Well guys here is my 67 GS 400. She is a work in progress but is coming along nicely. The pictures are shot on the day I brought her home.
Nice! Looks pretty stock, 'til you open that hood. Great sleeper! And I must add that i've never seen KB valve covers done quite like yours. Pretty cool lookin', mostly red like that.
I know Archie's (go kitty) has the reclining pass. seat. Don't think his has the power driver side though.
Nope on the power driver's seat on Birdie,guys.This thread has really opened up the 67 stable! Nice. Archie
thats what mine had pius some other power stuff,kinda wundering where it endd up,fred inglehart had it last i heard,reclining pass seat is pretty rare
Both my convertibles came with power windows and power bucket seats. I have seen a number of convertibles with the power windows and power bucket seat. I wonder if it was an option package if factory installed the power windows they installed the power bucket seat? You can buy the power bucket seat apparatus restored on Ebay from $850 to $1500. Ouch!
Has anyone ever seen a factory power window convertible car with ac? Seems like its always one or the other on 67s
My recent GS400 Convertible purchase has factory air, factory power windows and factory power bucket seat
Hi Nick, plans for the car? Hmmm, let me see. Seriously there were some issues that needed repair that were hard to see until you really began looking for them. The GS has the original matching engine and transmission but had not run in about 30 years. Last NC registration was 1977. Lot's of work to bring her back and she is just about ready for paint. Here is a shot of her going back together.
Hello Guys, For years I've slowly been gathering information to document how many '67 GS car still survive today, a registry of sorts, just to satisfy my own curiousity. I originally started with just the GS400 convertibles but I want to expand it to include any '67 GS, GS400 (HT, conv, sedan), GS340, California GS, Special GS, & Riviera GS. Please consider contributing information about your car. I will never publish publicly or share privately your last name or the city where your car is located. I currently have about 50 GS400 convertibles, 49 GS400 hardtops, less than 10 GS400 sedans, and another handful of small block block cars. I suspect there are a lot of these cars that have survived and I find it interesting to learn what's out there. This initial site is very basic but I'm not a web designer and I had to start with something so this is just the beginning. My wife is going to begin work toward a nicer site that will include the registry information and tons of good '67 information that I've gathered over the last 30 years. I think there will eventually be something on the site that all '67 GS lovers will find interesting. I'll soon also include a nice scan of the entire '67 assembly manual which is something that is hard to find and not available on any other website. www.1967GS.com Thanks,
That's great news Gary! I hope the word spreads and there's good response. Looking forward to seeing the site develop. Thanks for doing this for us '67 owners, much appreciated.........Nick
I echo Nick's remarks! When I initially began my search for a '67 (over 20 years ago),I was put in touch with Jerry and Karen Miller in Statesville,NC. They were devoted to our '67s. Visited them and got to see their cars. Best description ? Auto jewelry. When they needed fresh hood scoop inserts and none were available,they produced them at their machine shop and made them available to fellow '67 enthusiasts. Sadly,Jerry passed away a few years ago. I sourced my '67 scoop inserts from Karen. To the best of my knowledge,Karen still has their '67s. I share this information because the Miller family was (and,I suspect,Karen still is) among the first to be dyed in the wool,flag waving,'67 GS400 restoration devotees. and should be remembered as Gary's '67 site develops......Archie
Wow Gary great stuff! I will gladly contribute all the information that I can. Thanks for your efforts. I am going to look at your site now. P. S. I am keen to have a look at the assembly manual. I have never seen one.
