NOT MINE: GS 455 Conv for sale. Hill AFB Lemon Lot.
I don’t believe that the price is out of line if the car is correct and most of the number accessories are there and hasn’t been butchered. It is a peak hp year, drop top GS. Buick was always the masters of understatement with mundane color combinations, column shifting bench seated gramma mobiles, but make no mistake that they’re easily equal to any other badged “muscle car” with flashy colors at the show. Thanks for sharing!! I’d love to have it!😊
It has some rust in the quarters/rear wheel wells. Probably the trunk too. Did not check the engine numbers but it looks like it has not been out. Somebody put a flex fan on it backwards so I suspect the motor is tired. Is a bench seat auto on the column. Interior is decent. Somebody needs to call him and see what is up. I think the price is high too but I believe it is a real GS 455 conv.
From the picture you can see that the 70 radiator is also missing. 70 GS quarter panels for a convertible do not exist. Hopefully the rust is confined to an area where a hardtop quarter patch will work.

No doubt it needs some love. Both quarters are rusted about the same behind the wheels and toward the rear of the opening. The upper portion looked ok from what I could see. I am an Olds guy so I found it strange it did not have a rear sway bar and box control arms. Was this an option on a GS?.. It looked like the original 8.2 rear was still there. I just think such a rare car needs saved...
If original it has a 68–70 Buick only 8.2. No reproduction gear sets are currently made. Fabcraft intends to reproduce some 3.64 and 3.42 sets machined in Italy.
My memory is the sway bar, F41 package, was optional except for the 70 GSX cars which starting arriving late Feb-March, 1970.
