Up for auction is my 1984 Buick Electra Hearse. This is a Sayers and Scoville (S&S) conversion and is in excellent shape for a 30 year old car. I've owned the car for about two months and it has been my daily driver for that time. I purchased the car locally and have made several 100+ mile trips with no problems whatsoever. I own several hearses and am running out of room for the Buick. Anyway, the body of the car is in excellent shape for the year. There is no rust on the car as it was undercoated previously. The paint is okay, but there is some cracking of the paint on the hood and a few touchups here and there. Again, this is a fully functional car that goes down the road just fine. The vinyl top is really nice with no cracks, tears, or peeling anywhere. All of the power windows work and the driver's door has a new window motor which I installed. There are no leaks of any kind along the windshield or any other window. The interior is virtually flawless in front and back. It includes the pins that hold the casket in place as well. The engine is the 5.0 liter V-8 with a carburetor. These aren't known for having lightning speed or power but it runs flawlessly with no noises of any kind. The car currently has 76,835 miles on it. The air conditioning works and has been converted to the newer coolant. It does blow cold air, but should have a can or two of coolant added. The brakes are good with no squealing. Tires are in great shape with about 3/4 of the tread life left. The oil was recently changed as well. Every light works including the S&S trademark coach lamps on the side of the car. There a couple of issues that you should know about. There is a bit of rust along the tops of the back side doors. One of my other hearses has this as well. It doesn't leak, but I would have it repaired. I took a photo of that and I hope it shows as I want to be completely honest here. There is also a crack at the very bottom of the windshield on the driver's side. There is a photo of that as well. It does not leak, and since it's at the very bottom, it does not in any way hamper your vision. Also, the car does not have commercial glass in it, so if you had the windshield replaced you could use a stock windshield. The cruise control does not work. The hood ornament is also missing. As far as I know of the history of the vehicle, it came from Pennsylvania. It was purchased by the previous owner a few years back from the funeral home. The car has been kept in a garage and was well taken care of. This would make a great vehicle for Halloween and also for a daily driver. I live in the Saginaw, Michigan area, and if you are reasonably close, I'm sure we could work something out on getting the vehicle to you. I'd be willing to help out any way I can, otherwise the winning bidder will be responsible for transporting the vehicle. Thanks for looking and bidding on a nice S&S Buick Electra Hearse.

Opel Insignia OPC getting facelift. Will the Buick Regal GS see it, too?
Tue, 07 Aug 2012We've seen spy shots of the base Opel Insignia wearing facelifted front and rear ends, and now it appears that the more potent OPC version will be benefitting from a nip/tuck, as well.
The front bumper has been redesigned, incorporating new air intakes - toned-down versions of the model's signature fangs - as well as a new grille. Out back, there will be minimal changes to the overall fascia, most likely stuff like slightly redesigned taillamps, and inside, these spy shots show a larger navigation/infotainment screen sitting atop the center console.
This is all well and good for the Insignia, but we're wondering how these changes will impact North America's Buick Regal GS. No, it may not share the same powertrain punch as the Euro-spec OPC, but visually, the cars are nearly identical. When questioned about possible changes for the GS, a Buick spokesperson told us that the automaker "can't comment" on any changes at this point. Even so, we wouldn't be surprised if some small changes come our way in the next year or so.
GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales
Wed, 12 Nov 2014General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.
