I purchased this car from the original owner (a non smoker) a year and a half ago, on eBay.  I bought it because it was low miles, mechanically OK, the right colors and the right price because of cosmetic issues.  My plan was to repaint the White, only in those areas needing it, switch Tailgates (one on car has a dent) change out the Carpets and Headliner.  And for the fun of it, the rest of my plan was to make it look like an Oldsmobile Wagon... by changing the Wheels, Hubcaps, Grill and Hood Emblem... eBay provided these... the Grill and Four Hubcaps are NOS.  I have restored the five Oldsmobile wheels and painted the NOS Hubcaps to match.  And you can have these with the purchase of the car.

The biggest issue the car had was easily taken care of with a replacement front bumper cover (it was white) from Pic N Pull.  Also from there, and included with car is... a really nice Tailgate, L. front Fender (maybe not needed), Rear Bumper cover, Pair of factory rear Resonators and tail pipes (car has funky replacements), and some other small parts.  Three of the windows (driver window OK) need new Composite Glides, a common failure... included are these parts new from an eBay seller.

The car has scrapes on the right lower of both Doors and Quarter panel, and some out of fit at the bottom of the left front Fender (that's why a replacement Fender)... otherwise a very straight clean car.  Interior is still very nice, seats are beautiful and delightfully cozy with no signs of damage, dash is nice, side panels OK, but they have small chip outs at the door Handle area (common to these cars).  Carpets need replacing and the Headliner is coming loose along the edges of the Quarter windows.

I have quite a bit of time in this project and spent 4.5K.  Been a car guy since 1962 when I bought my first car, a 1947 Mercury Woodie, spent most of my adult life restoring Woodies professionally, most have brought there owners immense joy winning top prizes at car shows.  I love these Roadmasters like my beloved Woodies... they are the epitome of all wagons, so cool!  But I am moving on to other adventures, and simply giving up this hobby, after so many years at it, for other interests.  Hopefully someone else will love this car back to its glory and into useful service. 

I have not Titled this car, it is still in its original owners Alabama Title, I do have a good looking Bill of sale from him to me.  and will do same for you. 

Please call with questions.  My cell 530 388 8950... Alan Vivanco

A Nice, New Buick Aims For Middle Of The Road
Any time someone describes some portion of a car or a driving experience as being "nice," I want to either A) throttle them or B) run as fast and as far as I can from that vehicle. "Nice" is among the most insidious words in the English language - at best it's vague, and at worst, it conveys the exact opposite of its literal meaning. Yet it seems to be used with damnable frequency when it comes to verbally illustrating vehicles. "It looks really nice," or "These seats feel nice," or, heaven forefend, "It's got a nice ride," are all windy signifiers of absolutely nothing resembling a concrete opinion. "Nice" is the adjectival equivalent of meekly smiling and nodding your head.
Of course, I'm as guilty as the next person of having thrown English's least powerful descriptor around. There's even a chance that, rant aside, you'll catch me making nice in reviews to come. That's fine, but you should know that when you stumble upon such usage, past or future, that you've found a sentence in which I'm simply applying a bare minimum of effort to the task.

GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met

Sat, May 9 2015

After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.

GM to add 1,200 workers at 2 Michigan factories

Sat, Feb 29 2020

DETROIT — General Motors is adding 1,200 jobs at two Michigan factories to build midsize SUVs and two new luxury sedans. GM said Friday that its Lansing Delta Township plant will get a third shift and 800 more workers to build the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave SUVs, which have three rows of seats. The Lansing Grand River plant will get a second shift and 400 more workers to build two new Cadillac sedans, the CT4 and CT5. Employees laid off at other GM factories will fill the new jobs first, then workers will be added, GM spokesman Dan Flores said. The company has not determined yet how many new people will be needed, he said. Both additional shifts will start working sometime between April and June, the company said. Lansing Delta Township now employs about 2,500 salaried and blue-collar workers, while the Grand River plant has 1,400. GM sold more than 147,000 Traverse SUVs in the U.S. last year, a 0.4% increase from 2018. Enclave sales were up 3% to just over 51,000, according to Autodata Corp. Related Video:
