There's alot of nice cars here but you be the judge.I'm partial but when it comes to looks the 1975 Buick Century "Free Spirit"Indy Pace Replicars blow the rest away.1800 produced very few left.How many have you seen?

I remember seeing those when I was a kid growing up in Chicago. Hard to believe only 1800 were made. Very nice looking car.

Those are both cool cars. What color was the '74 originally.

I thought that car looked familar . I was given the opportunity to buy this car and a blue GS455 suncoupe at the same time . A young man from the Baltimore Md area . He brought pics to the NATS sometime in the mid 90s I think . I could never get delivery of the cars nailed down and as things go I bought a 70 GS and eventually forgot these cars , but looking back I have several pictures somewhere of both the balck Stage 1 and the blue GS 455 . I'll try to locate and scann

The last time I saw one of those in person I was a kid.I really think this body style will catch on alot more in the coming years as the older A-Bodies are getting more expensive and harder to come by.I gotta say the more I see them the more I like them.

2pace, I tried to buy that exact car from the original owner over 10 years ago. I would see it around town every once in a while after he sold it. The car was in good shape other than the decals were cracked. I always liked that car. It had Hooker headers, chrome side pipes and factory wheels on it when I looked at it.
