    This is my latest Buick, ITs a 72 GS455, with ALL NUMBERS MATCHING, It has 69k miles and is original except for one not so good repaint sometime in the the 90s, It still has the functioning smog equipment on the motor and the original exhaust on it. It is very loaded too it has AC (works), tilt, sport wheel, rallye wheels, sport mirrors, am/fm radio w rear speaker, 3.42 posi, F41 suspension, deluxe mats, Rallye clock (never heard of it ) but it has military time on it, upper body trim and body side trim. I even have the window sticker. I got an amazing deal from a great Buick guy who lives local but until this car I had never met. Thanks again Rich, I love this car. Future plans call for a repaint someday, and maybe a few performance mods so as not to get beat AGAIN by my wifes 02 mustang gt convertable auto, :mad:

    The rears tires are 255/60 and the fronts are 225/70 im pretty sure. I would go with 275/60s on the rear if you like the fat tires look.

    Yes please double check on your tire sizes, I believe your front looks like 215 70 15 and rear 255 60 15.

    I really dont want to go to a 275 60 15 in the rear since my GS only has stock 3:08.
