1969 Buick Electra 225 Custom 2 door coupe......44,000 original miles

I purchased the car from the previous owner who had the car for the last 22 years.  He always kept it garaged and didn't drive it much as he had other cars.  Everything works on the car.  Cold air, power antenna, power locks, power seat.   The interior is like new the seats show no wear, good headliner, no cracks in the dash, carpet is in good shape.  All the gauges are clear.  Radio sounds great.   The car comes with the spare tire and jack and clean trunk.  The engine shows some wear typical of a 44,000 mile car.   It is a 430 4 barrel connected to an automatic transmission with power windows and power brakes.  It starts, runs and drives excellent , it floats down the road.   The chassis is rust free and much of the original undercoating is visible.  The exterior is shiny and bright.  However there are lots of nicks on both sides of the car.  It looks like it must have been parked where people didn't care if they hit it.  Please look at the pictures.   Despite the nicks the car shows very well.   The glass is all in excellent condition.  The original window sticker and owners protecto plate comes with the car along with the owners manual. The chrome and stainless is all in excellent shape the rear bumper has some small dents.  The vinyl top is in excellent condition with no bubbling or defects.   The tires are about 50% the white walls look like new and its topped off with a great set of chrome full wheel hubcaps.   The car is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car should sell locally.   Please don't bid before contacting me if you have a negative or 0 ebay feedback.   I invite you to come and inspect the car, or call me at 815-238-0796 if you have any questions about the car.  I will do everything possible to help coordinate shipping but shipping is at your cost.   Thanks for looking and good look bidding.  I believe my reserve is very reasonable given the overall condition of the Electra.

Buick Enspire EV crossover concept claims 370 miles of range

Tue, Apr 17 2018

For the Beijing Auto Show, Buick is showing yet another crossover, this one in concept form. It's called the Buick Enspire, and unlike the rest of the brand's crossovers, this one is all electric. It's more than just a repurposed Bolt EV, too. Instead of the Bolt's 150 kW and 200-horsepower motor, the Buick has a 410 kW motor, which equates to 550 horsepower. Buick claims the motor will get the crossover to 60 mph in just 4 seconds. The Enspire isn't all about performance, though. It would also have a very healthy claimed range of 370 miles, topping that of the longest-range Tesla. Fast charging is supported, with Buick saying it can recover 80 percent of its charge within 40 minutes, though the company doesn't say how potent the charger used for that number is. It also apparently has support for wireless charging. This Enspire concept is rather pleasant looking, too. It has smooth, elegant curves draped on a body with a very wide, aggressive stance. The grille is an interesting evolution of Buick's current design, exaggerating the current crossbar into large wings that spread into the lights, and trading the vertical slats of the main grille for a solid illuminated insert. The rear taillights are also distinctive in how they comprise one long, slender line that form a pseudo spoiler in the rear hatch. The interior is plenty swoopy, too, with a number of futuristic touches. It has an OLED touchscreen for infotainment, and the windshield features augmented reality capabilities displaying road information and navigation routes. Luxury touches include real wood arm rests and center console. Whether we'll see a production Buick with the capabilities of the Enspire is anyone's guess. Surely to have that level of power and range would make it immensely expensive, similar to or surpassing the Tesla Model S and the Jaguar I-Pace. That would be rarefied air for Buick. But we wouldn't be surprised to see either an all-new crossover, or a redesigned current model, sporting the designs seen on this concept. And many of the cues will likely spill over to other Buick products. And while the performance seen in this concept might not reach production, we also wouldn't rule out an electric Buick of some sort, probably a crossover in the near future. General Motors has made it very clear it's going to push electric vehicle development, and a Buick crossover would be a good choice for a few reasons.

The new Opel Insignia might be a great Buick, but it's a sad Holden Commodore

Thu, Dec 8 2016

Since the first shots of the uncovered Opel Insignia hit our inboxes, we've been filled with excitement for the new sedan. It looks great, it should come to America with little to no visual changes as the Buick Regal, and we might even get a wagon version. Unfortunately, there's a lead lining to this silver cloud, and it comes to us from Down Under. You see, the Opel Insignia is also undergoing a re-badging job in Australia to become the new Holden Commodore. It's replacing the beloved rear-drive Commodore (with an optional V8 and ultra-high performance HSV variants) with a front-drive-based platform offering four- or six-cylinder engines. This is depressing news considering the Zeta-platform underpinning the Commodore VF spawned the Pontiac G8, Chevrolet SS, and fifth-generation Camaro. Knowing this was going to happen doesn't help much either. What makes it all worse is that the new Commodore doesn't have a shred of unique styling in the bodywork. That's not an exaggeration. A new grille with a Holden lion badge instead of an Opel lightning bolt badge is the only change. See for yourself in the Insignia gallery below. Not only did GM erase a unique Australian model, it didn't even allow the brand to give the car a distinct shape. It's sort of like when Ford planned to replace the Mustang with the Mazda-derived Probe. The Probe wasn't that bad for the time, but it was no Mustang. At least in that case the Mustang survived. View 12 Photos Before we get ourselves too down, we should mention that there are reasons to be hopeful for the future. For one thing, the new all-wheel-drive Commodore/Insignias will come with a version of the GKN-developed rear differential found in the Focus RS and Range Rover Evoque, which is pretty neat on its own. And Opel/Vauxhall have always had wild performance versions of the Insignia and its Vectra predecessor. The last one made 325-horsepower and had all-wheel-drive. A new one would likely produce much more, since one of the available V6s makes 308 horsepower. Then imagine all of that extra hypothetical horsepower hooked up to the all-wheel-drive system that introduced us to "drift mode." Not only that, but rear-drive Holdens may not be completely dead yet. A Belgian man announced his intention to buy an old Holden factory along with the tooling and rights for the car once it was discontinued. His plan is to continue producing the old model after Holden is done with it.

VW ID.4, the new Buick Envision and crossing Hyundai's N Line | Autoblog Podcast #668
