Introduction: Hotter than a housewife watching Fifty Shades of
Grey! This is a genuine GS 455 that has the correct engine, factory
born red with white interior, and is documented with the original
order form. Everything functions as it should, I wouldn't be afraid
to drive this car anywhere. Highly detailed and dialed in. When I
say detailed I mean it, even the underside is exceptional. This is
luxury muscle at its finest!
EXTERIOR: Smoking hot! This exterior speaks for itself! The Fire
Red paint was applied with expert precision then polished to a
slick and reflective finish. All the GSX striping is painted on and
really makes the entire car pop. Looking down the side of the 100%
laser straight body you will see nothing but smooth contours and
sharp lines. The fit and finish are exceptional. All the panels
have been painstakingly aligned square and flush with consistent
gaps that are right on the money. The heavy doors do not sag when
opened and close easily with a solid thud that sounds like quality.
All the moldings fit properly and the remaining brightwork has a
magnificent shine. The white power vinyl top has been replaced. The
functioning Ram Air Hood with heads-up tachometer looks so tough
plus the front and rear spoilers really enhance the profile. The
front grille is spotless and the GSX emblem is a cool little touch.
The headlights were upgraded with much brighter halogen units. The
tail lights look to be original but in fantastic condition. It is
rolling on beautiful 15" chrome Buick wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich
Radial T/A tires that compliment the entire ensemble perfectly.
INTERIOR: White and done right! The factory correct Ivory interior
has been totally refurbished and looks tremendous. The front bench
seat with fold down armrest and adjustable headrests has been
nicely reupholstered. The rear seat has been recovered with
matching vinyl. Both front and rear are equipped with seatbelts.
The door panels have also been redone and are outfitted with power
window switches. There is a remote toggle for the driver side
mirror. The dash pad was replaced and has no cracks. The gauges
look great and the clock is functioning. The power convertible top
switch is conveniently located near the shifter. It has a tilt
column and good looking steering wheel. The sun visors and
carpeting have both been replaced as well.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Pretty and proper! The correct Buick 455 V8 is
just glistening. It has a functioning Ram Air Hood and correct dual
snorkel air cleaner. Everything looks fresh with nice red paint,
new belts, hoses, alternator, power steering pump, brake master and
power booster too. The wiper motor was also replaced, squirters are
hooked up, horns are hooked up, and the battery is properly
secured. The radiator looks like it was replaced or rebuilt and
even has its correct overflow bottle. The fender wells and firewall
have been neatly painted satin black. The original cowl tag is in
place. The hinges were restored and the bottom of the steel hood is
complete with insulation.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Clean and complete! The underside of the trunk
lid and jamb are painted nice and glossy just like the body. The
weatherstrip was replaced, latch mechanism refurbished, and it also
has reproduction stickers. Inside is all solid and rust-free metal
with a neatly applied spatter finish paint. It is also equipped
with a full size spare tire, hold down, jack assembly, and vinyl
trunk mat.
UNDERSIDE: Dazzling and detailed! All the steering components look
new and have been replaced including the steering gearbox by
Steeda. The front suspension looks fresh with replaced shocks and
springs, it also has a sway bar. The rear suspension was also
redone with new springs and shocks and a sway bar too. It is
equipped with front power disc brakes plus the master cylinder,
brake booster and all the lines were replaced as well. The
emergency brake is even hooked up. The entire dual exhaust system
was redone and purrs like a lion. The gas tank was replaced and has
new lines too. Looking up at the engine is satisfying with all the
fresh red paint and lots of new components. The numbers matching
Turbo 400 automatic transmission was gone through, it has a new
pan, linkage, and trans mount. The rebuilt drive shaft leads back
to a fresh looking 10 bolt posi rear end. The floors are nice and
smooth, rust-free metal that have a neatly applied coat of
semi-gloss black paint.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square foot service center, and
hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: Even in our showroom full of breathing classic cars,
this one stands out! A documented GS convertible with a 455 and
lots of luxuries plus the desirable colors, outstanding fit, and
all the fine details attended to, this car is an absolute winner!

For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights.
Our cars are displayed within a museum setting. If you are
interested in a specific vehicle, please schedule an appointment
with a salesperson to view it. Without an appointment, there is an
admission fee to enter the showroom. If you decide to purchase a
car, your admission will be refunded, and you'll receive a one-year
museum membership.
