                                                                BICENTENNIAL YEAR CLASSIC CAR

                                                              1976 BUICK LESABRE 4 DOOR CUSTOM

Most everyone that loves old cars has a fantasy of finding that nice little lady or gentleman that has that old car hidden away in  the garage & you are able to get the car & bring it out into the light of day & find that it has been so well taken care of that almost all the power options still work & it runs out very nice. I think we have found an older car in that realm. This is a wonderful 38 year old classic car from the days when cars were Big with Big Motors & could cruise down the highway like you were sitting in your living room. This Buick LeSabre is in unbelievable shape for a Garage Find. Someone bought drove & took care of this car for since new. The car has been driven under 1600 miles in the last 22 years. The last service date & mileage is on the Amco Service slip in the holder on the dashboard. As you try each option on this car it is unbelievable that most everything still works. Things like cold air, am/fm stereo radio w/power antenna, cruise control, power windows, turn signals, head lights, Rear Window Defroster, Windshield Wipers w/mist button, Power Seat, Adjustable Speed Warning Buzzer, power trunk release, & believe it or not, the silly CLOCK STILL WORKS! It was getting downright crazy trying to find something that did not work on this car, finally after checking everything we could think of, including all the lights, one of our neighbors called out when we were backing the car out of the driveway & informed us that one of the back up lights was out. Whew! Finally. 

          Car condition w/#1 being perfect Show Car, & #6 being good just for parts car,  This car would be a solid 3. Interior would be a 2, paint is a 4, engine & drive train is a solid 3, no Rust noticed. Drives like a number 2 car. Should be pretty easy to get to local car show condition. Wonderful Daily Driver.

     I don't want anyone to think this LeSabre is a  perfect show car, because it is not, there are parking dings, some small paint chips, & at least one fender looks to have some paint work done, the paint is old but still looks good, could at least use a good buff & wax. The right front fender has a scratch about the size of a basketball on it. Should be a easy fix for any local body shop. The chrome & trim work is very good for this age car,  maybe could use a good polish. The paint is good but tired. We just washed the car & did not wax or buff the car to get more accurate condition pictures. If the car was buffed & waxed with a few touch ups, it would look absolutely great. We tried to keep the price affordable & also let the new owner have a few things to do to get the best look. Anyone would have a real hard time finding a 1976 model car with all these features that still work & in this kind of condition. The mileage on the odometer reads 34,608, & was stated to us as being original, which might be hard to believe until you see the condition of the interior & drive this car. Then it is not that hard to believe at all. We cannot Guarantee the mileage, but believe most anyone will be happy when they see the condition & drive this car. Our family had a 1971 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser & Pontiac Parisian back when I was a youngster, this wonderful Buick drives just like them, & both those cars were bought new. Some people might rather have the 455 motor, but we really like the 350 4 barrel motor this one has. It has all the power you will ever need & gets much better gas mileage.

             The recent items repaired or replaced on this classic include new 4 Barrel Carb, replaced radiator, new plugs, plug wires, Dist. Cap, & Rotor, new oil & transmission fluid incl/new filters, new tires, & new rear brakes w/Front Brakes in great shape. Turn the key & go cruising tonight. I could keep writing about this car on & on, but I have tried to describe it as it is. We keep shaking our heads & smiling to be able to find a car like this so many years after it was made. The car is an honest 38 year old car from America's Bicentennial Year & easy on the eyes & pocketbook. WOW, what a car.

          This LeSabre is being sold AS IS, with an very LOW RESERVE & a very affordable BUY IT NOW PRICE! For those that remember these cars, or if they brings back Fond Memories, this is an easy way to get into the classic/collector car hobby for not much money. The collector car insurance is unbelievably affordable, & antique car tags are available in a lot of states. Collector Car insurance for as low as $139-$169 per year, including liability, collision, & comp, depending on agreed upon value. That is enough reason to buy an old car right there. Thanks for looking & wish we had a Dozen of these to offer. Great Car-Great Price-Great Condition! We have over 50 pictures available if someone wants to see more detail. Email us thru ebay with any questions.

Winning bidder required to pay $500 within 48 hours after auction ends & pay the balance by the 7 th day from auction end.

MotorWeek remembers the nearly forgotten Buick Reatta

Thu, Feb 18 2016

The Reatta was Buick's failed experiment to take on European competitors with its own two-seat luxury coupe and convertible. The model only lasted a few years, and US customers didn't see another droptop from the brand until the Cascada. The latest MotorWeek Retro Review takes a look back at the short-lived roadster and remembers it quite fondly. Host John Davis calls the 1990 Reatta droptop "one of the best looking convertibles ever." His sentiment seems a little hyperbolic, but the roadster is definitely an attractive machine by the standards of the time. The smooth front end and pop-up headlights are reminiscent of Japanese sports cars of era, and the profile with the top down is elegant. There are weaknesses, though. The manual roof mechanism appears cumbersome to operate, and the crude digital instruments, which simulate physical dials, make the cabin look too dated. Other than a complaint about over-boosted power steering, MotorWeek enjoys how the Reatta drives, too. Buick's roadster is largely forgotten today, but such glowing praise suggests it deserves to be better remembered. Check out this Retro Review to look back on this interesting experiment from the early '90s. Related Video:

Meet the Buick Velite 7, the Chevy Bolt's Chinese cousin

Wed, Jun 17 2020

The Buick Velite 7 has officially been revealed after having been leaked and spied a few months ago. The name derives from Buick's line of electrified models it sells in China, of course the design shows it's most closely related to the Chevy Bolt EV. Buick hasn't revealed many details about it, and only one photo, but we do get to see it and we also have a range estimate. The range estimate is 500 kilometers on the NEDC cycle, which translates to 311 miles. That's actually less than the NEDC estimate for the Bolt EV, which is 565 kilometers or 351 miles, which increased for the 2020 model year from 520 kilometers or 323 miles. Of course NEDC figures tend to be much higher than EPA numbers, which rated the current Bolt EV at 259 miles and the previous version at 238. As such, we would expect this Buick to have an EPA range closer to 210 to 220 miles. We don't know what resulted in the lower range, but it could have something to do with additional weight or slightly worse aerodynamics. It could be both. Design-wise, the Buick is clearly based on the Bolt, but has a more aggressive front bumper and a trendy partially floating roof. It also seems to have a slightly boxier, taller profile, mainly because of the nose. Buick hasn't released any other details about the crossover, preferring to save them for the car's launch later this year. Since it seems so closely related to the Bolt, it probably has the same drivetrain: a single electric motor sending 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels via a single-speed transmission.

NHTSA may greatly expand GM airbag recall

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is pondering whether to dramatically upscale a pair of airbag recalls on General Motors vehicles. The two existing campaigns, one launched in the fall of 2012 and the other in January of this year covered just 6,845 vehicles, but the government agency is considering whether to boost the recall to around 400,000 units.
The existing recalls involve the the closely related 2012 Buick Verano (shown) and Chevrolet Cruze sedans, along with Sonic and Camaro models. The root of the problem is a shorting bar in the inflator module of the steering-wheel-mounted airbag that may contact the primary state airbag terminal, a condition that could prevent deployment in an accident. Dealer technicians have been replacing the steering wheel airbag coils to fix the issue.
According to a post on NHTSA's website, the root cause, said to be a production issue, may not have been completely isolated - particularly for the second recall, which was for the Camaro. According to Automotive News, GM says it is cooperating with the government investigation, but won't say whether or not it knows the true origin of the problem.
