Vehicle Description
Sunnyside Chevrolet of Elyria, Ohio in conjunction with Greg's
Sports, Classic, & Muscle is proud to offer for sale this beautiful
1967 Buick Gran Sport 400 4 SPEED CONVERTIBLE!!!!!
This one checks a lot of boxes folks. Let's start with RARE, RARE,
RARE. In 1967 there were 13,433 Buick Gran Sports built. Total. Now
let's get down to it- just over 2000 of those were 400
convertibles. 422 of those were 4-speeds. 422. 422. This car is one
of 422!!!!! Oh, did we mention it's also numbers matching? Did we
also mention this car NEVER has been rusty? Did we mention we know
the restorer and he is one demanding SOB? Did we mention its frame
off? Oh yea, and by the way, it's also a factory red car with
buckets. My oh my.
Quoting an ad from 67 "The heart of Buick's GS 400 is a 340
horsepower, 400 CID V8 engine. It's a tuned, ticking machine that's
ready to move you into city traffic or pull you through a turnpike
curve at the touch of your toe". Oh, those ad writers in 1967. This
GS is powered by its original, delivered with, built by GM engine.
It's been freshened and even has all its original components and
runs just as nicely as one would expect. The interior of this GS is
mostly original- dash- seats- door and more. We know the carpeting
is new of course and the interior certainly portrays itself just as
a 51K original mile car interior would look. Did we mention the car
has 51K original miles- YEP. A power top is also a very nice
compliment along with a console surrounding that rare 4-speed.
The body and paint are very, very straight on this old girl. When
our friend Kevin was restoring it in 2012 to 2013, he said that he
spent days on his back removing grease and grime from the
underside. One thing he did not do is metal patching. The photos of
the car stripped are a pure and accurate representation of what
Kevin started with. He had the frame powder coated. AMAZING. We'd
call the paint on the car extremely nice.
Is this GS perfect? No, but it's really nice. Perfect is a tough
word for us. So few cars qualify. Generally, you have to spend a
$100,000 or more and then keep it in a bubble to be perfect. Kevin
built this car to enjoy and he did get some smiles on it. Thanks
Kevin for saving this one.
We have a number of during restoration photos that go with the car
and we welcome inspection on this GS- we are proud to have it
Drive it, show it, keep it in a bubble and polish it as a prized
possession, the choice is yours once you make it yours.
We stand behind our thoughts on this car by offering our travel
expenses guarantee- come see the car and if we have materially
misrepresented its condition we will gladly pay half of your travel
expenses up to $500.00- this offer had been in place since we sold
our first classic and we haven't paid the money yet.... We pride
ourselves on having good cars and representing them properly.
