......That's the car in my last post https://www.mecum.com/lots/1117236/1967-buick-gs400-convertible/?aa_id=582440-0
My mostly unrestored 71 GS 350, Cortez Gold. Tilt wheel, and that's about it. No power windows, no AC. I got it with a sport steering wheel and the chrome wheels, but I assume those were added. I currently don't have a build sheet.
We'll keep this old thread going. '71 GS (350) waiting in the wings (basket case & came to me apart). Burnished Cinnamon, Sandalwood Top, Pearl White split fold bench interior. Special ordered by a single lady (traded in her '69 Skylark Convertible). Factory Options: Auto, PDB, PS, AM/FM/Rear Speaker, N25, WW tires, posi rear, Forced Comfort-Flo (1 of 7 '71 GS convertibles w/it), tinted glass, Remote Mirror, bumper & door edge guards, body side molding, gauges/Rallye Clock, PW, P-Seat, speedminder (IIRC), Convenience Group, Rallye Steering wheel, chrome wheels. She specifically "didn't want the big engine" but & other than that & not ordering F-41, 4-sp, performance axle ratio, or HD cooling, she did a pretty nice job w/options and colors (ironically the only other '71 GS I've ever owned was also Burnished Cinnamon). Kinda suprised it didn't have tilt &/or 8-track, Cruise, or PDL & especially rear defrost (Pittsburgh car & driven in winter) but I probably won't add them. So far have just collected a lot of parts for it.
1960 Electra 225, one of the most heavily optioned black on black & grey leather power bucket seat cars with storage console a/c etc I have ever seen,but in rough shape I these days unfortunately. Pic from back when the family (and me!) were still young
Wow! Pretty much opposite of mine in terms of options. It will be very unique and I'd love to see it finished.
Me too! Thanks! Never wanted a convertible per se but some combo. of the colors, options, & back story on this one really pulled me in. I'll start a resto thread on it one day w/the story but even though it was apart when I got it (had been since the late 80's), it was obvious the car had been well cared for.
