I am listing this car for a friend of mine, so please remember that when asking questions or when leaving feedback if this vehicle sells. I will post his email and if you have any additional questions or need more pictures please email him. The vehicle has clear title and my friend has the title in hand. Up for sell we have a 1953 Buick Roadmaster Hardtop. The Buick body is sitting on a 1979 Oldsmobile Delta 88 frame and running gear. The car has the Olds 350 motor, power brakes, steering column and gas tank. A Painless wiring harness gives the car all its juice. Tail lights, turn signals, parking lights all work. Car also has an under dash mounted heater. Tail lights are out of a 1969 Cadillac and are turned upside down. All glass is original and is in good shape and working condition.The quarter glass has some "fogging" around the edges. Both door windows and quarter glass roll up and down and both wing glass work. To my knowledge all the original chrome is on the car. Interior is what you see. The front seats are buckets out of a newer model vehicle, they do recline. Rear seat is original with a mexican blanket covering it. The are no door panels, kick panels or headliner. Speedometer, Tachometer and in dash clock do not work. Car has fuel, oil pressure, water temperature and battery voltage gauge that do work. The wiring harness is mounted under the dash and also has a 12v socket for phone charger etc. The white walls are "port-a-walls" not real white wall tires. Port-a-walls came from Mooneyes. Tires are 205/70/15 Goodyear Viva with 80-85% tread left. Spyder caps and beauty rings came from So-Cal Customs. Wheels are 5x5" lug pattern. As far as under the hood...nothing special. No chrome or any type of dress up at all. The car sits low......because it is. No type of air-ride. It has been channeled roughly 8" and just sits low. Overall the car runs and drives good. I have rode with my buddy in this car to numerous car shows out of state, 2-3 hrs away with no problems. Car has drove on the interstate running 65-70mph no problem. His wife drives it quiet often as well. He has no problem worrying about her driving the car. The car is a driver.....it is not a trailer queen. It gets drove. The car is right at the border line to leave as a "Rat Rod" or slick up. The worst part of the body is the rear splash pan directly below the trunk. As far as the rest of the car from 2-3" up on the bottom to roof is in pretty decent shape. No major dents or dings. Roof is fairly straight and solid....mainly surface rust. This car would make a good as is "Rat Rod" cruiser/driver or take the time to slick it up and make a show car out of it. If you have any questions or want anymore pictures regarding the car please email- k_short@hotmail.com. That is my friends email address. The car is for sale locally, we reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. If the car does sell the buyer is responsible for any shipping arrangements. That includes pick up, delivery and cost of getting the car to them.

Buick Velite is a not-so-Volt-like plug-in hybrid concept for China

Mon, Nov 7 2016

Is the Buick Velite a Volt by any other name? That's a question worth asking after General Motors said that the Buick Velite concept vehicle will make its global debut at the Guangzhou Auto Show later this month. GM says the car "will provide a template for upcoming models being launched under the Buick Blue new energy vehicle strategy." Whether that means the Velite is a variant of the second-generation of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in is open to interpretation. Some automotive publications, including Autoweek, are saying that's the case, but GM China doesn't mention the Volt in its press release, only saying that the car is a "high-performance" plug-in hybrid vehicle. As we know, GM doesn't use the "PHEV" descriptor for the Volt, which makes us thing the Velite's powertrain is more like the Cadillac CT6 PHEV. Either way, the concept was developed by the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC), which is a joint venture between GM and Shanghai-based SAIC. As far as the name, GM has been shopping the Velite moniker around for a while now. The automaker first used Buick Velite for the convertible concept vehicle it showed off at the 2004 New York Auto Show. More recently, GM in 2014 filed to use the name for the US variant of its Opel Cascada four-seat convertible model, which debuted in 2013. As for the second-generation version of the Volt, that model appears to be gaining favor in the US. Domestic sales of the Volt through October have surged 64 percent from a year earlier to more than 18,500 units. The new version boosted its all-electric range by 40 percent to 53 miles while increasing its power output by 20 percent.

Buick to add more GS models?

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Buick may not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of performance automobiles, but fans of the brand know what letters to look for. If you believe the reports, there's a new GNX and Grand National on the way, but in the meantime, Buick may offer more GS models to fill the void.
Currently, the Regal is the only model available as a GS (pictured above), packing the same 259-horsepower turbo four as the Regal Turbo but enhanced with key suspension, brakes and rolling-stock upgrades. As Car and Driver notes, similar upgrades could easily be applied to the Verano and LaCrosse, although maybe not the Encore or Enclave crossovers. Of course, Buick would still have to steer clear of Cadillac's Vsport line, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a little room to play.

Buick shows off new Ultra Luxury Interior for LaCrosse

Sun, 27 Apr 2014

The options sheet of the 2014 Buick LaCrosse gets all kinds of fancy with the addition of the Ultra Luxury Interior. Pointing its Tri-Shield logo at the world of haute luxury, the cabin treatment combines sangria leather with ebony accents, shadow tamo ash wood trim and a microsuede headliner to "drive fashion forward."
You'll need to start with LaCrosse models with the 3.6-liter V6 and either the Leather, Premium or Premium II trims to go all Brioni and Buckingham on the cabin, and the privilege package will run you $2,495. We're told that you won't find such contrasting hues anywhere else in the class, though, and that kind of exclusivity might make any price a bargain.
You can find more information on the Ultra Luxury Interior in the press release below, along with some intensely fashion-foward gobbledygook.
