Up for “NO RESERVE” auction is my 1965 Buick Riviera with front end collision damage.  My father purchased the car in 1989 and car located since new in Las Vegas and moved to northern Nevada where it has been garaged (even after collision).  That means there is no rust.  Car was originally bronze and was repainted to the color you see.  I have all receipts since October 1989 validating mileage.  Included with purchase are shop manuals, frame chart (will be needed on front frame) and several copies of Riviera Owners Assoc. magazines with good tips, etc.  I was in the process of collecting necessary parts to rebuild the car.  These include front grille, fan shroud, power steering pump, extra headlight(s), one outer fender and I can’t remember what else (over $1000).  Parts that I’ve removed and are fine are included.  Riviera emblems and trim pieces are fine.  Windshield is cracked from the impact (I broadsided a vehicle at about 15MPH). I’ve kept all the crunched pieces.  401 Nailhead motor is numbers matching & not rebuilt and runs fine (was still running after collision with battery & power steering pump bashed).  Had removed fuel tank & cleaned.  Headliner is completely intact.  Original upholstery, side panels, etc. will need replaced/restored.  Tires have 400 miles on them on Ralley wheels.  Power windows, seats  and rare air-conditioner (blew warm air).  Original headlight motors worked great.  I really wanted to get this car back on the road but now need the garage space and don’t want to leave it out in the weather.  Car is very rebuildable.  My loss is your gain.  Vehicle is located near Carson City, Nevada and is available for inspection.  The car is being sold in “As-Is” condition with salvage title and buyer is responsible for pick-up and/or transport.  If you have questions, please ask and thanks for looking.

GM delivers best Q3 sales since 1980, 2.4M vehicles sold

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

People are a weird sort. Even after registering over 70 recalls through the first three-quarters of 2014, General Motors saw its best Q3 results since Jimmy Carter was in the White House, registering over 2.4 million global sales between June and September on the back of strong results in the US and China.
US sales were marshaled by good results for GM's pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, which bumped the manufacturer's truck market share to 35.6 percent, up nearly three points from Q1 2014. Buick has seen healthy growth as well, with the Encore dominating its segment for the sixth month running.
It was China, though, that really bolstered GM's sales, as the company's efforts to top last year's record-setting 3.16 million units continued apace. Small SUV sales saw massive growth, with Encore, Chevrolet Trax and Captiva figures jumping 90 percent in Q3. Brand-wise, Chevrolet, Cadillac and Buick all saw sales gains in the PRC, with each recording double-digit year-over-year jumps. Cadillac sales alone were up 63 percent compared to the first nine months of 2013.

Buick struggling to keep up with Encore demand

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Buick is having a hard time keeping up with demand for its all-new Encore mini-CUV, according to a report from Automotive News. The stylish, lifted five-door went on sale in January, but dealers have reported that supplies have dwindled after the initial high demand, taking the proverbial "wind out of the sails."
General Motors admits that it underestimated demand for the diminutive Buick, which is built in Korea and sold as the Opel Mokka in Europe, where it's also seen success. Buick spokesperson Nick Richards told AN, "We increased production, so there have been a lot more landing within the last month."
Buick has done a booming business, though, even with its limited supply of Encores. With over 12,000 units sold in the first half of 2013, the small CUV is on pace to annihilate industry analysts' estimates, which predicted no more than 18,500 units in 2013. We're not entirely surprised. When we first drove the Encore late last year, Autoblog professed that we had no idea how sales would turn out, as the Encore wasn't really entering into an established segment. Even so, wefound a surprising amount to like in the Encore, enough that we "wouldn't bet against it" being a major success.

Buick Riviera Concept hits the floor in Shanghai

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Here we have a concept in the true sense of the term. The Buick Riviera you see here - the name of which was last used in production back in 1999 - is said to preview Buick's future styling direction, which means we should expect to see more flowing body shapes to go along with new versions of the marque's classic waterfall grille design. Oh, and we don't believe there's a single porthole in sight.
Powered by Buick's so-called dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system (we'll stick with the W-PHEV acronym) that allows the car to be charged wirelessly just by driving atop a special charging mat on the ground, the car's powertrain is just as futuristic as its exterior shape.
Other high-tech bits include holographic projections on the windshield showing the driver what's around him, with input coming from 10 high-res cameras and 18 micro high-precision sensors. The car also sports 4G wireless connectivity so that its occupants are always connected.
