Today I went to the Chicagoland Buick GSCA car show in Naperville, IL. I had the pleasure of meeting fellow member Bill Sales (#7) and his stunning survivor 1970 GSX. Most of you will get to see the GSX at this years GSX Gathering. Trust me....you will all be as speachless as I was to see this car is person. Bill is also a very nice GSX owner, since 1975.....very cool! Enjoy these pics.
He had this car at last years Nats too, but I didn't get the chance to speak with him at that time. I do have a few photos to share. It was great to see it then.
:gp: Beautiful Car i seen it last year at the GS nats ,got some pics of his car with mark's all orginal 72 stage 1 conv,Nice all orginal cars Laters Tim:3gears:
dan, thanks for the pics. boy, does that X bring back memories. bill stole that X from me in 1975. i won't tell you what i sold it for.:ball: up until a couple years ago i didn't know he still owned it. bill is a great guy, we might caravan together to the GSX reunion next month.:beers2:
I can look at unrestored cars all day. That's sweet! I would have left mine original if it was anything close to this nice,BUT..... being that it was the wrong color, with the wrong top half, non-working ragtop, cracked windshield,caved-in rusted out fender, and trashed seat , why not restore it? It was fun when it was running, driving it and not worrying about things like washing it, or polishing the non-existant chrome.
Dan, Thanks for the slide show! It was great meeting you and seeing a lot of really nice cars that day. Bill.
DL, after i sold bill the X, i did the family thing, got married, bought a house and raised 3 kids. the whole time i squirreld my pennies away until i could find another GSX. I FOUND IT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO IN SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. i've been lucky enough to own gsx#7 and now gsx#2.:beers2:
WOW, Dan! That car is truly amazing! I hope it is coming to the reunion. Thanks so much for sharing! (Didn't realize you had a Buick interest too! ) (EDIT: Guess if I had read Marco's post I would have known it IS coming to the reunion!! :TU: )
