Looking for a factory blue or green '70 GS350 with either a 3speed or a 4 speed. Bonuses if: - Blue, green or white interior. Don't really want black. - AC is a big bonus - 3sp on the column is the ultimate bonus. Will buy a complete car or a project as long as it has the right options.
Chris, this one fails for being 69 and black interior, but home runs for 3 on the tree and a/c. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/buick/gran-sport/2094823.html?refer=alert
I'd sent Chris a link to this one a while back, but he's pretty dead set on a '70 w/AC & only certain colors (I was hoping he'd bite). He & I are both 350 manual trans fans. That's a really neat and super unusual car and IMHO reasonably priced. The stepchild of stepchildren as you coined them Ted - Maybe someday the 350 cars will get some respect. If this car fit in my life right now, I'd probably already have it - The stepchildren (I've has a few wagons) are growing on me.
Absolutely love that car. Sure wish it was a '70, I'd have already mailed a check. Just never been as big of a fan of the '69 body style. Really, really neat car.
Great catch! Thanks for the heads up, sent him a note. That's a winner if it's anything like what the photos show. Fingers are crossed!
IN CASE you find rare,..I have a 3 speed manual shift steering column.... and an iron case 3 speed tranny from the same car. . . WHeelz, Tampa Bay
Was able to get Sloan to do a quick turnaround for me, verified that it's a factory 4sp car. Sold new in Portland. Wrapping it up. Bob, I owe you big time!
Congratulations Chris ,4 speed cars are hard to come by.I would like to see some more pictures of it.
Gosh, how many years ago did I sell that car to you? I bet it has been a decade now. Still miss it, but glad I was able to acquire this one. It's one of my favorite color combos, really can't wait to get it here.
