This is a 1976 Buick Century Regal Replica Pace car with 40,257 original miles. It was purchased new and never driven much just sat in a garage with a cover over it which is included with the sale. It started life as a fully equipped Regal S/R including power steering and brakes, power windows and door locks, power bucket seats with recliners, tilt steering, air conditioning (converted to R134A and is ice cold), cruise control (works great), speed warning, AM/FM cassette (also works), I added a trunk mounted FM modulated CD changer and replaced the old factory speakers with new Polk Audio 6X9's in the back and 5X7 in the front. I also added a hidden amplifier under the rear package tray and the whole system sounds great. All power options are in excellent working order and the car is also equipped with Hurst Hatch T-Tops which are in perfect condition and don't leak or have any wind noise. There is a factory Hurst box in the trunk to hold the T-Tops when they are off the car so you can take them with you and all the original literature from Hurst. All the rubber seals and weatherstripping are in perfect condition with no cracking or leaking. The car also came factory equipped with the space saver inflatable spare and has the inflator bottle with it as well as factory equipped superlift air shocks which are in great shape and hold air well with no leaks. The car was repainted about three years ago in two stage base/clear original pewter grey metallic and all of the pace car decals were meticulously reproduced and are in perfect condition. The pictures show the car with the original Buick Rally wheels with Goodyear Eagle II tires and also with a set of 15X8 and 15X10 Cragar SS wheels with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires. The car will come with the factory wheels but the Cragars will be extra if you want them as well. The engine starts, idles, and runs smooth and the transmission shifts cleanly and smoothly as well. There are NO fluid leaks at all under the car and No rust anywhere either as the car was never driven in cold or rainy weather. It runs, drives, stops, smells and feels like a brand new car still and I would not hesitate to drive it across the country. There is a new exhaust system from the cat back with a flowmaster muffler that is still very quiet but has a nice low rumble to it. Other than that, everything is stock as equipped from the factory. I also have the original build sheet, dealers brochure, owners manual, specification sheet, 1976 Buick press release kit, copies of letters from Buick motor division to the dealer network introducing the pace car option, dealer order form, Buick public relations press photos and letters, original advertising, one ticket to the 1976 Indianapolis 500 60th annual race that was paced by the Buick equipped with a V6 for the first time and there is a pit and press pass and souvenir program also. Buick maintenance schedule, warranty information, consumer information booklet, Buick accessories catalog, exterior color chart, dealer price guide with leather folder, Buick product information booklets and several old magazines from 1976 featuring the Buick pace car. This is a really low mileage and unique car and you will be virtually guaranteed not to see another one driving down the street or at a car show. It gets a lot of looks and stares when I drive it and people are constantly asking me about it. I can help with shipping if you need a car carrier and also have additional pictures including the trunk and under side so just e-mail me if you would like them or have any questions.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

A Buick Regal wagon is coming to America
Fri, Mar 17 2017The signs have all been pointing to the US getting a Buick version of the gorgeous Opel Insignia wagon, and we now have the most concrete evidence yet that the rumors were true. Our spy photographer caught one of the wagons out testing, and it features a number of styling cues that indicate this one is coming to America. The most obvious change is the grille. While the overall shape remains the same, the look of the grille itself is altered. The geometric slats of the Opel- and Holden-badged versions have been exchanged for Buick's trademark waterfall bars. The badge itself is significantly larger, too. Aside from that, a close look reveals subtle changes along the lower edge of the car. The fenders seem to be slightly flared. They're complemented by sideskirts that are rounder and chunkier than that of the normal Insignia wagon. These styling touches also suggest that this Buick variant will take on the psuedo-crossover aesthetic with black plastic body cladding. If this is the case, the Buick Regal wagon could be the high-riding, plastic-clad Regal TourX that's been rumored. We know that General Motors trademarked the TourX name a while back, and Buick wants more crossovers or crossover-esque vehicles since they make up the majority of the brand's sales. It would also be an excellent option to established models such as the Audi A4 Allroad, Volvo V60 Cross Country, and Subaru Outback. Considering the fact that we've seen the Opel Insignia and Holden Commodore revealed already, we expect the Buick versions to be fully revealed sometime this year. Related Video:
GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold
Wed, 15 Oct 2014People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.
