed at the masses with cars and trucks along with a nod to performance thanks to Camaro and Corvette. Buick bridges the premium gap between Chevy and Cadillac, while GMC offers a hardcore work/upscale proposition.
Junkyard Gem: Heavily personalized 1997 Buick Skylark Custom Sedan
Wed, Mar 27 2019Normally I wouldn't be much interested in a third-generation GM N-Body (a family that includes the Chevy Malibu and Olds Achieva) spotted in the junkyard, though a case could be made for such a vehicle's historical significance. This '97 Skylark, however, arrived in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard well-plastered with stickers, reflectors, and other personalizing touches, making it an interesting document of its time and place. It appears that both of the original white fenders got mashed and then replaced with blue ones, almost certainly obtained cheaply at a yard like this one. If you're not going to paint your new fenders to match the car, then you're already well down the slippery slope to making the car a giant mobile canvas to display your interests. A 20-year-old GM N-Body, regardless of how nice it was when new, isn't worth much, and you could stretch a line of these cars from Lansing to Lahore with all the used-up Ns sitting in American wrecking-yard inventory right now. Perhaps it was the grandchild of the car's original owner who indulged in White Widow cannabis and listened to Siouxsie & the Banshees. The odds against finding the original window sticker in a car like this are mighty long, but here it is. Sold new at Putnam Buick in Burlingame. It appears that this car spent most of its final decade in or near Mill Valley. Mill Valley is a mere 30 miles from Burlingame, or about three hours of Buick driving (you have to go past SFO, through San Francisco, and across the Golden Gate Bridge, a journey featuring apocalyptically terrible traffic at just about any time). Drive east across the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge and you'll get to this Skylark's final parking space, about 20 miles from Mill Valley. This car lived its whole life near the shores of San Francisco Bay, and it will die there. Feathers and a political-party charm adorn the headliner. This car's final owner had a practical side, as we can see from the many reflectors and lengths of safety tape. Just the thing for avoiding a T-bone wreck in the dead of night! "Essentially, Skylark embodies all of the features customers expect from a Buick, in a smaller package, with a very attractive MSRP."
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:
