1962 Buick LeSabre Sanded to Bare Metal then Clear Coated 401 NailHead Motor (The Wildcat 410, designated as such for the 410 ft. lb. of Torque from the factory) Fresh Tune-Up with new Plugs, Wires, Cap, adjusted Timing and installed electronic timing, new hoses and belts, new filter. Power Steering Good Brakes, but this car did NOT come originally with power brakes. Go figure. You just push a little harder than modern cars. Excellent Tires Speed Buzzer that works! (I have it set on 100mph, and it works) Heater works Great (no a/c, wasn't an option) Nice Interior with New Dash This classic runs and drives great ALL DAY!!! Would make a very cool daily driver Lots of Attention You will be the 4th owner Clear New Mexico Title in Hand This car started it's life as a special order for a police department in Arizona. It was to compete against a Chevy and a Ford to determine a new squad car. It performed well in trials, but the Wildcat couldn't escape it's poor gas mileage. It was auctioned off, and a nice lady bought it and drove it for a long time, and eventually parked it under some trees on her land. Soon after, her next door neighbor rang the door bell and asked if he could buy it. You see, he had just received news that he had cancer. His doctor felt it would be good for his immune system if he were to find something that really needed cleaning, and then scrub it clean. The doctor wanted him to imagine his immune system cleaning the cancer away. He immediately thought of this old car with sap being dripped on it, and he made his offer. He went straight to work, and he scrubbed and he scrubbed, and eventually the cancer went away. Well, I don't know, but I bought the car from him, and I just couldn't shake his story. He seemed very sincere. I had spent a little time with him, and he was a normal, genuine man in his late 60's. I hated the idea of just painting over this car, but it needed something. I wanted something special for a special car. I felt that stripping this car down to the bare metal would pay homage to this unique classic, and pay homage to it's previous owners. Think about it. This is as original as it gets. This is as survivor as it gets. There is nothing hidden, nothing painted over. So I went to work taking this car down to it's bare metal. I created the exact look I wanted as I went. It has a nice pattern of swirls that only show in different lights. It looks incredible. It looks so much better in person. I can honestly say that. It took weeks, but somehow in all that hard work, I felt a sort of spiritual cleaning. The car seemed to draw me closer to God in some strange way. It was like God was sanding down the enamels in my life that were hiding problems. Maybe all that's a bunch of hog wash, but then again, maybe its not. I don't think this car healed that man, and I know it didn't heal me. But, it has given me reason to think that there is something very special about it. Something better. Something bigger. I haven't had this much fun driving a car in a very long time. It looks so good, and it drives so good. It is a solid car. It is quicker than most cars on the road, and I LIKE THAT! This car draws a lot of looks and a lot of attention. Be ready to show it at the gas station or wherever you take it. People just are drawn to it. They like it. The bare metal wows everybody. The comment that sticks out the most is, "THAT'S SICK MAN!" It is sick man. I'm kinda connected with this car now. Feel free to ask questions or whatever. You can even call me. (505) 259-1119 I can FaceTime or Skype you and show you the car. I'd be happy to do a walk around and start it up and burn YOUR rear tires off if you want. Whatever, I'm a car guy, and I like to talk about my cars. This is an old car. It is not fully restored. It has quirks, but they're not annoying quirks. It has a small leak. It has dents and rust spots. There's some sand marks on a few windows. They are very obvious in the pictures. It starts immediately, always has. Warms up immediately. Smokes the back tires. What more do you want? This is an underpriced, no reserve auction for a classic car. There are no warranties or returns. Ask you questions now. Talk to your boss now before you bid. |

38k GM eAssist hybrids recalled for circuit board, fire risk
Mon, 06 May 2013General Motors has issued a recall covering 38,197 2012 and 2013 model-year Chevy Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Regal sedans equipped with eAssist, and sold in the United States. The automaker will check the generator control module for proper operation. Only vehicles built before December 2012 are being recalled.
According to the automaker, a malfunctioning generator control module could slowly drain the battery, causing an indicator to light up in the dash. If that indicator is ignored, the driver may experience a stalling engine, and in some cases, "a burning or melting odor, smoke, and, in rare instances, a fire in the trunk."
GM says the issue is not with the eAssist battery pack; the smoke and fire comes from overheating of the control board. One trunk fire has been reported, but no injuries are known. Scroll down below for the official press release from GM.
General Motors posts record earnings, but global sales fall
Thu, Apr 21 2016General Motors started the year with record success. The automaker's $2.7 billion in adjusted earnings before interest and taxes was its highest ever in in the first quarter of 2016, up from $2.1 billion in from the same time period a year earlier. Net income grew to $1.95 billion, which was more than double the $953 million in the same period last year. The company's figures also beat analysts' predictions, according to the Detroit Free Press. Despite the financial growth, global sales actually decreased by 2.5 percent to 2.36 million vehicles. "We're growing where it counts, gaining retail share in the US, outpacing the industry in Europe and capitalizing on robust growth in SUV and luxury segments in China," CEO Mary Barra said in the company's financial announcement. GM did well in North America with an adjusted EBIT of $2.3 billion, up from $2.2 billion last year. Sales in the region also grew 1.2 percent to 800,000 vehicles. According to The Detroit Free Press, the company has been especially successful at selling more expensive models in the US. The company's average vehicle was $34,600 in Q1, about $3,000 more than the industry average. Elsewhere in the world, GM also showed improvement. Europe practically broke even after losing about $200 million last year, and Opel and Vauxhall sales grew 8.4 percent to more than 300,000 vehicles for the quarter. South America only lost $100 million, which was half as much as Q1 2015's $200 million loss. China remained flat at $500 million of income. Cadillac volume jumped 6.1 percent there, and Buick's deliveries increased 22 percent, thanks to the Envision crossover's success. GM Reports First-Quarter Net Income of $2.0 Billion 2016-04-21 EPS diluted of $1.24; First-quarter record EPS diluted-adjusted of $1.26 First-quarter record EBIT-adjusted of $2.7 billion GM Europe posts break-even performance DETROIT – General Motors Co. (NYSE: GM) today announced first-quarter net income to common stockholders of $2.0 billion or $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $0.9 billion or $0.56 per diluted share a year ago. Earnings per share diluted-adjusted for special items was a first-quarter record at $1.26, up 47 percent compared to the first quarter of 2015. The company set first-quarter records for earnings and margin, with earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) adjusted of $2.7 billion and EBIT-adjusted margin of 7.1 percent.
