Description of 1971 Buick GS 455 GS |
1971 Buick GS 455 Stage 1 Convertible If you have been always wanted a GS Stage 1 Convertible, butdon't want to spend 100k plus, this is the next best thing. This is a very nicely done recreation of a Stage 1. This started life as a Buick Skylark, that the original owner purchased after he wrecked his GS 455 in 1973. The car has adyno tuned 482hp 71 Stage 1 headed 455 in it. The motor has maybe 4000 miles on it, correct Stage 1 Valve Covers, ect. This is a pretty accurate Stage 1 Recreation, even was a OW tag on the transmission, has a 3.55 Eaton Posi rear end, front and rear sway bars, amazing SSexhaust,aluminum radiator, ect. Excellent interior, even has the original 8 track still in it. No rips,tears, ect. The car itself is a older albeit well held up restorationwith a recent mechanical restoration. The car shows very well, everything works the way it should, sheetmetal is rock solid and the car runs great. It is a tilt wheel A/C car, the compressor and a fewcomponents are currently off the car, but I believe I have most, if not all of them. The history on this car is a man from Texas purchased this car in 1985 as a beautiful 1 owner Skylark Convertible and had it converted with his 1971 Buick GS Stage 1 that he wrecked over a decade earlier, and in essence, created everything a Stage 1 should be. This owner passed away in the early 2000's and his wife sold the car for HUGE money to a unsuspecting buyer who thought the car was a REAL DEAL Stage 1 because of all the real GM parts on it. Apparently hewasn't big on looking at the VIN and that shows the car was originally a Skylark. He lost his butt on the car, sold it to another gentleman who spent a lot of money on the car to make it the street screamer it is today! I bought the car because it is just a amazing driver. It will scare you with its looks,sound, and performance. The car shows well and drives even better. It is a great driver, I'm a Pontiac guy myself but had to have it. My hobbies have changed and I am selling this car off as well as the rest of my collection. You can call me at any reasonable hour.
