    Bruce,

    I had a long talk with the owner of the car, it is a real low milage vehicle. The unfortunate part is the dealer got his hands on it and thought a cheap undercoating would help the car out. The underside looks like a kindergarter class painted it. They took a wonderful car and trashed it. No longer is this car capable of winning pionts at a BCA meet, it's now just an overpriced old Buick GS. :rant:

    Very sad, because it was a very nice car

    That car was on ebay about 3 months ago, it was close by me and I was going to look at it until I saw shots of the bottom of the car :ball: They ruined it with the undercoating. The headliner also had a hole from a mouse?

    I think you could have picked up for 1/2 or less of the current asking price when it was on ebay. Some one is trying to flip it and make big $

    They told me they paid 19K for it. Looks like some one is looking to make a killing.
    Hope they like it, since they will probably have it a long long time.

    69GS400s ...my own amusement ride!

    ....cant the undercoating be removed ??

    Also - are the fender "vents" correct for the Cali GS in '68 ??

    no fake brake vent on the bottom of the fender ??

    doesn't look quite right to me .... :puzzled:

    Alan, do your research! :moonu: :moonu:
    There were a few threads on the 68-69 Cali's. 69 has no vents, no trim. 68 has those 3 'slats' up high on the fender- no 'faux vents' due to the California being an 'option' on the Special Deluxe. Has GS grille, hood, emblems, motor, trans but that was about it. Standby for links.....
