    1971 GS 350 Conv

    Mostly complete car, motor and trans have been overhauled, PS, PB, non AC, auto, bench seat, cruse, rear defrost, rally wheels, posi rear end, rally steering wheel.

    Car has been in inside storage for 10 years, has current Neb title. It starts, moves, and stops. Needs complete restoration. I do not want to sell parts.

    Extra complete frame from 71 Skylark HT, with front disk brakes and 8.5 rear end. Not sure if conv need frame repair. From what I have seen it looks good.

    Two extra conv top frames.

    I have most parts for car, good deck lid, rest of interior, GS grill and air cleaner, GS hood inserts, good headlight bezels, AM/FM radio.

    $3,250, (new price) or offer. Please respond here and then send PM, Thanks Bill


    I have more pictures and pictures of the parts that are not on the car. Can post some later, thanks Bill.

    I like the fact that the car is all there... the bad; it needs a frame or frame repair.. ..and rust issue can raise the rebuild costs significantly. ..either way a frame off is in order.. I think I saw this car on eBay. ...wish I owned a body shop.. Nice car - good luck!

    I do not think you seen it on ebay, it has been in my barn for 12 years. Kinda of a barn find. Frome what I can see of the fram it looks OK. I need to get it up and look under it. It is difficult for an old guy when it is on the trailer, and in the winter. As I said I have some more pictures. Yes you are correct it need complete floors and a trunk. As I said the motor and trans was rebuilt before I got the car. 12 years ago I cut the gas line and put a 1/2 gal milk jug for a gas tank, cleaned the points and fired the car up. Added some trans fluid to get it to move and some brake fluid. 12 years later I put gas in the jug, cranked over until the oil light went out and primed the carb with a little gas and started it up. Put it in gear and moved it out of the barn, and stabbed the brakes and it stopped. Both front and rear master still had fluid after 12 years setting. No trans leak under the car. Thanks Bill.

    If you were in Florida it would be at my house and I'd be living in it but its easier to beg forgiveness than to ask permission

    Had some time over the weekend to look the car over some more and clean the floors and take more pictures. The only area on the frame that I can see that is real bad is the pass side rear from the wheel house to the bumper area, but is real hard to see even if you jack it up. Looks like someone put new barke line on. The wheel well chrome X4 are good not dents, the lower chrome is good, nof the 5 wheels are curbed. The hood does have a rust spot in the nose. I need to check the posi ratio and see if the top works. If anyone would like more pictures I have them I can emil, just PM me you address, thanks Bill.

    Looks like Burnished Cinnamon if I have my color name right. Black interior / black top. With a rebuilt motor/trans this is a good price.

    Bittersweet Mist. Great color. If someone buys my Wildcat or Centurion I would buy the convertible, but I am 100% out of room.

    Time to bring this one back to the top.

    Had two offers, excepted one, but did not pan out, I can understand time of year, shipping and all the parts it is difficult. That been said this car should be restored. It is a low numbers, numbers matching, well option car. The motor and trans have been gone through. It will start run, lot drive and stop. All the hard to find parts are there.

    If interested please post here and then send a PM, thanks Bill.
