Wildcat was aquired 5 years ago from the second owners They had owned the car
since it was only 4 years old. It was built in California, sold in California
when new and has lived all its life in
California before being brought locally here to WA about a decade ago. This is
one of those rare condition survivors… a very solid California car, very well
taken care of, actual low miles & always well maintained. It has a vintage
TOW PACKAGE for you vintage trailer or boat collectors, with heavy duty setup
that can tow full sized loads with lots of power and 445 lbs. of torque.
I have had
it professionally repainted the factory SURF GREEN metallic paint, in a high
quality 2-stage with clear coat paint done by a local shop noted for show cars.
The body was ground down to bare metals, all little dents removed for flawless
final paint. The paint was a difficult match to get the actual original
metallic color of the Surf Green. The final result was stunning! The Surf Green
has lots of metallic, and deep silver to a touch of gold hues when the sun hits
it. The photos do not do it justice. I
have also recently had the interior fully redone at a professional upholstery
shop that also does show quality cars. All new quality OEM padded loop carpets
that exactly matched the factory color, professionally reupholstered interior
using the very highest quality of materials, a thick Buick Surf Green with cream
vinyl pleated inserts. The car also has a new professionally installed OEM
textured headliner in off white.
This Buick
Special runs and drives very nicely. It has lots of power, handles and drives
easily and shifts cleanly through the gears. The factory & numbers matching
big block 401 Nailhead V8 engine has had a prior rebuild, with not many miles
on it coupled with its fully redone GM Buick 3-speed automatic transmission. The
4-V Nailhead is called the “445” due to the amazing 445 lbs of torque it
produces. You can see by the photos that the original air cleaner and all parts
under the hood are amazing condition. From the newer radiator, to newer
battery, to all new hoses, tune up and belts this car is in top mechanical
condition. This is one of those rare cars that will always fire right up, runs
smooth and strong and can take you across the country without hesitation. I
have had this car on weekend road trips, full freeway speeds and road cruising well
over 70mph and this car is amazing. I elected to keep the vintage heavy duty
tow package on the car, with hopes of someday having a tear drop vintage
trailer to match. Car has the internal adjustable drivers side mirror, full
power brakes and power steering… all in good condition. I am a Buick collector
and have put later model Buick Rally wheels on the car. I have not yet replaced
them back with the original 15” Wildcat rims, which have beautiful new quality
all weather whitewall radials. These will be put back on the car with the rare
set of mint condition factory Wildcat hubcaps. The second set is available to
buyer if desired. Original spare and jack assemblies still in the car. This is
a very early production & RARE 2-dr HT Wildcat in surf green! All exterior chrome are shiny and excellent stainless trims. This car would make a great “Low Rider” or keep stock for weekend car shows, cruisin town or family fun. It always gets a “thumbs up” … “cool car” or “nice car!” wherever it goes. AN INVESTMENT QUALITY & Weekend "SHOW & GO" car that you can drive anywhere & enjoy MUST SELL

Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]
Wed, 17 Oct 2012As we reported earlier, there has been much speculation regarding a Buick convertible of sorts. The most ringing endorsement of this conjecture comes today from General Motors Europe, as the new Opel Cascada has debuted on the interwebs. Opel calls the four-passenger Cascada an "athletic, glamorous midsize convertible." With a length of 4,697mm (185 in.), the Cascada is as long as an Audi A5, to which GM has said it would be slightly larger.
The Cascada, which is Spanish for waterfall, features a cloth convertible top that retracts in 17 seconds and at speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph). The Cascada features a 1.4-liter turbo gas engine, 2.0-liter turbodiesel with 165 horsepower and a range-topping 1.6-liter turbocharged Ecotec engine that puts out 170 horsepower and 280 Nm (207 lb-ft). Power is sent through either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.
According to GM, the Cascada will also come rife with luxury and tech features. In addition to adaptive forward lighting and ergonomic heated front seats, the convertible will feature Opel Eye, which is a front camera that can recognize traffic signs and incorporates lane departure warning and forward collision alert.
Buick Adam a reality after all... but only in China
Mon, 03 Mar 2014General Motors may have parred down its brand portfolio, but it still has more under its umbrella than most. That's why, while a company like Ford might market the same vehicle under its own name in markets around the world, GM uses different brands in different markets. But no two are aligned quite as closely as Opel in Europe and Buick in the United States and China.
What we know here as the Buick Regal is sold overseas as the Opel Insignia. Our Encore is their Mokka. Verano? Astra sedan. But one thing we don't get here is the Opel Adam. The diminutive city car is GM's take on the Mini Cooper, Fiat 500, Citroën DS3 et al. Launched at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the Opel Adam is named after the company's founder (like an ironic thumbing of the nose to the Ferrari Enzo). But while it's sold, like most Opels, in the UK as a Vauxhall, the prospect of it porting over to Buick seems slim to none. Right?
Sorta. While the Adam isn't likely to come Stateside, the latest reports (as yet unconfirmed by GM) suggest that The General is planning to sell the Adam in China where the Buick brand is also a strong seller. Local production could ensue, with prices targeting the Fiat 500 and engines - according to CarNewsChina.com - to include inline-fours displacing 1.2 and 1.4 liters with 69 and 100 horsepower, respectively.
Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar
Wed, 03 Sep 2014There are many vehicles we'd consider taking racing. Even on a cross-country rally as punishing as the Dakar. But a Buick Encore? That's not one that would enter our motorsports-based consciousness. Yet it's basically what General Motors is entering in the South American rally raid this year, and you're looking at it.
Unveiled at the Moscow Motor Show, this rally machine is based on (or at least billed as) an Opel Mokka - the name that GM's European brand applies to the vehicle Americans know as the Encore, Buick's subcompact crossover. Only it's obviously been extensively modified. It's got a ten-inch raised suspension, a 137-gallon fuel tank, carbon-fiber bodywork and... hold on, we're sure we're missing something here. Oh, right: a 6.2-liter V8 kicking out 340 horsepower and 487 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox.
In other words, this is not the same Encore (or Mokka) you can pick up at your local Buick, Opel or Vauxhall dealership. It's not even close. It's not even recognizable as such, really. It was unveiled alongside a more sedate Opel Mokka Moscow Edition and a slew of other local debuts for the Opel brand that you can read more about in the (translated and original) Russian press release below.
