1956 Buick Century on 2040-cars
Jonesboro, Louisiana, United States
|
Up for bids is this old original 1956 buick 4 door hard top. This is a neat old car that is pretty much all original and unmolested. It would make a nice car to clear coat and leave as is to just make a cheap cruiser out of or if you want to restore it all the way. The car is very solid. The body has very little rust. There is a little rust in the rear floor pans and where the spare tire goes in the truck. Other than that this is a pretty solid car. The interior is original and for being 58 years old I would say its in pretty good shape. The glass is all in it except for the drivers vent glass is broke. It has the original nail head V8. It will need rebuilding but its all there with the transmission. It was a power steering and A/C car. This was a highly optioned car for back then. It was also a automatic. I have alot of extra parts to go with it as well. I got this in on a trade so I really don't know alot about these cars except for what is obvious so if you have questions or need more pictures please ask. The previous owner took the body off the frame and had it painted and had the front end work done on it. It was a good start that never got finished. The car is located in Jonesboro Louisiana. I have a clear title to it. I will accept cash in person, certified bank check, or bank wire transfer as payment for the car. I will hold it as long as needed but will require full payment to be made within seven days of the end of auction. The car will roll and steer for loading purposes.

GM recalling 1.5M cars in China for faulty bracket
Fri, 27 Dec 2013General Motors and its Chinese partners have announced their second recall in the People's Republic this year, following a 2,653-unit recall of the Cadillac SRX earlier this year. This latest recall affects nearly 1.5 million cars built between 2006 and 2012. It's not explicitly stated, but as there's no movement from the US NHTSA, we suspect that the cars in question were all Chinese-built rather than imports.
The vast majority of the affected vehicles are Buick Excelles (pictured), with 1.2 million units being recalled over a faulty bracket that's meant to secure the fuel pump. The Excelles in question were built between 2006 and 2012, while an additional 250,000 Chevrolet Sail superminis, built between April 2009 and October 2011, are being recalled for a similar reason.
According to the PRC's Administration for Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, the faulty bracket could crack and potentially cause a fuel leak.
The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
GM China President says automaker could export vehicles from China to US
Sat, 20 Apr 2013At a press conference on Saturday at the Shanghai Motor Show, General Motors announced plans to further expand its presence in the Chinese market. Among those commitments are plans to build four new plants by the end of 2015, giving the automaker the capacity to produce around five million vehicles a year in the country.
In order to make the most of that expansion, GM is adding 400 dealerships in China this year alone (for a total of 4,200 sales points), and it's eyeing 5,100 dealers by 2015. Yet not all of that production will stay in China - GM is planning to increase exports as well. Officials estimate the company will export somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 Chinese-built vehicles this year - a record. And it's gunning for more.
Autoblog asked GM China president Bob Socia (above) if that means the company might eventually export new vehicles built in China to the United States, and he responded:
