1968 Buick Skylark Convertible
A real no excuses car. Owned since June 1988 by a very active Buick Club member, this car has been used in countless tours and driven to numerous shows all over the USA and meticulously maintained. A superb road car that has proven itself on many road trips. A local car from new, it is believed to have had just 3-4 owners from new. The body was done over in the 80’s retaining the original factory features and using the original Arctic white lacquer paint. The factory red interior was in great shape and was maintained. This is a bench seat car with power steering, remote left side mirror, factory seat belts, factory floor mats, factory tissue dispenser, original radio and added accessory sockets for you CD player and or phone. The mileage is approximately 117,000, the speedometer was changed when it malfunctioned and the seller has notes on the exact mileage at the time of the change. The math will result in the exact mileage at any given time. There are a few flaws: There is some cracking of the paint in the upper corners of the trunk opening, typical for these bodies and this type of paint. There is a small spot, just 1-2 inches across, on the right rear fender where the paint has blistered and there is some surface rust starting to form. The white top has lost some of its luster. The top pads are showing some serious wear. The heater core is not connected, we don't know why, it was like that when the car was purchased and the owner doesn't use the car in cold weather so he never had any interest in exploring why the heater is disconnected. Here is a comprehensive list of the work done to the car since purchase: 1. 5/24/89 - 94,070 removed transmission and replaced all seals, rebuilt torque converter, and replaced both universal joints. 2. 6/8/89 - 94,100 Rebuilt brake system with new master cylinder, all wheel cylinders, rear brake linings. Converted to SILICONE fluid. 3. 7/24/89 Replaced speedometer/odometer because it was broken. Original odometer reading was 94,277. Replacement odometer reading was 61,710. 4. 7/9/91 - 63,489 New front brake linings. 5. 5/28/92 - 63,703 Front brake drums turned, wheel bearings repacked, new grease seals. 6. 7/29/92 - 63,930 Installed new starter. 7. 4/17/93 - 64,126 Replaced valve stem seals. 8. 5/28/94 - 64,618 New front brake cylinders and new front brake hoses. 9. 7/2/94 - 64,923 New rear brake hose 10. 4/15/03 - 73,803 New air filter, new fuel filter, new breather filter. 11. 4/22/03 - 73,842 New AC Delco spark plugs R44TS 12. 5/3/04 - 77,510 New rear axle seals; changed rear differential fluid. 13. 4/13/05 - 79,706 Replaced timing chain and cam and crank gears.

Shanghai debuts, Jeep's new Rubicon anniversary rigs | Autoblog Podcast # 777
Fri, Apr 21 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd for a recap of the past week's worldwide debuts along with some updates from their recent adventures. They start off discussing the rumors of a new Ford Mustang Raptor and what that means in the context of previous rumors of a Corvette SUV. Then it's time to talk Shanghai, where Polestar, Buick, Volkswagen, Porsche and Lincoln all had big reveals. After that, they segue to Byron's trip to Moab for the 2023 Easter Jeep Safari preview where he drove the AEV Level II Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 20th Anniversary Edition. From there, they reminisce about Mustangs in a nod to the nameplate's 59th anniversary, after which they stick to the theme with a sub-$15,000 RWD used-car discussion. Is there anything worth buying in this price bracket in today's economy?

GM CEO to meet with U.S. lawmakers over job cuts
Fri, Nov 30 2018WASHINGTON — General Motors Co Chief Executive Mary Barra plans to visit Capitol Hill next week to discuss the company's plans to halt production at five plants in North America next year and cut up to 15,000 jobs, two congressional aides said on Friday. GM has come under harsh criticism from lawmakers from both major political parties, and from President Donald Trump, since Monday when it announced the biggest restructuring for the U.S. No. 1 carmaker since its bankruptcy a decade ago. Barra is expected to meet with lawmakers from Michigan and Ohio, where GM plans to shutter three plants, as well as senior leaders in Congress. GM did not immediately comment. Barra has been calling lawmakers this week to explain the decision to end production. Trump has threatened to revoke subsidies for GM. The Detroit automaker plans to halt production next year at three assembly plants: the Lordstown small-car factory near Youngstown, Ohio; the Detroit-Hamtramck complex in Detroit; and the Oshawa, Ontario, assembly complex near Toronto. It will also stop building several models now assembled at those plants, including the Chevrolet Cruze, the Chevrolet Volt hybrid, the Cadillac CT6 and the Buick LaCrosse. Additionally, GM plans to shutter the Warren transmission plant outside Detroit and a plant that makes electric motors and drivetrains outside Baltimore, Maryland. The Cruze compact car will be discontinued in the U.S. market in 2019, although GM may continue building it in Mexico for other markets, Barra said. Reporting by David Shepardson. Related Video:
Next-generation Buick Enclave spotted with Wildcat looks
Fri, Sep 15 2023The rollout of GM's next-generation three-row large SUVs is well under way with the reveals of the 2024 Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia. Another vehicle on the platform is also getting a redesign soon, according to these spy photos: the Buick Enclave. It's still going to be big, and it will now receive the same sort of Wildcat concept-inspired styling as smaller Buicks such as the Envista and Encore GX. The Enclave's front is where the Wildcat connection is the most clear. It has the pointy shark nose and wide, frowning grille. It's hard to say whether it will get a mesh grille like some of the production SUVs, or a slatted grille like the concept. High up are slender daytime running lights with the actual illuminating headlights hidden lower in the outboard air intakes. We're not totally sure if this look will work on such a large, tall vehicle, but we'll reserve final judgment when we can see the car with all its paint and trim on display. The sides of the Enclave still have a fair bit of the Coke bottle curves that have appeared on every Enclave, if a bit more toned down. The greenhouse seems to take after the GMC Acadia more than the Traverse, as it seems it has a relatively thin C-pillar. The D-pillar looks quite thick, which will probably be toned down with judicious application of gloss black plastic. Details of the rear are difficult to make out. It seems to have slim, wide and curvy rear taillights. The rectangular exhaust tips are nicely fitted to the rear bumper. But that's about all that stands out. We're expecting the Enclave to have basically the same powertrain as the GMC Acadia, with the one engine offering being a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 328 horsepower and 326 pound-feet of torque. It should be paired with an eight-speed automatic and either front- or all-wheel drive. Odds are it will not get an off-road variant like the Acadia AT4 or Traverse Z71. But it might get a sportier road-going version that could take advantage of the torque-vectoring dual-clutch rear differential from those aforementioned off-roaders. It should also be revealed sometime next year with deliveries likely in the same year. Related video:
