1969 Buick Gran Sport on 2040-cars
Crimora, Virginia, United States
|
For sale is a very original 1969 Buick Gran Sport. This is a very nice driver that looks, drives, and shows very well. The car is painted black and has a red pinstripe down the side along with a vinyl top. The paint is not perfect, it has a few little chips and light scratches here and there, but nothing major. The body of the car is in great shape with no rust and no bad body work. The floorboards and trunk pans are also solid with no rust. Most of the chrome on the car is original with the exception of new 350 hood emblems, new GS quarter panel emblems, new GS grill emblem, new GS trunk emblem, and new drip rail molding. The wheels are the optional chrome Buick "Super Sport" wheels that have new B.F. Goodrich redline radials mounted on them. The sidewalls of the tires have been shaved giving the sidewall a nice smooth finish. The combination of the chrome Buick wheels and the redline radials make for a very nice addition to the car. The interior of the car is original and is in good shape. It has the optional rallye steering wheel and the optional floor console with the horseshoe shifter. The front and rear seats have no snags or tears and the carpet and door panels are in good shape. The dash has the original radio and original heater/AC controls. The headliner in the car needs a little attention at the sail panels. It is nothing major, just a matter of tightening it up a little. Under the hood is the original Wildcat 350-4 that has recently rebuilt. It has been bored .030 over, has a T/A 212 cam, new Accell ignition coil, and a Pertronix electronic distributor conversion kit. The cam specs are 218/230 duration, .459/.470 lift, and a 112 lobe center. The motor has 9.5:1 compression, the stock intake, stock exhaust with turbo mufflers, stock heads with hardened seats, and a rebuilt and jetted Q-Jet carb. The transmission is the original Turbo 350 that has a fresh complete rebuild. It has a 2200-2400 stall converter with a mild shift kit. It has an open differential with 3.23 gears. This is a very nice, driver quality car. It is a fun car to drive to cruise-ins and gets a lot of attention where ever I take it. The car is being sold as is and the buyer is responsible for pick up. I can email more pictures of the car if interested. My home phone is 540-943-4234 and cell is 540-241-9937. |

Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China
Fri, 19 Apr 2013It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
Jay Leno finds no detail neglected on Icon's Derelict 1948 Buick Super
Wed, Apr 1 2015Jonathan Ward seems to have one of the greatest jobs in the world. As the CEO at Icon, he's in charge of not only the company's fantastic trucks but its Derelict series of semi-restored classics, as well. Ward's vehicles are no strangers to Jay Leno's Garage, but the latest guest on the show might be one of Icon's coolest yet. What looks like a 1948 Buick Super Convertible on the outside hides the supercharged heart of a Corvette ZR1 underneath. Like the rest of the Derelict series, this old Buick's toasted paint and pitted chrome are all part of the charm of the car, and it's really a case of beauty being more than skin deep. The Super rides on a custom chassis and suspension to make the convertible a far better driver than even a pristine original example. Plus, Ward hides all sorts of modern upgrades inside that are practically invisible until he points them out. Leno absolutely falls in love with driving the Derelict Buick. If his enthusiasm grabs you, the video below from Ward goes much deeper into the build process of this awesome project.
We want this Buick Regal wagon rumor to be true
Tue, May 31 2016The car we know in the US as the Buick Regal is sold as a Vauxhall/ Opel Insignia in Europe, where it's offered in four-door sedan, five-door liftback, and wagon body styles. Call it a case of wanting what we can't have, but we like the last two body styles a lot. Based on a report from a Buick/ GMC dealer meeting in Austin, one of them could be coming to the US soon. According to a poster identified as 97GreenRS on the forums at GM Inside News, GM showed dealers the 2018 Buick Enclave, Regal, and Regal GS, as well as the 2018 GMC Terrain, and then confirmed it would offer the Regal wagon here in the US. While that wouldn't normally be all that much to go on, we know Buick has been toying with the idea of a wagon for some time. A Regal-badged wagon was spotted way back in 2011. More recently, we reported on a trademark filing for "Tourx" and "Regal Tourx," which suggest a long roof (Tour) and all-wheel drive (x). If the Regal wagon arrives alongside the base sedan and GS as a 2018 model, we'd expect a debut within the next 15 or so months. That would place it right at the beginning of the 2017 auto show season, which starts next September in Frankfurt, Germany. With that in mind, it seems possible the new Regal would debut first as an Opel Insignia before appearing at a US show like Los Angeles or Detroit, although there's a lot of speculation going on there. We just want to see "Buick" and "wagon" in the same sentence again. Related Video:
