  Here's a rare find for you Buick guys !  I found this car back in 2002 for sale in West Virginia and flew out and looked it over , drove the car , and bought the car and drove it home . I bought the car because my Dad bought a brand new teal 1968 Le Sabre Deluxe 4  dr sedan and I always loved that big Buick ride and the body lines .

    So after I drove the car home I decided to find all the NOS parts I could find and make this 1968  Le Sabre Custom into a Deluxe model . After years of searching I found all the Deluxe  moldings and also the rare stainless steel body side moldings that was a dealer installed option . I didn't stop there !

 I kept searching and found more NOS parts . I found and bought  both front and rear tri shield emblems , right side mirror , side marker lights , front bumper , and the list keeps on going and going .

  While searching for NOS parts the front suspension was replaced , new springs all four corners , drive shaft center bearing replaced and all u joints .

  The brakes were all gone through as well , replaced tires with reproduction bias ply tires and put Buick road wheels on the car with new center caps as well .

   The interior is real close to new , in fact the seats have been reworked and NOS correct Buick fabric as well !  The original carpet and interior looks great . The am/fm factory stereo radio sounds great .

  The car was repainted before I bought it from the original owner with a nice but older driver quality paint job . There is one small dent on hood near windshield molding . I have been told that dent busters may be able to get the dent out but I have never took the time to take the car to them . I did find a NOS molding for the hood and will go with the car at the time of sale .

  The engine runs great and the transmission shifts smoothly . The 350-2 runs very smooth and uses no oil .  I believe the mileage is correct but no paperwork to verify . When you were to come and see the car and drive I believe you would agree with me .
 
  Also I have replaced the radiator , hoses , thermostat , water pump , belts , and more in the recent years . Also the single exhaust has been replaced with duals and has very low mellow sound at idle as well as driving down the road .

  I believe I have descibed the car the best I can . Take a look at the pictures and if you have any questions or would like to see any more pictures please contact me via email ! 

   Thanks for reading and happy bidding to all !

2013 Buick Verano Turbo

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.
