Route 61 Classics in Pennsylvania is proud to offer this 1968 Buick
GS400 Convertible for sale, a striking muscle-era convertible that
combines timeless styling with professionally built Buick big-block
performance. Finished in Scarlet Red with a black power convertible
top and black interior, this GS400 presents beautifully and
commands attention wherever it goes.
Under the hood is a 455ci Buick V8, using a correctly disclosed
1970-71 Buick block (casting 1238861). The engine was
professionally built with performance and reliability in mind,
featuring TA Performance Stage 1 Street Eliminator aluminum heads,
Wiseco .040-over forged pistons, ARP fasteners, MLS head gaskets,
upgraded valvetrain components, and a performance camshaft.
Induction is handled by an aluminum intake manifold topped with a
Holley 750 CFM vacuum-secondary carburetor (LIST-3310-3), while
ignition duties are managed by an MSD distributor.
This combination produces a dyno-verified 428 horsepower and 468
lb-ft of torque, with documentation included - delivering strong
street manners, massive torque, and the unmistakable sound Buick
big-blocks are known for. Cooling is handled by an aluminum
radiator with dual electric fans, and exhaust exits through TA
Performance headers feeding a deep-sounding dual exhaust
system.
Power is sent through a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission to a
Buick-specific 8.2" BOP 10-bolt rear axle, preserving the authentic
muscle-era driving experience. The suspension remains true to its
GM A-body roots, complemented by factory power front disc brakes
for confident stopping.
This GS400 comes with a binder of receipts and documentation, along
with an extensive trophy history from shows and events - a clear
reflection of the quality of the build and the pride of ownership.
The undercarriage is clean and solid, and the car runs strong,
drives well, and presents as a true enthusiast-owned example.

V8, 4-speed manual, documented performance, and show-quality
