Location:

Up for bid a beautiful 1949 Buick RoadMaster 4 door sedan. It was previously owned by a true Buick enthusiast and this was one of his babies. meticulously maintained and well cared for. It was always garaged and showed with pride. It has a strong motor Buick Super Eight straight 8 cylinder engine that was completely rebuilt. It starts right and purrs like a kitten with one push of the gas pedal (a unique and cool way to start your car well known to Buick lovers). This was the early version of push button start like we see in new cars nowadays. The tranny has also been rebuilt prior and shifts good. It is equipped with Dynaflow transmission which was the same concept as the CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) of today's cars. It was forward thinking at that time and definitely one a kind to American cars of that era. Just smooth- sailing cruising.

Interior has been redone at some point and it shows well, it had new seats, new carpet and pads, new headliner and door panels. It was garaged all the time and was just driven occasionally. It has a very nice steering wheel, and the interior has lots of chrome pieces, dash looks good as well as the gauges. Horn works, all the lights work, wiper works, odometer doesn't, speedometer works, radio is intermittent, it has a couple of rock chip in the windshield, map light works, heater works.

Paint is was redone about 14 years ago Buick green with base and clear coat. A good driver quality but could still get better with wetsanding and buffing. Although an older restoration, the paint still shines very well. It has some dents and pitting in the grill and trims and bottom body. It has a 2" bubbled crack in the bottom of the passenger fender that shows prior repair. The chassis is solid. The front and rear bumpers have been triple re-chromed to the tune of $950 back in '01 and still looks great. It has a good set of wide white walls (must have for this Buick!).  I have folder of receipts not including time and personal labor totaling to over $13,500 invested into this Buick. Overall a great cruiser Buick Roadmaster that is hard to come by and a lot of time and money has been sent that is yours to reap!

Buick Encore takes a hit of Mokka to tackle Dakar

Wed, 03 Sep 2014

There 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.

Updated Buick LaCrosse, Regal to debut at New York Auto Show

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Judging by the spy shots we saw last week for the 2014 Buick LaCrosse and 2014 Buick Regal, we knew it wouldn't be much longer until we saw both sedans receive a grand debut. Today, Buick confirmed to Autoblog both cars will be introduced at the New York Auto Show next month, but no further information has yet been released about either model.
Having been on the market for an extra couple years, the changes to the LaCrosse appear to be more significant than those coming for the Regal, but both will be getting refreshed exterior designs as well as updated interiors. The Regal's new face brings it more in line with the all-new Encore and the restyled Enclave, while the LaCrosse should get a more distinctive, upscale appearance.
Both cars will be introduced exactly a month from today, and we'll be there to bring you all the coverage.

GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy

Mon, 05 May 2014

With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
