<br />
<p align="left">This 1969 Buick California GS was born on Sept. 9, 1968 in
Fremont CA. It was then sent up to San Francisco to Waters Buick were it found
itself it's first owner. The car stayed in the hands of that owner until the
90's were it was found in a back yard, having been left to the elements by the
original owner. The second owner saw the potential of what the car was and
proceeded to restore it close to original as he could afford. The car had no
rust but it did have a couple of dents, the worst was the passenger quarter
right behind the door and they were addressed without having to replace any
panels. The original engine and transmission were rebuilt and the rest of the
car brought up to driver quality. The current owner lives in Australia, he has
had me working on it for the last year and he wanted the car to be restored to a
higher level but has switched his interests. This is an early car with all the
documentation, cars like this don't come up often so take the opportunity to own
this special car.<p align="left">The engine is the original
350, it was rebuilt around 1997 and has about 30K miles since gone through.
It was pulled out, new timing chain, oil pump and water pump installed and
all new gaskets. It is currently running synthetic oil. The engine was
detailed with all the correct paint and decals. The carburetor was rebuilt,
new fuel pump and new foam installed on the ram air openings. It has new points/cap/rotor/wires, the
distributor was cleaned, new advance unit installed and counterweights lubed. The
radiator was replaced and a recovery tank was added, the original radiator
is included with the car. The transmission had
the fluid and filter changed, it was also resealed while the engine was out. The
differential had new axle seals and pinion seal. All of the belts/hoses are
new and the heater core was replaced. The brakes are all brand new, all
hardware, shoes, drums, hoses, master cylinder and front wheel bearings
(Timken) have been replaced. The exhaust system is a brand new dual setup
with mild sounding turbo mufflers, basically the way it could've sounded new
(dual exhaust wasn't an option). The gas tank was taken out to put in a new
sender, it was cleaned and refinished along with replacing all fuel and vent
hoses and it has a new cap. The front suspension is all brand new with Moog
parts, all the ball joints, tie rod ends, idler arm, pitman arm and
bushings. It has a brand new set of Cooper Cobra tires in a 205/70R 14 which
is equivalent to the original optional tire size and the rally wheels were
cleaned and refinished. It has a new set of KYB Excel-G shocks all around,
nice riding for these older muscle cars. I installed a set of 2" coil spring
spacers in the rear to give it a little bit of a raked look but they can be
removed and it sits perfectly level if you prefer.<p align="left">
The interior looks good, it was done to be a driver so it doesn't have original
style upholstery on the seats. The carpet and dash pad were replaced when it was
restored originally. The rear package tray was replaced because it had holes cut
for an aftermarket stereo so it was returned to original with insulation pad.
The headliner has a couple of bad spots and a new one is included, I just didn't
have time to install it for him. The door panels are in good shape and all the
windows work as they should. The doors had the glass run seals replaced.<p align="left">
The exterior of the car has all the original sheet metal, there was a couple of
dents worked out and the bigger one was right behind the passenger door but it
was able to be straightened. It took me a while but was able to find the wheel
opening molding the previous owner was never able to find. There is and was no
rust except for some surface rust on the floor in the trunk that cleaned up
well. There were no holes and it was cleaned, treated with POR 15 and sprayed
with the correct trunk finish. The original jack and tools were restored and it
retained the original jack sleeve as well. I found an original rim and installed
a good used tire for the spare. I replaced the trunk seal and got a jack
instruction decal for the lid. The paint is about 15 years old now, it was
painted a later GM color close to the original because he thought the original
was too dull. There are a few chips in the paint but it's definitely looks good.
it was an above average job but not high end. The bumpers were redone at the
time of paint and shine well but there are a couple of blemishes from polishing
over the years. The stainless trim is good all around and it does have typical
spots in the pot metal. The headlight buckets were repainted on the inside
areas, all the headlight adjusters were replaced, Halogen bulbs added for the
outers and headlights aimed. The grill chrome is a little worn so it could be
redone and the drip rail molding was not straightened very well when the did the
top but it's not to hard to do that. The glass is all original, the rear glass
was resealed when the did the top, the windshield has a few tiny pits in it and
a mark from a wiper blade but it could be polished out. The rest of the glass is
good.<p align="left">
The car is really clean underneath and chassis is immaculate, I started to
repaint the frame starting up front when that work was done so it wouldn't take
much to finish it. The original exhaust was still on the car when the new
exhaust was done, that alone will tell you how clean the car is underneath. All
the lights work, the horn, heater fan, wipers and even the key buzzer but the
radio doesn't.<p align="left">It is a pretty nice car but like most it has
little things you could do to make it nicer, most of us are never done but
rather just finished for now. If you want an excellent driver, I think this
foots the bill. I've tried to describe it as accurately as possible and I
get a little wordy but want to cover everything. If you have questions let
me know. I have a ton of pictures of all different steps of the work done I
will include with the car as well as some pics the previous owner had in the
file showing the original engine being pulled for rebuild.<p align="left">There is
a Buy-It-Now as you
can see, you can make an offer if you want but there is more money tied up in it
than the buy it now so don't be looking for a steal and Ram Air Buicks have
started to climb in the last year or two. There would be interest in a
partial trade (min. $10K cash + your car) but it would have to be a car in
CA or AZ, I don't like rust. I welcome inspections, the car is
here and can be viewed by appointment. The winning bidder will receive a California
title, clear of any liens with the car. I can assist with arranging shipping to your
location or make recommendations for shipping, of course it can be picked up in person
after we have received funds. This car is located at my shop in Fresno, CA.</P>

Watch 14 hot rides take over concept car lawn at Pebble Beach

Sun, Aug 16 2015

The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is an annual celebration of the beautiful, old cars that grace Monterey Car Week. But Monterey – and Pebble Â– features lots of newer metal, too, and that includes the concept lawn at Pebble Beach. Now, "concept lawn" isn't a totally accurate name anymore, and you'll see why in the list below. This year especially, plenty of production cars can be found in the area once reserved for the conceptual. Still, we're happy to see them. Here's what's featured this year: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider Audi R8 BAC Mono Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Buick Avenir Galpin-Fisker Rocket Speedster Hyundai HCD-16 Vision G Coupe Icona Volcano Infiniti Q60 Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4 Maserati Ghibli McLaren 570S Rolls-Royce Wraith By our count, that's seven concepts out of fourteen cars. But it still makes for one hot group of metal. Check 'em out in the gallery above.

The last Buick Cascada unceremoniously rolls off the assembly line

Mon, Oct 7 2019

Motorists in the market for a new Buick Cascada need to act fast. Peugeot-owned Opel has built the last example of the drop-top model in its Gliwice, Poland, factory, and there's no replacement in sight. Buick announced the Cascada's demise in early 2019, and GM Authority learned the model went out unceremoniously. There's no indication that the final example received a commemorative plaque on its dashboard, or is headed to a private collection; photos of it aren't even available. The dealership who ordered it might not know it's about to receive the last specimen of the breed. As a non-luxury, front-wheel-drive convertible, the Cascada was marooned on an island that Buick's rivals abandoned halfway through the 2010s. The Chrysler 200 Convertible and the Volkswagen Eos were discontinued after the 2014 and 2015 model years, respectively. Landing in a class of one likely raised more than a few eyebrows in Buick's product planning division, but it was a semi-enviable position that helped the firm sell about 17,000 units of the Cascada between the 2016 and 2019 model years. It proudly pointed out about 60 percent of buyers were new to General Motors. Left-hand-drive examples of the Cascada were sold under the Buick and Opel banners. Right-hand-drive models joined the Vauxhall range in the United Kingdom, and they wore a Holden emblem in Australia. The four flavors were identical with the exception of some brand-specific trim pieces and powertrains. None will get a successor; the aforementioned carmakers are no longer operating under the same roof, and the global convertible segment is steadily shrinking.Â The Cascada's multinational provenance made more sense before General Motors sold its Opel and Vauxhall divisions to PSA Groupe, the Paris-based carmaker that owns Peugeot, Citroen and DS. The French firm pledged to keep producing cars for Buick for as long as necessary, but the former sister companies tacitly agreed to stop co-developing vehicles. The sedan and station wagon variants of the Regal are now the only Opel-designed, PSA-built model left in the the Buick portfolio.

2017 Buick LaCrosse gets Avenir-inspired tease

Wed, Sep 23 2015

Stylish touches from the beautiful Buick Avenir Concept are actually hitting the road on the front end of the new 2017 LaCrosse. The brand is showing off this single teaser of a more angular grille surround than what is currently seen on its lineup. In the center there's a three-color version of the well-known Tri-Shield badge. Chrome wings meet at the logo, and vertical chrome bars lead the eye up over the body. A version of this design is eventually becoming part of the entire Buick lineup by 2018. Debuting at the 2015 Los Angles Auto Show in November, the future LaCrosse rides on stronger, lighter underpinnings than the current model. It also gets a five-link rear suspension. The company promises that the changes mean a more engaging drive from the sedan. "The Avenir concept shattered expectations of what a Buick could be and the 2017 LaCrosse promises to do the same," Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick, said in the release of the teaser image. The show car's look was highly praised by critics when it debuted at this year's Detroit Auto Show. The Avenir even won Eyes on Design awards for Best Designed Concept Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials. Related Video: Buick Previews All-New 2017 LaCrosse Expressive, Avenir-inspired design cues introduce the new face of Buick DETROIT – Buick today confirmed the all-new 2017 LaCrosse, with a preview of its Avenir concept-inspired design cues. A striking evolution from current Buick models, LaCrosse features a grille design that puts a new face on the brand, including a new, three-color tri-shield insignia set on a wing-shaped element. Contrasting with darkened waterfall grille bars and spanning the width of the opening, it connects the grille and headlamps, and emphasizes LaCrosse's new sculptural surfacing. The design was introduced on the Avenir concept and was inspired by the 1954 Wildcat II concept. It's a face all Buick models will adopt by 2018. "The Avenir concept shattered expectations of what a Buick could be and the 2017 LaCrosse promises to do the same," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Buick. "Its expressive design represents a break from convention and highlights the progressiveness in all new Buick models." The next-generation LaCrosse's design is framed on an all-new chassis that is stronger yet lighter than the current model and serves as the foundation for a more dynamic driving experience.
