Now for the reasoning...


Here are a few examples of what Im looking for. Its a 1970 GS 455



I've always wanted a 1970 GS 455. I like the grill / headlights / bumper a little better. Plus I just want a 455. The only way I was going ever have one, was to sell my car, and start shopping. There were 5,589 of these cars made in the Hardtop version. Not as rare as my 72 (1 of 601) but still rare.








A few cars have surfaced.. most more of a project than I want at this time. Others, just a little out of budget, but patients will prevail. After all the car has only been gone 10 days. I'll keep you all posted... the blog will take a different direction at that time for sure.







The hunt will continue! After all, shopping is half the fun right? Look forward to the news and new pictures when I find the right one. Im a firm believer that the best things come to those who wait.



















72 Buick GS 350 Convertible 2005-2011

Its taken me until now to post this... The opportunity came to sell the Buick. I know most of you are shocked at the moment. I'm still a little shocked too. I had been thinking about selling, and an offer was made and the deal was done.


The new owner is a great guy from VA. Meet Mike.















And I know he'll love and take care of the car as will his whole family.















It was sad to see it drive away from the house on a trailer. I didn't cry, but I didn't blink either.
