INCLUDED Epitomizing class and quality with massive muscle car
performance, Buicks mid-size Skylark GS (Gran Sport) featured
handsomely chiseled bodywork and an all-new 400 CI V-8 engine
design for 1967. Factory-advertised at 340 horsepower, the new
engine featured a strong engine block with 5 main bearings,
4-barrel carburetion, and an unusual twin-inlet air cleaner with
internal passages that actually functioned to direct and straighten
intake airflow before entering the carburetor inlets. New F70
tires, handling suspension, optional front disc brakes, and the new
Super Turbine (GM Turbo-Hydramatic) 3-speed automatic transmission
rounded out these well-balanced and sophisticated performers.
Speaking of performance, the 0-60 sprint was covered in just 6.9
seconds for automatic cars and top speeds nudged 125 mph. Press
coverage of the GS 400 was positive; however, relatively few were
produced including just 2,140 GS 400 convertibles.A truly
outstanding example, this 1967 Buick GS 400 convertible is finished
in striking Platinum Mist with a power-operated Black convertible
top over Red vinyl upholstery. Other highlights include a Super
Turbine 3-speed automatic transmission, bucket seats with center
console and console-mounted tachometer, plus a beautifully styled
and modernistic Buick factory sport steering wheel with tilt. Power
brakes, power steering, and air conditioning ensure comfortable
cruising. The hot 400 CI V-8 engine features the very valuable,
1967-only twin-inlet Star Wars air cleaner for a great look and
actual performance benefits. Performance is further enhanced with
limited bolt-on upgrades including an Edelbrock intake manifold and
a set of tubular headers, with the original intake and exhaust
manifolds included with the sale of the car to return it to factory
tune as desired. Otherwise, this GS 400 remains incredibly original
and simply gorgeous throughout, riding on a set of very attractive
Buick road wheels mounting period appearing Red stripe tires. A
recent review by The Last Detail confirms this very attractive 1967
Buick GS 400 convertible drives great and as it should. Contact us

Buick Skylark GS 400 convertible while the weather remains nice!
