 HERE IS A BUICK WITH THE GROUND SHAKING 425 NAILHEAD DUAL QUAD MOTOR, TURBO 400 TRANS AND POSI REAR. DRIVELINE HAS BEEN REBUILT. MOTOR HAS VERY MILD CAM, AND TRANS (BS-65) REBUILT WITH SYNTHETIC FLUID. TRANSMISSION LEAVES A COUPLE OF DROPS HERE AND THERE AFTER SITTING. I BELIEVE IT IS FROM THE PAN.  IT IS NOT COMING FROM THE FRONT SEAL.   REAR WAS FINE AND LEFT UNTOUCHED.

RUNS LIKE A CHAMP.  HANDLES AND STOPS LIKE A 1965 BUICK.

BOTH CARBS WERE PROFESSIONALLY REBUILT WITHIN THE LAST 2 YEARS

MOTOR SHOWS A CASTING # B1364704 WHICH MAKES IT A 63-66 425 BLOCK. THERE ARE NO #'S IN FRONT OF THE VALLEY PAN.

STORY ON THE MISSING #'S.......... WHEN WE PULLED THE MOTOR FOR A REBUILD, THE MACHINIST INDICATED TO ME THAT THERE WERE NO STAMPED NUMBERS ON THE FRONT EDGE OF THE MOTOR, WHERE THEY ARE NORMALLY FOUND.  WHEN THE MOTOR WAS DISMANTLED, IT APPEARED TO HAVE NEVER BEEN REBUILT, SO THE MISSING NUMBERS ARE A MYSTERY.  HE OFFERED TO MAKE IT A MATCHING NUMBERS CAR WITH HIS STAMP KIT, BUT I FIGURED THAT IF ALL IT TOOK TO MAKE A MATCHING NUMBERS CAR WAS A STAMP KIT,  I WOULD JUST LEAVE IT AS I FOUND IT. 

CAR IS LOADED WITH OPTIONS: A/C, P/S, P/B, P/W, CRUISE CONTROL, TRUNK RELEASE, POWER DRIVER SEAT, POWER ANTENNA, TILT WHEEL ETC. MANY OF THE OPTIONS ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL, AS THE VACUUM LINES WERE NOT RECONNECTED WHEN THE MOTOR WAS REINSTALLED.  DRIVERS SEAT ONLY MOVES SLIGHTLY, BUT I NEVER WORRIED ABOUT IT AS IT IS COMFORTABLE FOR ME.

CLAMSHELLS WORK VIA A TOGGLE SWITCH AND ARE OPERATED BY A FORD BRONCO POWER WINDOW MOTOR ADAPTED TO FIT THE ORIGINAL LINKAGE. 

THE A/C WORKED WHEN I GOT THE CAR , BUT NOW I GUESS IT HAS RUN OUT OF GAS.

INTERIOR IS PRESENTABLE....NOT NEAR PERFECT. 6 OUT OF 10

ITEMS NOT STOCK ARE THE RADIO W/AMP (YES, I CUT THE DASH) AND A 10 DISC CHANGER IN THE TRUNK THAT HAS STOPPED READING CD'S, PERTRONIX IGNITION, DUAL MASTER CYLINDER AND THREE POINT SEAT BELTS.

CAR HAS SOME RUST BUBBLES HERE AND THERE, BUT THEY REALLY HAVE NOT CHANGED MUCH IN THE PAST 10 YEARS. I TRIED NOT TO DRIVE IT IN THE RAIN, AND IT ALWAYS SLEPT INSIDE. YOU MAY BE ABLE TO SEE THEM IN THE PICS, THERES A FEW AROUND EACH WHEEL WELL. DON'T EXPECT A 100 POINT CAR AT THIS PRICE. THIS IS A REALLY COOL DRIVER, AND ITS NOT A TYPICAL CHEVY OR FORD (NO OFFENSE, I HAVE BOTH MYSELF)

Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]

Wed, 17 Oct 2012

As we reported earlier, there has been much speculation regarding a Buick convertible of sorts. The most ringing endorsement of this conjecture comes today from General Motors Europe, as the new Opel Cascada has debuted on the interwebs. Opel calls the four-passenger Cascada an "athletic, glamorous midsize convertible." With a length of 4,697mm (185 in.), the Cascada is as long as an Audi A5, to which GM has said it would be slightly larger.
The Cascada, which is Spanish for waterfall, features a cloth convertible top that retracts in 17 seconds and at speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph). The Cascada features a 1.4-liter turbo gas engine, 2.0-liter turbodiesel with 165 horsepower and a range-topping 1.6-liter turbocharged Ecotec engine that puts out 170 horsepower and 280 Nm (207 lb-ft). Power is sent through either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.
According to GM, the Cascada will also come rife with luxury and tech features. In addition to adaptive forward lighting and ergonomic heated front seats, the convertible will feature Opel Eye, which is a front camera that can recognize traffic signs and incorporates lane departure warning and forward collision alert.

Opel Insignia wagon would make a mighty fine Buick Regal

Mon, Oct 17 2016

Once again, the Buick Regal's European stablemate will be getting a long-roof iteration, and our spy photographers have caught it out testing. Normally we wouldn't be overly concerned about the new Opel Insignia wagon, but considering the rumors surrounding a Regal wagon, we have reason to pay attention. Like the next-generation Insignia sedan that we've previously seen, this wagon adopts a much longer and wider look compared with the current model. The nose is also noticeably more upright than the gently sloping iteration of its predecessor. These changes are accompanied by more slender lights and a generally more broad-shouldered look. It's difficult to discern much else, though. As for the odds of this wagon appearing in the States, they look decent, but far from guaranteed. The next Regal sedan will probably continue as a rebadged Insignia, and may be built in Germany. Rumors of a wagon have persisted, supported by word of focus group testing with other wagons and the registration of a trademark for "Tourx." If Opel produces another high-riding, plastic-clad Country Tourer model, we could see it come here with the Tourx name to challenge the Subaru Outback, Audi Allroad, Volvo Cross Country models and, most recently, the Mercedes E-Class All-Terrain. It would also provide the company with another crossover-esque model for little extra development cost. We've also heard a report that a Regal wagon of some sort was confirmed at a dealer meeting.
