In the hierarchy of General Motors brands, Buick was beaten in
terms of luxury and comfort only by Cadillac, which didn't make
performance models. As a result, Buick's "Gran Sport" line were the
best-equipped sport models that GM had to offer. Taking a single
glance at this 1972 Buick GS makes it pretty easy to see why!
Equipped from the factory with tons of options, this '72 GS is
truly fully-loaded. Powered by a numbers-matching 350 C.I. V8
breathing through a 4-barrel carburetor with functional ram-air
induction, this '72 GS means business. Torque is put to the
pavement through a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission,
allowing for plenty of smiles behind the wheel as it cruises down
the highway with ease. The stunning "coke-bottle" styling on this
'72 GS is unmistakable, and the exterior "Sandalwood Beige" paint
looks gorgeous laid out over this Buick's laser-straight bodylines.
It matches well to the chrome trim with contrasting red accents,
and the black vinyl top adds a sophisticated edge to this car's
muscular style! In addition, the floors, frame, trunk, and jambs on
this Buick are rock-solid and all present well! Opening the twin
doors to this Buick reveals a highly-original, well-appointed,
two-tone green & beige vinyl interior complete with comfy
split-bench seats that are perfect for cruising. The original,
functional AM/FM radio still sits in the dash, and the woodgrain
trim adorning the door panels and other aspects of the interior add
a little bit of luxury flair! As previously stated, this '72 Buick
left the factory loaded with options. These include power steering,
power brakes, front disc brakes, a functional ram-air hood, factory
A/C, the original gauges & tachometer, an original working AM/FM
pushbutton radio, "dual-sport" mirrors, a remote driver's mirror, a
heater + defroster, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system.
Looking like it drove straight out of 1972, this GS rides on a
correct set of 14" Buick wheels over some slick Hankook blackwall
tires. With the way this '72 Buick runs and drives, you're always
in for a good time behind the wheel. If you're in the market for a
highly-original, well-equipped, uncommon, and powerful cruiser,
then look no further! This '72 Buick GS is just what you're looking
for.
