Vehicle Description
The Buick has a long-standing reputation as "an old man's car."
However, in 1970 if my "old man" had a Buick GS 455 Stage 1, I'd be
mighty impressed! It's got a 455 cid motor, 360 horses, and 510 lbs
of torque. It can do 0-60 in about 6.5 seconds and the � mile in
13.38, according to MOTOR TREND in the January 1970 issue, or about
105.5 mph with an automatic. There are some faster but none with
the same style and grace.
We are offering an extraordinary example of this all factory
original "gentlemen's" muscle car. It had only one owner and has
been off the road since 1980 with 26,138 miles on the odometer. The
exterior was painted Buick Silver Mist Irid (#14) in May 2017 with
the stripe done in Buick Black (A-946). The vinyl roof is also
black (code 12B Formula No. 169C42). The black interior features
reupholstered front buckets. This vehicle also has a new set of
white walls. The drive train is completely original with a 4 speed.
Of the 2,465 Stage 1's made in 1970 only 664 had a 4 speed. This is
a very rare and extraordinary automobile.
