Vehicle Detail

THIS IS THE REAL DEAL! THIS CAR CAME OFF OF THE FACTORY LINE AS A 1970 BUICK GS!!! But this is not just your average Buick GS! You are bidding on a Very Nice and Very Unique Highly Optioned 1970 Buick GS now sporting a 455 Stage 1 engine. This car has within the last year received an OUTSTANDING, DEEP, SMOOTH, MIRROR LIKE finish of Base Coat / Clear Coat Saturn Yellow paint, Satin Black painted hood and side stripes outlined in red and a brand new Black vinyl top. This eye catching paint scheme was chosen to respectfully pay tribute to one of the most Prestigious of the Muscle Car era, the Buick GSX . Although not a GSX it does have the Looks, Heart and Soul of the unique and unforgettable Buick GSX and with a little extra under the hood. The Heartbeat of this car is kept in rhythm by a 1971 Buick 455 Stage 1 Engine. The engine and entire drivetrain has been completely rebuilt and the specs are as follows: 455 CID bored .030/Balanced and Blueprinted Sealed Power Forged Aluminum Pistons (Approximately 10:1 Compression) Stage 1 Heads Ported and Polished and include Stage 1 Valves, Heavy Duty Stage 1 valve springs and push rods Stock Buick Cast Iron Intake that was ported and polished matched to the heads Stage 1 high volume high pressure oil pump Comp Cams 280 camshaft Stage 1 high volume mechanical fuel pump Holley Carburetor Buick HEI ignition Poston 1 7/8” long tube headers w/ 3” collectors 3” head pipes into turbo mufflers High torque mini starter Modine four core radiator Trunk Mount Battery Turbo 400 transmission with ATI shift kit (As factory offered in a 67 Buick GS) Switch/Pitch Torque Converter – 1500/3000 stall (As factory offered in a 67 Buick GS) GM 10 bolt 3.23 rear Rear Anti-Sway Bar All of this and Luxury too!! In this uniquely optioned car you can ride in comfort and class. The highly sought after features and options included in this car are as follows: Bucket Seats with Console and Factory Floor Shifter Close Ratio Power Steering Power Front Disc Brakes Power Windows Power Drivers Seat Tilt Column Buick Sport Steering Wheel Light Package (Includes trunk light, rear view mirror mounted map light, C-pillar portal lights and front driver and passenger floor lights) Factory Air Conditioning (Compressor not installed but will go with the car) Factory Rear Window Defroster Exterior Chrome Trim Package (Includes wheel well mouldings and Chrome 15x7 Rally Wheels) Windshield Washer Tinted Windshield Day/Night Interior Rear View Mirror Driver and Passenger Sport Mirrors Remote Drivers Mirror Front GSX Chin Spoiler In addition to these factory options this car has a remarkable sound system consisting of a Sony 5710 in-dash stereo unit that includes an under dash XM satellite radio cradle with a trunk mounted, remote controlled, 10 CD changer. To drive the sound to the rear deck mounted Kicker 6x9 speakers and the kick panel mounted 6” round speakers is a trunk mounted 200 watt amp. This sound system fits this car perfectly. Not too overwhelming and not lost to the size of the cabin. The kick panels are custom made and are designed specifically to house the 6” speakers. You will feel like you are FRONT ROW at the concert of your choice as you cruise in comfort, luxury and performance. The windshield was replaced and the track cleaned and was installed with new sealant. All side window sweeps and seals are new. All key locks including the ignition lock and exterior door handles are brand new. The interior has been re-upholstered and shows very nice. The center sections of the door and rear side panels were upholstered in a more modern velour fabric as were the center panels of the seats. The carpet and floor mats still look new and show no fading. The metal part of the dash was repainted and shows nicely. The gauge cluster is decent, the padded dash top has NO CRACKS or obvious blemishes and looks very nice. The headliner appears to be original and in very nice condition. The sport steering wheel is in very nice condition and has no visible cracks or serious blemishes. The rear bumper was just recently re-chromed and looks fantastic. The exterior stainless is over-all very nice. The doors open and shut easily and the hinges are tight. All body panels appear to line up well and all seams appear to be relatively even. All body lines and panels appear to be very straight. Though I don’t know the total history of this car it doesn’t appear to have been in any serious accidents or fender benders. The ORIGINAL GS GRILL is in excellent condition and has absolutely no cracks or stress fractures that I can find. I noted this in BOLD print because it is very hard to find an original 70 GS grill in this nice of condition. It has been restored to original color combination of light argent and black. I have seen ones described to be in this condition go for $1000.00 or more. All exterior emblems have been replaced and look as new. The undercarriage of this car is very nice and has been cleaned and repainted back to its original flat black color. The engine compartment has been restored to factory condition. The floor pans and trunk floor are in excellent condition and have never had any corrosive rust or been repaired. The pictures of the trunk floor show its unmolested originality. All lights and accessories work as they were intended including all factory and aftermarket gauges. The rear tires are only a few months old and the front tires, although a few years old, are in very good condition and show very little wear. THE FACTORY DUAL SCOOP GS 455 AIR CLEANER ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN REFINISHED AND IS INCLUDED WITH THE CAR!! The Buick GS line of cars was designed to be a sporty classy car with not only style and luxury but performance that exceeded most factory produced cars of the time and yet handled like a cat!! THIS CAR IS NO EXCEPTION!!! And with the performance upgrades that have been added to this car it still holds its own in today’s performance car arena. This car is a fantastic driver and I would not hesitate to drive it across the country and back just as you see it. If you want to be the center of attention at your local car cruise or show then this is the car for you!!! After it catches their eye it will capture their hearts with its AGGRESSIVE STAGE 1 GROWL!!!! IT ALWAYS DRAWS A CROWD EVERYWHERE IT GOES!!! THIS CAR IS READY TO SHOW AND READY TO DRIVE!!!

YES this car was originally produced as a GS!!!
