I have two 1997 Park Avenues that I want to sell as a package deal.

Car 1: Green. (VIN: 1G4CW52K3V4629657)  This car is my daily driver. Clear Title. 301,000 miles but runs good, shifts good, etc. Interior is good except place on back of driver's seat back which is worn through and seatbelt cover missing on back of passenger's seat. Power windows, door locks, seats all work great. 3.8 liter V-6 engine has small oil leak (don't need to add oil between changes) and small coolant leak (I top it off every couple weeks). Check engine light comes on sometimes registering an evaporative fuel recovery system error code. A/C compressor related parts were replaced summer of 2012. Very cold air. Brakes work fine but ABS light is on, so no ABS (assume sensor is bad). Aluminum wheels good, tires poor. Gas gauge is starting to fail intermittently, so I just fill up every 300 miles to make sure. Paint is bad on trunk and there is a rust spot on left rear quarter. The hood has a small dent and crease where I hit a deer. Also, the grill is cracked. This car has been in my family since 2002 with about 70k miles. Aftermarket Eclipse CD/MP3 disc player. Makes a good daily driver getting between 25 and 30 mpg highway.

Car 2: Maroon. (VIN: 1G4CW52KOV4647291)  This car has a bad engine (blown head gasket?) and has been parked for several years. Clear Title. Around 220,000 miles (no battery so don't know the exact number). Everything worked great except for the engine when it was parked. Interior is in better shape that the green car, but the paint is really bad and/or missing. Good for parts or repairing engine and slapping a paint job on it to make it a daily driver. One door panel is off but it is in the back seat. Chrome wheels clean up pretty nicely, tires poor. This car has been in my family since 2004 with 116K miles.

These cars are to be picked up in Franklin, KY.  The green car may be driven but the maroon car must be hauled.
I may be able to deliver these within a reasonable distance for the right price. Contact me for details.

Buick GN and GNX will return

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades

Sun, 21 Apr 2013

Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
