1969 Buick Skylark (picture Link In Description) 350/2brl on 2040-cars
Dover, Ohio, United States
**LINK TO SLIDESHOW OF PICTURES**: http://s1175.photobucket.com/user/jjandchrissy/slideshow/1969%20Buick%20Skylark Selling my 1969 Buick Skylark. I bought it in 2006 near Charleston WV and drove it home to Dover, Ohio. It's been a good car and we had a lot of fun joyriding in it. But now we have kids and college funds to start so we've reluctantly decided to sell. I believe everything is original except the paint. Exterior is sharp and has a nice shine to it, the Interior is in great shape other than a small rip above the rear window crank. The radio turns on but no stations come thru since the antenna is broken. A new antenna is included with the sale. (I never got around to putting it on) Dash clock doesn't work. All other gauges, lights and switches work. Engine is a 350-2, it has always started easy and runs well. About 2 years ago I began to have trouble with it overheating. My mechanic decided heat was leaking from the manifolds, so he took them apart and sanded them down to make a tighter fit. It has overheated once since the repair so I'm not sure if the issue is fully resolved. The brakes need some work. I think the break booster has gone bad. Included with sale: ~Original Owner's Manual ~A bag of misc. light bulbs and fuses. ~Two spare tires ~Jumper cables ~Fire extinguisher ~New antenna ~Two car covers |

Buick has best sales year ever, delivers over 1M cars globally
Wed, 08 Jan 2014If there are any lingering doubts why General Motors held onto Buick while killing Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn, one only has to look at the sales numbers from 2013 for the real answer. Thanks largely to strong sales in China, Buick set a global sales record last year by selling more than one million vehicles.
The lion's share of Buick sales came from China, which sold more than 809,000 units - about four times more Buicks than were sold in North America as a whole. In the US, the Buick Encore accounted for almost half of all US sales with 97,311 units as Buick spent the summer trying to keep up with demand of the subcompact crossover. Likewise, China-only models like the GL8 minivan and Excelle sedan (same as the US-spec Verano) were strong sellers in that market.
For good measure, Buick more than doubled its sales in Mexico with 2,319 units. Scroll down for the full press release.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China
Fri, 19 Apr 2013It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
