Buick Skylark was the top of the line model, a factory sport V8 car with AT,
full power steering & power brakes. This car has been fully redone &
upgraded running gear with a 1969 Chevrolet (Camaro/Chevelle SS/Corvette) L-48 High Performance style built 350 V8 coupled
to the noted Turbo 350 3-speed Automatic transmission: This vintage 350 Chevy V8
was noted for durability and high performance with a 4-bolt main & factory
10.25:1 compression. It was factory under-rated at 300 horse & 380 ft-lbs
of torque. The 350 V8 was built with modern performance additions
such as the aluminum Edelbrock Performer EPS Intake & Edelbrock 4V carb, full
Accell HP electronic ignition system & Accell high energy spark wires, low
drag lightweight cooling fan & aluminum racing radiator. The engine is
equipped with custom headers and a free flow dual exhaust… giving horsepower estimates now well over 360++
horse. This 350 V8 is equipped with tall
polished aluminum valve covers and an aluminum air filter. Under the hood you
will see newer alternator & wide belts, new hoses, battery & more. The resto-mod also includes a removable face CD
player in the dash, hidden behind a factory radio delete panel. A few of the photos
the panel was removed to show the CD radio & speaker system. This is an
estate sale and I am helping the widow move this striking vintage muscle car on
to a lucky new owner. As such, I do not have full history, but being a classic
car collector I can honestly say someone is going to get one heck of a classic muscle
car in impressive condition & running strong… a true head turner that you
can hear coming your way. SHOW
& GO!!
The car runs strong and
drives well! It sounds awesome! It has a free flow exhaust and coupled with the
headers sounds impressive…. as good as it looks! I broke the rear wheels loose
and burned rubber on my first test run without actually trying. An investment quality vehicle
you can have fun with… for weekend fun or show! TERMS OF SALE: Any vintage

Buick Envision to go on sale in third quarter of 2015
Mon, 06 Oct 2014Following an earlier concept and successive teasers, Buick revealed the new Envision crossover a little over a month ago. The thing is, it was launched in China, for China. The question, then, is whether it will make the jump to the North American market. And the answer is: quite possibly.
According to division sales chief Duncan Aldred in speaking to Edmunds, Buick is looking into the prospect of bringing the Envision to the US: "We can't confirm anything, but clearly it is a very nicely designed and executed product that is very much a Buick," said Aldred.
If and when the compact crossover would appear in US showrooms, it would slot in between the smaller Encore and the larger Enclave. It would likely be offered in front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and mild hybrid configurations. Sources expect it to arrive in the third quarter of 2015 as a competitor to the likes of the Mercedes GLA, Lexus NX and Lincoln MKC.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
NC dealer falsely announces return of Regal Grand National, Regal GNX
Wed, Dec 3 2014Like many new car dealers, Liberty Buick GMC gets so excited about its brands' new wares that it puts out press releases announcing when new models are on the way. That's not typically national news, but the Charlotte, NC store has created a bit of internet hubbub by announcing that it will be "one of the first dealers in the country to offer the Buick Regal GNX," and it's even started to add customers names to a waitlist. Only one problem: Despite seemingly annual rumors and calls for such a model, Buick hasn't announced any Grand National models at all – let alone a GNX – and no such models are actually in the cards. The Liberty Buick press release talks in a nostalgic, venerative tone of the original 1982-1987 GN franchise, and goes on to say: "These returning relics will be based on the highly-acclaimed Alpha vehicle architecture currently used in the Cadillac ATS, 2014 Cadillac CTS, and soon to be in the sixth-generation Chevy Camaro. Alpha is the internal name of a General Motors vehicle architecture engineered to underpin compact and mid-size rear-wheel-drive vehicles." In the release, Liberty Buick claimed the GN/GNX models would arrive in late 2015, citing a coupe bodystyle, including a rather fantastical-looking GNX rendering from Bestride.com. Unsurprisingly, none of this is true. Autoblog reached out to Buick for comment about the release, and brand communications manager Nick Richards confirmed that the company had discussed the matter with Liberty Buick representatives. Richards went on to say that the release was wholly incorrect, proclaiming "an agency [for the dealer] picked up a lot of stuff off the internet" and ran with it, including an old Car and Driver story from 2013. The dealership subsequently issued a retraction, with Scott McCorkle, owner of Liberty Buick GMC saying: "We love the idea of the Buick Regal GNX coming back to our showroom but for now, it's only a concept. Bottom-line, the article was incorrect.
