Following.
Curious to see what details pop out to
The trained experts eyes!

 

There's too many to list....And it only took 10 years and a frame off resto to achieve this "one of one" gem.

 

Emblem placment on quarters and door panels are both odd. Almost wonder if its a clone or had new quarters installed

 

What pops out to my eye is no wheel well moldings!

 

Thats 1000 bucks reduction of the price!

 

I'll be there Saturday

 

Hey! I know that car!!!!!!!!!

He had the GS on his site for $47,995. Looks like he's also got a '66 Malibu that'll be at the auction.

McCormicks also has a classic car dealership in Palm Springs , From what I looked at his own cars last weekend most but not all are driver quality and 40 % overpriced.

First time poster, but long time lurker. First, the knowledge on this site is awesome. I'm down in PS this weekend and considering going and watching the GS400 go across the block later today. The back story on this one is pretty fascinating. McCormicks seems to be lower end quality wise and relatively affordable cars. Not sure what would possess the dealer to choose this auction. You can watch it live on the auction site btw:

Didn't know it would embed the live stream
The buick is lot 260ish. I think we're approaching 200 right now.

PS, I have yet to pull the trigger on anything, but owned a few buicks back in the 80s and 90s (65 Special-> 65 GS -> 67 GS400 and 67 Riv). Would like to get back in a 65 ideally.

 

A lot of garbage at this auction but the 67gs400 looks quite nice. As the other thread says there is some questionable emblem placement and some missing and misaligned trim. and, the interior is pretty worn but appears complete. But, bodywork looks to be high quality which is rare at this auction.

 

just sold at $36500 nice, love the color comb

Didn’t look like a sale to me. Did it sell off the podium? That is what it bid to.

Isn’t that fender badge backwards? And didn’t they come with wheel well trim?

Oh and the owner was fiddling with the brake light as it was queuing and couldn’t get it fixed. And for some reason they didn’t want to leave it running long. Sounded great though.

 

I wondered if it wasn't that one

The bid goes on @ 20K.

 

Some strange things going on with car but with that said I wouldn't sell it that cheap either. $20k would be a steal

 

the redhead is being passed around. Poor girl
