1968 Buick Skylark convertible with only 54k miles. I was on the way to a full restoration but have to let it go unfinished. I will start to say that everything mechanical was restored and this car runs and drives like new engine is whisper quiet and smooth. Transmission was rebuilt, engine had gaskets and seals and full paint restoration at that time and no leaks anywhere everything was done from belts hoses etc. needs nothing! Brakes are all new as well exhaust system. Shocks and tires are new and battery too. The seats have been restored professional and look like factory new, rest of interior parts are great. I have a complete new carpet kit, all door seals and window seals included. All the exterior stainless trim is present and in excellent shape with many spares included that were collected through the years to make an excellent set. I had found a better rear bumper and had it re chromed which is also included and seen in pics, front bumper is great. I don't have the fender skirts but do have the stainless rear wheel well trim instead, the body still has the tabs for skirts. The top is fairly new and in perfect shape and goes up and down with the dash button perfectly. The boot cover is good but could use some of the plastic attaching clips. Original spare tire and jack in trunk. The floors and trunk are 100% solid with no rust through just surface rust, scuff and paint. The whole underside, frame and body was cleaned, painted with epoxy paint. Door jams, trunk and under hood yellow areas are already painted. The only thing left to do is the outside body work. The rear quarter panels will need the most work, front fenders and doors real good shape, again the outer body is the only thing left to do and then you will have an outstanding classic. I have someone that can assist in delivery if needed. I am located 45 minutes west of Milwaukee. You can call me with any questions if you would like. Paul @ 262-470-0604
On Jun-13-14 at 06:49:55 PDT, seller added the following information: I had a question from someone about what trim is there. the dual trim strips are there that run down the center of the trunk, the strip is there that runs down the center of the hood and on the backside of hood. all the trim is there that runs down the curved body lines on the side of car. and all the trim around headlamps and upper door and window edges. everything is included I guess a lot of the 68's are missing that side curved body trim which I think really makes the look of the car. |

GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect
Fri, 13 Jun 2014General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.
Buick Envision spied fully disrobed in China
Wed, 27 Aug 2014The Buick Envision crossover is supposed to have its big reveal on August 28 and be on display at the Chengdu Motor Show, but apparently the new midsize crossover just can't wait to meet its public. Car News China caught a completely undisguised example parking outside of the convention center where the show is held.
The Buick designers are going right down the middle with the styling with nothing too flashy to turn off potential buyers. Still, it's a handsome CUV that kind of looks like a stretched Encore from some angles with vents along the hood, a large greenhouse and a prominent crease running down the side.
This new midsizer is hitting the Chinese market first and reportedly rides on GM's Delta platform that's also found underneath the Buick Verano. According to Car News China, prices there are between 160,000 yuan and 220,000 yuan ($26,000 - $35,800 at current rates). However, it's also rumored to eventually make its way across the Pacific to give Buick buyers in the US an option between the Encore compact crossover and larger Enclave.
J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998
Wed, 12 Feb 2014For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.
