Rare Buicks in Sweden calling..........

Hello, this is the first time I write something on this site, but I have decide to give it a shot, because I am a Buicklover and I have had those beautiful machines for about 25 years now. Believe it or not, but the cars are all matching# documented cars. Hope for some good reading and writing on this site. Kjell from Sweden

 

What color is the GSX and the stage 1 convert?

 

Tjena Kjell

We have spoken on the phone a couple of times.

I have the metallic green 1971 GS 455 (HAX598) originally from Sigtuna in my garage

Welcome to this awesome group (Vlkommen)

Hej Kjell from another Swede. :TU:

I only have one Buick so far but I'm planning on getting many more.

Welcome to a great site.

 

The GSX is lime mist and it was specialordered by the chiefmanager at the swedish Buickdealer as a demonstration car, at that time. All swedish Buicks in 1971 had vinylroof, and so is this one too, dark green.
The Stage1 convertible arrived to Sweden 1976 in mint condition. Today it is red metallic, but original color is sheerwood green with burnished saddle interior. I`m gonna paint it in right color this spring, I hope.

 

Thanks, you can never have to many Buicks........

 

Welcome aboard! I see with all your '66 Buicks you collect in sets-so do I! Any pictures you can post of your cars?:kodak: :3gears: :TU:

 

Thanks,
Yes, beside those GS and GSX cars, I have always had Electra 1966 as my favorite model. I try to post some picts.....

There are one or two Limemist X cars on this Board. One local has a 4 speed.

The GSX Registry has only a few total listed.

You have some great Buicks.

 

Thanks, for all kind coments about my cars, and for the welcoms.
I post a few picts of the GScars also.
The GSX I think is a "one of a kind" with its dark green roof, and almost every option that was available. I tried to post a pict of the Stage1 conv. but the pict was to big I think??? Will try again.

 

Another member here, Ken Lisk, has a 4 speed limemist 71 X he is restoring. His also has a vinyl top. Look at pic #14 here:

Now that's funny:laugh:

PS;
nice collection of cars!!

 

Welcome aboard!

I also own a Sherwood Green '70 stage1 convertible 4-speed. Here are some pictures. So far, I've discovered about 8 of the 67 were Sherwood Green (although I can't get everyone to register their cars)

I also run a factory stage 1 registry. Please consider registering your car(s).

Additional information about the registry can be found HERE

Thanks!

 

Hi there, well I am going to register my car, I just havent taking the time yet. How many 4speed conv are left, as you know of? //Kjell

 

Currently, 46 of the 232 '70 stage1 convertibles are registered.

I know of about 10 - 15 which are not registered yet (including yours).

Of the 46 cars, 10 are 4-speeds (and 4 cars I have no additional transmission option information). Of the 10-15 unregistered cars above, about half are 4-speeds.

:3gears:

PS - Is your '71 GSX also a stage1? If so, also please consider registering it.

Also, are you aware there is a GSX registry? www.buickgsx.net :beer
