The engine has been rebuilt, but I will get into specifics below. It really is a rare opportunity to even be around an original paint 70 GSX. Most of them have been restored or wrecked in the last 50 years.

Body:
Original Saturn Yellow paint with the exception of the driver side door. The black stripes are all there. The
hood stripe has the most wear. It can be seen clearly in the video above. There are numerous dings and chips all
around the car, typical of a car that has been driven. Overall, there is no major rot. There are a few spots
where surface rust has popped through. This can all be seen in the video. Photos only go so far with description.

Interior:
With the exception of two aftermarket water and oil gauges below the dash, it is pretty much untouched. Both front
seats have separating seams in the seat bottoms, but the rest of the interior is in nice shape. The driver side
floor mat is getting a bit ratty, but the carpet underneath is still good. The radio works. Clock does
not...surprised?

Engine/Transmission:
The engine is NUMBERS MATCH original. It has been rebuilt sometime in the early or mid 2000's. The VIN is still
on the deck of the block, so it can be verified. I cannot find a number on the transmission case, but it is the
correct casting. The engine runs smooth with no weird noises or ticks/knocks. Clutch feels good and tight and
rows through the gears just fine.

Wheels & Tires:
Wheels are the correct WG Buick rallyes with BFG tires. The wheel chrome isn't perfect, but very presentable.
Spare wheel is also correct WG.

Weatherstripping:
The roof rail rubber is a bit dry and flaky but still doing its job. Door weatherstripping is decent. Quarter
window seals are decent. Trunk seal is there, but it's getting kind of scuzzy along the bottom edge.

Undercarriage:
I've had a pretty good look under there, and it appears that it's been cleaned up and blacked out under the entire
car. I think it would have been done at the same time that the engine and trans were out. There is NO rot. All of
the pinch welds and rockers are nice and clean

2016 Buick Envision might be your first Chinese-built crossover

Mon, Jan 11 2016

At the Detroit Auto Show, the new Envision crossover flips the traditional Buick paridigm on its head. We've been hearing for years about strong sales of the Buick brand in China, but now we'll see if North America is ready for a Chinese-built (but, as GM is very quick to point out, American-engineered) CUV. The Envision rides on the latest version of the Delta 2 platform that underpins many GM vehicles. It'll slot between the tiny Encore and the cavernous Enclave, which is a nice sweet spot for volume sales in the hot crossover market. Gas is cheap, and Americans are eating these vehicles up – in a market like this, does it really matter where the Envision was actually screwed together? The powertrain package is surprisingly compelling – perhaps there will be some life to the driving experience. Motivation is provided by a 252-horsepower turbo inline-four and a six-speed auto, and in a first for a Buick crossover, it'll feature the torque-steer fighting HiPer suspension, which splits up steering and suspension duties in a way that'll tidy up the front axle's manners under power. A few other neat tricks make it into the Envision, like active grille shutters to squeeze some extra efficiency out of the CUV, and available park assist. The 2016 Buick Envision goes on sale later this year. Buick Introduces Envision Luxury Crossover DETROIT – The 2016 Envision is an all-new luxury compact crossover with segment-challenging driving dynamics, advanced technology, connectivity and Buick's trademark interior acoustics. It is a global vehicle, designed from the ground up as a Buick luxury compact crossover. It goes on sale in the U.S. in the second quarter of 2016. "The all-new Buick Envision is a modern, confident and responsive luxury compact crossover that combines the brand's core characteristics with great performance features like our HiPer strut suspension," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick.

2018 Buick Enclave launches luxury Avenir trim

Wed, Apr 12 2017

Remember the shapely Buick Avenir Concept from the 2015 Detroit Auto Show? Well, this isn't that, even if they both share the same name. Meet the Buick Enclave Avenir, a new trim built atop Buick's redesigned 2018 Enclave seven-passenger crossover. Think of it as Buick's version of GMC's Denali trim and you'll be on the right track. As the brand's new top trim level, everything that's normally optional in the Enclave comes standard in the Avenir, along with a bunch of exclusive content. And this is just the first application of the Avenir package for Buick – expect the rest of the TriShield brand's products to get a similar makeover in due time. All Avenir models from Buick will get what the brand is calling a three-dimensional mesh grille with a new set of chrome wings. From there, the Enclave edition bundles unique pearl nickel 20-inch wheels, a Rear Camera Mirror like the one seen from Cadillac, and a new kind of LED headlamps that use something called Evonik Acrylite lighting technology. An in-car air ionizer promises to keep the cabin smelling fresh. The rest of the Enclave package sounds pretty good, too. It's got a standard 3.6-liter V6 engine with 302 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional. A tow rating of 5,000 pounds is standard fare for this class, as are seven seats inside. A frameless eight-inch LCD screen and integrated 4G wireless connectivity are other family-friendly highlights. We expect more Avenir-branded models to make their appearance in the Buick showroom soon. In the meantime, check out the Enclave Avenir in the image gallery above, and stay tuned for more from New York. Related Video:

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
