Hello everyone, Kevin Jr from SE Michigan Lost my dad a few months back and were trying to determine what to do with his Buick. He owned it 25 years and fully restored it back in 2000. I love the car and not entirely set on selling it, but seeking some guidance on the idea of selling it, mainly asking price. 72 GS convertible, 455 with a turbo 400 trans. Has hood tach, automatic on the column, rear bumper has exhaust coming through it (he always said it was a rare bumper), GSX paint scheme, white interior, black top I would say the car is 9/10 condition. He restored it to drive it so some small rock chips up front but really have to look.
Welcome from Florida! Sorry about your Dad. Looks like he did a great job on that car. I would keep it... but that's just me.
Welcome! Sorry for your loss. Your dad did a great job on the car and appears to have done it for his personal tastes. The value is...it depends. Was it a frame off? How original is the car? Do you have a build sheet? Obviously the paint scheme is unique. No GSX convertibles were made by Buick (I believe this to be true, but you never know). So to market the car you will be looking for someone with the same taste. 1972 GS 455 Convertibles in stock appearance restored are around $85K (Hagerty). Yours may go for less as it is not "stock", or may go for more if you find that special person who loves the look.
Thank you, yes it was a frame off and I have the photo album documenting all the work done to it. It is period correct but not numbers matching and unfortunately no build sheet. He rescued the car from Alabama and it was yellow originally, looking back he always talked about how he should have kept original color due to value but personally I love the GSX paint.
