Unfortunately I am in a position where I have to sell my Skylark. This car was originally owned by my ex-wife's grandmother which she bought new in 1970. I bought it from her approximately four years ago. The car was driven on a regular basis until two years ago when I pulled the original Buick 350. The car now has a fresh Chevrolet small block 406. The motor has zero miles on it other than a few dyno pulls to which it hit approximately 550 hp and about the same in torque. The carb on the motor in the pictures is not included. The motor is currently just sitting in the car and has not been started since setting it in there. There is no transmission in the car, nor is one included. I do have the driveshaft. The rearend is the stock single track ten bolt. There is also no radiator included. I do have the original front bumper, it has been rechromed and just needs reinstalled. The car is extremely solid overall and still sports the original paint. These cars are getting extremely hard to find in this condition. It has always been garaged until this year when I was forced to remove it from storage. I can not stand the thought of it sitting outside through the winter. There is some rust around the front windshield and rear glass. There is also a little bit of rust in the lower front fender about the size of my fist. I will post more photos of these areas as soon as I can. The Weld wheels are included. The two front tires are brand new and the rear tires are brand new 275/60/15 Mickey Thompson ET Streets. The car also has relatively new air shocks on the rear. This car is the perfect winter project. There is over ten thousand in the motor alone, not to mention another fifteen hundred in wheels and tires. I will require a five hundred dollar non-refundable deposit within 48 hours. After that, I will release the car upon the transfer of funds. I do have the clear title in hand. Remember this, if you bid on it, then you bought it. Please ask any questions ahead of time. I will answer all questions to the best of my knowledge. The car is also being advertised locally. I am up for offers, so feel free to e-mail me. Thanks for looking.

2014 Buick LaCrosse to sticker at $34,060*
Tue, 18 Jun 2013Buick first showed the facelifted 2014 LaCrosse at this year's New York Auto Show, and General Motors' luxury-ish arm has now confirmed that pricing for the updated sedan will start at $34,060 (*including $925 for destination), a increase of $1,505 over the 2013 model.
Buyers will be treated to an updated appearance, both inside and out. On the outside, tweaks were made to the LaCrosse's front and rear fascias, and new wheels are on offer (though the ones seen on the car pictured above seem to have been simply pulled from the 2011 Regal Turbo). Inside, there's a much cleaner center stack layout, complete with a standard eight-inch reconfigurable touchscreen IntelliLink interface. Buick is also offering a new Ultra Luxury interior package ($2,495), featuring Tamo Ash wood throughout the cabin, black synthetic suede on the headliner and leather seats in a new sangria color. Standalone options include different wheels, Bose audio, rear seat entertainment, navigation and a sunroof.
The 2014 LaCrosse's base powertrain is the trusty 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with eAssist, which is capable of achieving up to 36 miles per gallon on the highway. But for folks wanting more power, a 304-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 is available as a no-cost option, available with either front- or all-wheel drive.
Buick Envision CUV launches in China, is America next?
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Buick is launching its new midsize Envision crossover in China at the Chengdu Motor Show, where it will slot between the subcompact Encore and larger Enclave. While it might be hard to muster too much excitement about a Chinese-market crossover, don't completely ignore this one. There's a very good chance it could be on sale in North America to fill the same hole in the brand's lineup over here, possibly as a 2016 model.
We recently spied the Envision completely undisguised as it was arriving at the Chengdu show for its debut. The CUV still looks like a stretched Encore from some front angles, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's got a similar oversized grille, hood vents (presumably faux) and large greenhouse as its little brother. Where the midsize CUV differs is its prominent crease running down the side and the different rear treatment, with wing-shaped trim cutting into the taillights.
The interior looks like a pretty nice place to spend time, too, with a predictable mix of leather, wood and metal, and it should be quiet in there with its active noise cancelation system. Infotainment is provided by an eight-inch touchscreen with a touchpad and voice controls.
eBay Find of the Day: 1981 DeLorean with 570-hp twin-turbo Buick V6 [w/videos]
Mon, 23 Dec 2013"Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?" So asked one Marty McFly of his mentor Dr. Emmett Brown, who replied: "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"
Doc Brown was right, of course: with an exotic mid-engine layout, gullwing doors and stainless steel body, the DeLorean DMC-12 sure looked the part. It just needed a little more juice. Well this one might not have 1.21 gigawatts of time-bending power - that'd be more than one and a half million horsepower - but it does have more than the 150 hp in the the standard 2.8-liter V6.
That's because this particular DeLorean has had its stock Peugeot Renault Volvo engine swapped out for a Buick-sourced, all-aluminum, 4.3-liter V6 from the Grand National. Dutteiller Performance didn't leave the engine in stock form, either: while they were swapping it out, they added a pair of turbochargers, new pistons, crank, cams and much, much more.
