1969 - Buick Skylark on 2040-cars
East Rutherford, New Jersey, United States
This is a beautiful and rare car. This is one of only 213 convertible 4speed GS400's built in 1969. The original build sheet (see photo) is included. The car drives and looks great! The motor is a 455 (not original). It runs strong. It's always garage kept. The convertible top was changed at some point but the convertible weather stripping is original. All of the other weather stripping has been replaced along the way. At one time or another, most parts have needed repair or replacement. Brakes, power steering pump, some wire harnesses, tires, alternator, windshield wiper motor, seat covers etc. Everything works on this car. Some parts are not from a Gran Sport. Such as the radiator shroud, overflow, windshield washer tank, interior front door panels. All the chrome is in excellent shape (no rust). There is an additional stereo system under the passenger seat that you can plug in your phone or i pod. 2 additional speakers are hidden in the front interior kick plates (air vents). The Rochester carb was just rebuilt. The owners manual, original full size brochure and shop manual are included. The spare tire is brand new. The seals on the Muncie trans were replaced. The under body of the car is in good shape. This is an amazing opportunity to own a very rare muscle car, at a great price!

GM China President says automaker could export vehicles from China to US
Sat, 20 Apr 2013At a press conference on Saturday at the Shanghai Motor Show, General Motors announced plans to further expand its presence in the Chinese market. Among those commitments are plans to build four new plants by the end of 2015, giving the automaker the capacity to produce around five million vehicles a year in the country.
In order to make the most of that expansion, GM is adding 400 dealerships in China this year alone (for a total of 4,200 sales points), and it's eyeing 5,100 dealers by 2015. Yet not all of that production will stay in China - GM is planning to increase exports as well. Officials estimate the company will export somewhere between 100,000 and 130,000 Chinese-built vehicles this year - a record. And it's gunning for more.
Autoblog asked GM China president Bob Socia (above) if that means the company might eventually export new vehicles built in China to the United States, and he responded:
Buick Riviera Concept debuts in China
Fri, 19 Apr 2013It's nighttime in China, and Buick has just concluded an evening event the day before the first - and only - press day of the Shanghai Motor Show. The star of this evening's party was the Buick Riviera concept vehicle, a plug-in electric hybrid coupe that the automaker says gives a glimpse at its future design direction, not to mention resurrecting some nomenclature from the brand's history that includes a similarly named concept from 2007.
The shape of the Riviera is said to be inspired by water. While the traditional Buick "waterfall" grille is present, the front end gains a more aggressive note thanks to what appear to be vertical air inlets below each headlight.
As for the concept's drivetrain, Buick says it uses General Motors' new dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system, or W-PHEV for short. The keyword there is 'wireless,' as the Riviera can charge its onboard battery packs with a traditional cable or wirelessly via a "sensory recharge panel" underneath the car.
The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights
Sun, 01 Sep 2013Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
