Rare 1961 Buick LeSabre 2 door sedan (flat top). Only 5,959 built which makes these more rare than the bubble tops. 39K actual miles on the 364 nailhead. This car is all original other than the wheels, suspension, and brakes. The interior is all original and does have a few tears, and the vinyl on the very bottom passenger door panel could use recovered. The paint is all original and there is NO RUST on this car at all. Other than the normal dings and nicks you would expect on a 52 year old car there are no major paint or body flaws. The underside doesn't even have any surface rust to speak of. Car runs, drives, stops just fine. Ive put over 200 miles on it over the past few weeks. The original 2 barrel carb was just rebuilt this spring, and a new fuel pump was just installed along with new hoses. The wheels are 20" Billet Specialties Vintecs. The suspension is Ridetech Shockwaves in the front and airbags in the rear. The front drums have been changed over to Corvette disc brakes.


The car is a great cruiser and being so oddball it gets more attention than most finished cars do. It has several cool features original to 61 Buicks only that really set these cars apart. I had plans to completely blow this car apart and redo the entire thing with custom paint, interior, etc. But have decided that it is just too nice to do that to right now, so figure I might as well move on to something else. 

This car is sold as is and is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early if needed. Feel free to contact me with any questions. 317-223-7472

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

Buick Envision spied fully disrobed in China

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

The Buick Envision crossover is supposed to have its big reveal on August 28 and be on display at the Chengdu Motor Show, but apparently the new midsize crossover just can't wait to meet its public. Car News China caught a completely undisguised example parking outside of the convention center where the show is held.
The Buick designers are going right down the middle with the styling with nothing too flashy to turn off potential buyers. Still, it's a handsome CUV that kind of looks like a stretched Encore from some angles with vents along the hood, a large greenhouse and a prominent crease running down the side.
This new midsizer is hitting the Chinese market first and reportedly rides on GM's Delta platform that's also found underneath the Buick Verano. According to Car News China, prices there are between 160,000 yuan and 220,000 yuan ($26,000 - $35,800 at current rates). However, it's also rumored to eventually make its way across the Pacific to give Buick buyers in the US an option between the Encore compact crossover and larger Enclave.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
