Yeh I think my 71-455 convertible said GS "By Buick" under the GS emblem on the trunk lid if I remember right. That's a beautiful car
Jim I think this was Tommy Paige's old car. He sold it a few months ago for I believe 25k and this guy is just flipping it.
25k why did he sell it so cheap ? Talked to the guy three weeks ago wasn't familiar with the 71 GS numbers .
It looks like a 350 car to me. No chrome on trunk, no 455 emblems, it might be a Skylark, not a GS. The VIN is hinky, too.
The current owner/dealer is now local to Apex who moved here from L.I. He just opened a new building in Benson.
I'm not sure it was standard... http://www.v8buick.com/index.php?th...n-trim-standard-on-all-70-71-gs.313628/page-2
This is the guy that bought my 68 GS, represented himself as a private buyer, told a tale that loved old Buicks etc, etc, etc. Then it was on Ebay 2 weeks later for 15K more being flipped. I got the price I was asking so no hard feelings there, just thought that he could have been a bit more straight up.
Jim - I cannot recall his name, I remember that we made a tentative deal on a Thursday night and he was in Orlando the next day by noon with a trailer and cash, drove all night.
