Since turning 70, my family has been encouraging me to sell most of my personal cars, so I am motivated by them to sell

Back in the 60's, amongst the 409Chev, the '69GTO, and several other Muscle Cars I was fortunate to own, was a 64 Wildcat 445 2dr Cpe that not only was a real runner, but was a car with a superb ride as well.

Several years ago, I spotted this Riviera Gran Sport for sale by Jerry Hammer at GM Obsolete in Phoenix, and I had to own it when I saw that it had the ultra-rare Factory MZ Code SUPER WILDCAT engine, one of only 179 of these engines ever built by Buick.

Buick only built 179 of these engines , as a special advertising program ,

and if you don't know about them, you can easily follow these links

The car was a beautiful West Coast survivor that had also been TLC'd and primped by Jerry , who is well known in the Riviera World. A couple of pictures of it when I acquired it from him are shown.

After unloading it , the car was driven to cruz's and shows, then sent to the CarNut Museum , Birmingham, where it stayed on display for a year or so.

Upon it's return, I decided to upgrade even further the condition of the car, and so had the White Pearl repaint removed, and returned the car to the correct Buick Artic White. No cheap paint job, the car was primered with special DuPont white primer, and finished with the best DuPont base/clear, with the multiple coats of clear blocked between coats. Hood removed, and totally refinished underneath. New hood insulation pads installed. The engine compartment was pretty nice when we got it, but we redid all the black surfaces with a lot of hand sanding and the correct Eastwood Underhood black matte,

The Windshield had a couple of small chips, so I had it removed, and replaced after the paint job

The front and rear bumpers were decent, but we sent them to Mike in California and had them re-chromed.

When we reinstalled them, all the Silver Argent trim was carefully redone with special base/clear, including the bumper filler pans, top and underneath, and the headlight trim rings.

The interior was in nice condition, except the carpet kick panel on the drivers door had some wear, so we had the upholstery shop professionally replace that piece.

Doorjambs, etc were re-painted , of course, and new rubber door seals , as well as the trunk seal

The top cowl panel was removed, and refinished underneath, as well as the inside of the cowl area and firewall, with special black matte from Eastwood

As nice as the car is, like all 'survivors, it is not flawless. The horn ring is missing from the steering wheel..I never thought to look for one. Also I have not replaced the cardboard trunk side panels ( they are still available). The chrome on the original wheels has a few thin spots, but looks good overall, and the rare Riviera center caps are in nice condition. The rest of the chrome and stainless is in nice condition except the two small pieces in the rear are a bit pitted ( not so noticeable) , and could be redone in the Winter. The cardboard piece near the inside of the rear window is a bit out of place, but hardly noticeable.. Buick used premium upholstery materials, and the upholstery is in nice condition, with just a small amount of wear on the passenger seat edge-piping.

Besides doing a great job detailing the motor, etc, Jerry did a fine job on the undercarriage, including all new free-flow exhaust. We didn't do any underside refinishing, except the bumper brackets, when we re-installed the bumpers

I have obviously tried to be a detailed as possible in describing the car, but please ask questions, as I cannot anticipate, or remember everything.

For the serious buyer, I will supply any pictures desired....

of the pictures I have posted, some are as the car arrived from Phoenix, and heading for the CarNut Museum ... as well as the later pictures back in Artic White ( the wipers were removed for buffing )

I love the car...but at 71years old ...they say it's time for me to let it go

Maserati Levante SUV previewed in patent drawings

Wed, May 20 2015

Maserati is set to become the next high-end automaker to get into the crossover game with the impending launch of the Levante, and this could be our best look at it yet. Revealed in drawings reportedly filed with the patent and trademark office in Australia, these line drawings give us an idea of what to expect from the design of the Trident marque's upcoming crossover. The styling looks fairly consistent with what we've come to expect from the Ghibli and Quattroporte sedans, only in a higher-roofed, liftback form. Evident in the design are the Modenese automaker's grille and lighting forms, its signature portal vents along the front fender, powerful rear haunches and a steeply raked tailgate. Previewed by the Kubang concepts of 2003 and 2011, the Levante will be a vital product for Maserati's expansion – just as the Bentayga will be for Bentley, the F-Pace for Jaguar, the DBX for Aston Martin and the Urus (if ever approved) for Lamborghini. Expect it to pack the same V6, V8 and diesel engines as the aforementioned existing sedans when it debuts sometime soon into the new year ahead. Related Video:

Maserati GranTurismo Folgore teases itself around Monterrey

Mon, Aug 22 2022

Maserati began teasing the GranTurismo Folgore toward the end of Car Week on Twitter and Instagram with a caption that read, "A rose gold wrap suited to the Golden Coast. Impossible to keep it secret. We’re touring California with the new GranTurismo Folgore and an audacious Italian-American entertainer. The air is electric. Keep following us down this road." Maserati seems to have meant the line about not keeping secrets more literally than one would expect, because it nonchalantly parked an uncamouflaged car in the same rose gold wrap at a charging station on the Monterey peninsula before the teases began. It had been thought that the automaker might debut the coupe over the weekend, which could have happened. Autocar says the Italians hosted a private preview for potential customers Â— that, apparently, was the secret.Â This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Maserati teased a different prototype draped in a blue wrap earlier this year before the Formula E grand prix in Rome. This version, with its Homeric rosy hue and quasi-three-spoke wheels is what we've been waiting for. We like what we see. Yes, it's highly reminiscent of the GranTurismo that went off the market in 2019. Why should that bother us? That coupe is still beautiful. From what we can tell of the Folgore, the updated lines should make the coming EV even more so. Guests at that putative private event might know what powers the 2+2, but we don't. We know the battery-electric Grecale crossover will get an EV powertrain with 590 horsepower, the much more expensive GranTurismo should handily outdo that even if it doesn't touch the 1,200-hp figure some believe possible. We expect to get that info when the official debut happens in the coming months. The official GranTurismo Folgore launch is scheduled for next year, probably joined sometime in the year by its droptop sibling, the GranCabrio Folgore. It's thought there will be an ICE-powered version for the two-door as well, maybe offering the choice of an unaided 3.0-liter Nettuno V6 or a hybrid centered around the V6 or a 2.0-liter four-cylinder. Certain markets sell the Ghibli sedan with a 2.0-liter hybrid; however, that option is viewed as a long shot for the new GranTurismo.Â Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.
