This is a very nice Buick Electra 225.  It is a matching numbers car.  It has a 401 engine and power steering. The  power brake booster and master cyclinder have just been rebuilt. The power seat switch and motor work but the seat does not move.  The body on this Buick is just as straight as they come.  As you look down the sides all the chrome and bright work is straight.  The grill is straight and not broken and the bumpers are straight with no dents .  The Buick interior is all original with original radio. The interior needs to be replaced.  The windshield is cracked but all the other window glass is good.  Fuel sending unit goes to full when original key is on.  The windshield and sending unit can be found on line.  The Buick shows 79,000 miles which looks to be correct.  This Buick drives and stops straight.  The underside of this car looks like it has never been on a gravel road.  It is that clean looking.  It also has the original bumper jack.

Things that have been replaced include a new alumium radiator and carborator.  It has a clear title.  It appears that this Buick has spent most of its life inside and has no rust in floors, trunk or anywhere else. This Buick being accident free and rust free wil save $$$$$ in body work. The Buick was originally light green.  There is a story to how the Buick got painted the way it is now but that is a whole other story.

eBay Find of the Day: 1981 DeLorean with 570-hp twin-turbo Buick V6 [w/videos]

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

"Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?" So asked one Marty McFly of his mentor Dr. Emmett Brown, who replied: "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"
Doc Brown was right, of course: with an exotic mid-engine layout, gullwing doors and stainless steel body, the DeLorean DMC-12 sure looked the part. It just needed a little more juice. Well this one might not have 1.21 gigawatts of time-bending power - that'd be more than one and a half million horsepower - but it does have more than the 150 hp in the the standard 2.8-liter V6.
That's because this particular DeLorean has had its stock Peugeot Renault Volvo engine swapped out for a Buick-sourced, all-aluminum, 4.3-liter V6 from the Grand National. Dutteiller Performance didn't leave the engine in stock form, either: while they were swapping it out, they added a pair of turbochargers, new pistons, crank, cams and much, much more.

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.

2013 Buick Encore

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

City, Slicker
We admit it. We have no earthly idea how this whole thing is going to shake out.
Typically, after driving a new car or truck, we come away prepared to hazard a guess as to whether said model has a good chance of being a sales success. We've amassed enough time watching the industry, scrutinizing the competitors, and so on, to make a reasonably educated bet. Yet here we are, days removed from driving the new 2013 Buick Encore, and we still have no bloody idea.
