1953 Buick Super Riviera 4 Door Sedan on 2040-cars
Oswego, Illinois, United States
Listing for a friend that has some medical issues and has decide to sell his baby. Here is an email I received from him:
"Bruce, 58,000 miles box stock original. Tires new. Car flushed and radiator
cleaned and resoldered by the master- plus all hoses and under seat radiator
properly gone through, all new brakes, arced and cylinders new. Lines dry from
Arizona and no problem . Original spare, wedge block, jack and owners manual.
Factory desert tint Arizona issue glass. No metal issues anywhere, period. Even
dog leg rear door at wheel arch perfect. NEVER SALT OR SNOW, EVER, OR GOD WILL
STRIKE ME DEAD....... LEFT ORIGINAL PAINT
ON DOOR POSTS, REST OF CAR WENT TO BARE METAL....EXHAUST NEW. Car is a 1953 Super
Riviera 4 door sedan ( like the regular super only wheelbase as in Roadmaster, 1st year 322 nailhead and 12 volt. Possibilities are endless for this time
capsule ride! Even has dealer tag on "new" day nite mirror on how to use "anti
dazzle feature" un-torn after 60 years! Interior is original and is tired but
complete and looks good as is but would blow your mind with a simple carpet and
seat job. Headliner is perfect! Rebuilt fuel/vacuum pump." I personally know this car and I'm the only one who has driven this in years and only occaisionally to keep it fresh. A couple of cruise nights, my sons wedding, and just to drive it around from time to time. I did a complete tune up, oil change and added a brand new battery just about a month ago. This car is garage kept and NEVER driven in winter. There is ABSOLUTELY no rust anywhere on this car, look at the pictures of trunk and spare tire well.. There are more pictures if needed. This can be driven anywhwere with no concerns, heat works, runs cools, starts, stops, steers fine. If you were to restore, everything is there, no hard to find parts to look for, or drive AS IS! Thanks for looking and good luck bidding! |

Next Buick Verano headed to Shanghai Motor Show
Wed, Apr 15 2015Buick is a big deal in China and ranks third in automotive brand popularity there, according to a recent poll. It should come as little surprise, then, that the company is using the upcoming Shanghai Motor Show to debut the next-gen version of the Verano. We are even getting a shadowy tease of the small sedan's look ahead of the April 19 unveiling. Actually called the Wei Lang in China, Buick says the redesigned Verano takes styling cues from the Riviera concept from 2013 Shanghai show and the recent Avenir, as well. Neither inspiration seems too obvious based on this teaser image, but the small sedan does gain two creases down its side: one arches through the front door handle and the other picks up over the rear fender. Buick isn't even hinting at what powers the Verano in China and simply asserts that the model sets class benchmarks for "performance, safety and comfort" there. Of course, as with many foreign market models, it's possible that the sedan could use different engines or wear different altered styling when it arrives in the US. Buick Verano Sports Sedan Named "Wei Lang" in Chinese, Will Make Debut in Shanghai on April 19 2015-04-14 SHANGHAI – Shanghai GM today announced that the Verano, Buick's new-generation sports sedan, has been given the name of "Wei Lang" in Chinese. It will make its debut in Shanghai on April 19, on the eve of Auto Shanghai 2015. As a new strategic model for the Buick brand, the Verano will offer a refreshing driving experience through its stylish and dynamic exterior, exquisite and comfortable interior, and precise and powerful performance. The Verano was inspired by the 2013 Buick Riviera concept car and captures the design essence of the Buick Avenir concept car, which debuted at this year's North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The Verano demonstrates Buick's insight into the aesthetic preferences of Chinese consumers. It embodies the innovative reimagining of Buick's classic design elements, exemplifying the elegance and dynamism of Buick's new-generation products. It is expected to set new benchmarks for performance, safety and comfort in its class. Like the all-new Excelle GT, which was launched earlier this year, the Verano will serve as a strategic model in Buick's bid for a stronger presence in China's mid-range vehicle segment. General Motors traces its roots back to 1908. GM has 11 joint ventures, two wholly owned foreign enterprises and more than 58,000 employees in China.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
