This Auction for a 1970 Buick GS 350 Convertible, It Currently Does not Run, It would need Spark Plug Wires, Probably the Carb. Rebuilt And Old Fuel removed from Tank. It Drove into My Shop 4 yr's ago under its own power and sounded Fine. It did have a rotten exhaust system under it that was taken off.
This Going to be a project. It had just been painted when I got it, However the paint has some chips here and there. Its Air Conditioned car, however the compressor is not on it or here.It does have the mounting bracket in the trunk.
It will come with a new GS Grill in box($500) New Side Markers and various GS Emblems that are new. I think some 455 emblems as well, I'm going to forward what I have.
It was my intent to clone it into a GS 455 Car or Get some white GSX Stripes and install on this Black paint, The paint job isn't Bad, and it Great. It Looks Good. I have not done anything to the car since owning it other than cut the exhaust off and Borrow the Spark plug wires off of it.
It needs a New Top it is ripped ,It does have a power top that worked fine ,upholstery is probably original, no major tears, just well worn. Plan on replacing to suit yourself
I believe the engine had recently been rebuilt, it didn't smoke, knock or miss. But as Stated its been sitting for 4 yrs, The body is straight. The doors close good its got some surface rust in dash corners near A pillars, none that goes all the way thru. Its a good restorable car.
The trunk Pan has either been previously replaced or really in good shape, I'd lean to has been replaced. But can't say for sure.
As mentioned I was going to clone it into a 455 car, So I wasn't real concerned about its current Drive train. The Bumpers are straight and will need a re-chrome. What you see in pictures is what you will get. the pictures were taken 2 days ago.
If you are looking for a GS 455 Convertible see my other auction.
I will help get it on a transport, I'm not going to get it running ,So when arranging pick up keep that in mind. Think -Winch. I do have a tractor that could push it onto a car trailer. but a winch is going to be best plan, and most transporters are geared up for this, you just need to tell them in advance.
Its a Neat car that would be great for someone to get running and cruise around or restore. Your Choice, my intent was frame off restoration. To many Projects and not enough time.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
