Vehicle Description
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, those in the know understand that
Buick's "Gran Sport" line contained some of the greatest and
best-equipped sleepers that the 1960s had to offer. That's because
sitting in the stunning engine bay of this beautiful 1967 Buick GS
is the largest engine available in a '67 Buick, a massive,
year-correct 400 C.I. "Wildcat" V8 breathing through a 4-barrel
carburetor and a striking twin-intake air cleaner, which is more
than enough to leave all opponents in the dust. Torque is stomped
into the pavement through a sturdy TH400 3-speed automatic
transmission, which shifts smoothly and seamlessly as this Buick
charges down the road. The exterior's classic '60s bodylines are
incredibly solid and they're laser straight, gifting this Buick a
body that's timeless and full of style. The exterior "Platinum
Mist" metallic paint looks absolutely gorgeous matched up to the
car's red pinstriping, gleaming beautifully in the sun after being
buffed to a brilliant shine. The chrome brightwork looks gorgeous
as well, and red-trimmed "GS 400" badges give a clue that there may
be more to this Buick than meets the eye. In addition, after
spending most of its life in the sunny state of California, the
floors, frame, trunk & jambs on this Buick are all rock-solid and
in great shape! Opening the heavy twin doors and stepping inside
reveals an inviting black vinyl interior, complete with
re-upholstered patterned bench seats that are very comfy and
perfect for cruising. Other options on this unassuming sleeper of a
Buick include power steering, power brakes, the original owner's
warranty booklet, factory gauges, an aftermarket Pioneer AM/FM/CD
stereo unit, aftermarket rear speakers, vent windows, and a
mean-sounding dual exhaust system. Ensuring that this car sticks
out from the crowd are its shiny set of correct 14" Buick chrome
rally wheels wrapped with redline radial tires, matching up to the
car's pinstriping and giving it an intimidating look that matches
the character of this car's powertrain! With only 66,759 believed
original miles on the odometer, this '67 GS starts right up and
drives down the highway like a dream. With the way this '67 Gran
Sport runs, drives, and sounds, you're in for a good time whenever
you're behind the wheel. You don't see real-deal Gran Sports very
often, much less ones that are of the quality that this example is,
so don't let it pass you by! We'd love to see it in your
driveway.
