Listed for auction is a RARE 1964 Buick Riviera wearing its original paint and interior.This is a car that has been sitting since 1982.It was purchased from the original owner 4 years ago by the neighbor across the street,then purchased by me.He had intentions of getting it running but decided at 83 years old it was time to let it go.This is one of 2122 Rivieras built in 1964 with the 425 Super Wildcat KX code engine with dual carbs and dual snorkel air cleaner. The carbs and intake with all linkages intact.It has the original transmission and rear end which was ordered as an open rear end gear.It has a power driver seat,power antenna,AM radio,door edge guards,a/c and tinted windows.It wears its original hubcaps.I have the original owners manual and the protect plate to verify.The body is very solid but it does have areas that will need attention,trunk ,rear window and driver side floor by where your left heel would rest.The rest of the body is solid and straight with the exception of the drivers door skin(one dent).The paint is oxidized and there is some surface rust in areas.Some people are paying big money to paint their cars to look like this patina.The interior needs a total re-do.The chrome and stainless is in very good condition.When I tried to turn the engine over it wouldn't budge.The old fellow that I purchased the car from drained the oil for some reason and it sat for a long while with no oil.This numbers matching engine (see picture) was pulled and inspected and was able to be turned over.There is no major engine failure but it will need to be gone through(rebuilt) AND IS INCLUDED WITH THE CAR.I installed a 401 that I had that runs great,and topped it with the original intake set up.The gas tank and fuel system was gone through as well as the brakes,new master cylinder,wheel cylinders,hoses and front shoes.The car runs drives and stops however it was just in my driveway,needs tires.This is a great restoration project.They are getting hard to find "all there".The ORIGINAL NUMBERS MATCHING KX CODE block(with matching serial number) will go with the car and can be put in the trunk for transport.Please don't ask if this can drive to California,it will have to be transported.That being said this car could easily be driving around with little work.Title is clear in previous owners name.Any questions please ask.

Is that a Cascada on Buick's Detroit show stand?
Sat, Jan 10 2015The above image is a close-up of one particular car spotted in a rendering that Buick provided of its stand at next week's Detroit Auto Show. Two doors, four seats, no top, deep and arcing shoulder line - any idea what that might be? We're going to guess it's the coming Buick Cascada, only we're stretching the definition of the word "guess" since the car is a dead ringer for the Americanized Opel droptop, which we drove more than a year ago. Looks like it's finally going to get the 'Official' treatment as a 2016 model, after it was shown to dealers last August. There have also been rumors that the car will be called Velite, but newer rumblings out of the Renaissance Center suggest that such gossip is a dead-end. The Cascada will enter a segment with no real competitors, since the Chrysler 200 ragtop is gone and a Buick convertible vs. Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro convertibles isn't really a thing, and we think will make a nice expansion of the brand's model-range footprint. The big bit of news we're waiting for is what's going to power it, a Euro-sourced four-cylinder with 168 or 197 horsepower? We don't have long to wait to find out.

2016 Buick Cascada First Drive
Wed, Jan 27 2016Florida became a state in 1845. It is the third most populous state in the United States, home to the most-visited theme park in the world. It is where you'll find every convertible ever sold in the United States, be it a pasty white Infiniti M30 or a Lamborghini. And soon, many examples of the 2016 Buick Cascada will call it home. Florida is full of Buicks. Wonder if anyone bought a Rendezvous Ultra? It's in Florida. The Buick Reatta, the company's last convertible before this? Also there. Buick, however, is eager to get those who better remember Bush vs. Gore than Nixon vs. Kennedy to ask, "That's a Buick?" Which is how we arrive at the Cascada. The Cascada isn't so much a new Buick as a car that's new to Buick. It's been on sale for about three years as the Opel Cascada in Europe, along with badge-engineered siblings sold by Vauxhall and Holden in other parts of the world. Buick took that time to make several hundred changes to the Cascada for US consumption and then found it without many rivals. The Chrysler 200 convertible, Volkswagen Eos, and Volvo C70 would all be prime targets for the Cascada here, were they not all dead now. Buick's gamble is that these Chrysler, VW, and Volvo (also Saab, for that matter) customers are looking for somewhere to go next. The Cascada isn't so much a new Buick as a car that's new to Buick. One thing is certain: the Cascada is eye-catching to Floridians. I had no fewer than six people in Miami and Key West walk up to me and ask what kind of car it was, or even say, "That's that new Buick convertible, right?" Despite being three years old, the Cascada's looks have aged pretty well. And it's been spared many of the tacked-on details, like fake portholes and chrome wheels, that were adhered to the Regal when it made its trip over from Opel-land. Top up or down, the Cascada is attractive. Unlike the Audi A3 or BMW 2 Series convertibles (the former being the Buick's prime target), there's no abruptness to the design, no sharply ending lines. The Buick looks relaxed in a Palm Beach or Palm Springs way, even on the inside with the convincingly stitched dash top and standard heated leather seats (one of the pieces redesigned for the Buick). That being said, the pattern on the seat material is a misstep, looking like it was inspired by Aunt Flora's 1972 patio furniture. Then it's surprising that you don't exactly sink into the Cascada. While the seats are mounted low, they're not pillow soft.
Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers
Wed, Aug 14 2024Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.
