In 1965 ordering the Gran Sport option means you got a boxed
convertible frame, heavy duty suspension, bucket seats, larger
tires, Gran Sport emblems and the 401 motor. It was hoping to make
goat's head soup out of the 65 GTO! This is a clean 89,900 mile
unabused car.
EXTERIOR: It is a handsome looking body style. It happens to be
exceptionally clean and straight too. There's no rust or damage.
The paint has a smooth glossy finish. The chrome and trim is
original and I think it still looks great! Vinyl top is in very
good shape. The glass has been tinted. The Buick GS mags have a
brand new set of tires. They are reproduction Wide Oval redlines
that are radials. The red Gran Sport emblems match the tires.
Correct T-3 headlights.
INTERIOR: It is a very clean, unabused interior. You will be
looking at a clean dash area, it's not cut cracked or cut. It even
has its original working AM radio. The dash pad is mint. They did
upgrade the steering wheel with a leather cushion grip. The
upholstery is very good, it has deluxe seatbelts in front. The
center console is exceptionally nice, the chrome sparkles. Carpet
looks good and it has new Gran Sport floor mats.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is a very clean and proper engine
compartment. Correct Buick Nailhead 401 making 325 horsepower and a
whopping 445 lbs of torque. Features include power steering and
power brakes. The engine is painted nicely, air cleaner is
restored. The metal surfaces are painted neatly. It has hood
insulation, the squirters are hooked up, battery is properly
secured, horns work etc.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is clean and complete. Under the trunk lid
and jamb are painted nicely. Inside is rock solid with a gray
spatter finish. It has a two piece mat and matching tire cover.
Complete jack and spare assembly. The weather strip is like new and
the trunk light works.
UNDERSIDE: Underneath looks very solid and proper. The steering and
suspension components look good have been inspected by our
mechanics. You can tell various parts have been replaced more
recently, upgraded with air shocks. The drum brakes are working
properly, e-brake cable is hooked up. Dual exhaust system with
Super Turbo mufflers. Looking up at the motor it is exceptionally
clean, so is the Super Turbine 300 automatic transmission. The
floors appear to be rock solid original condition with a factory
undercoat.
SERVICE: This one passed our inspection with flying colors!
If you're looking for a real clean muscle car that you won't see at
every car show like a GTO or Chevelle then this is a good
choice!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
