Sorry... got a little defensive there.

I would LOVE to see the GSX stay strong up top and pull of a 10-second timeslip.

 

if you go to mobile alabama i can show you: but i dont have a scaner but tony from postons enterprise can back that up and on my 350 buick i have gone 11.92 i have 410 gears me and my dad are getting ready to restore it again i had the car since 93 when i got out of school yes i bought myself

 

A friend of mine has a GSX convertible, all original, he claims that its one of six, I don't know, I've seen probly ten GSX's ever and this is the only convert so I guess its possisble. I ran him once and he spanked me off the line but I reeled him back in by 75-80, but it is the factory build, not to bad for its age, the car has never seen rain and is very well taken care of, one of my favorites out of his collection.

 

Buick never sold a GSX convertible. There were GS convertibles with the same Stage 1 455, but not GSX's.

You could claim that they're so rare that I just haven't heard of it, but then I'd call the guy that designed the car (he's a friend of my father-in-law's), and have him refute you himself.

I've seen some GS convertibles with GSX paint jobs, badges, etc. They're awesome, but they're not real.

 

do you go to the v8buick web site?

 

As the car belongs to my father in law, and not me, no, I generally do not.

I think he's a member, though. Not sure how often he posts.

 

Nice GSX. A buddy of mine from MAGNA has a yellow one (the more popular color). Its currently getting rebuilt after spinning #8 rod bearing. It has gone 12.5s with the old motor. The club founders father also has a W-30 442 (pretty much the Olds equivalent) and its got a 496cid bullet. Gone 10.07 on pump gas.


Love the old big block cars. Nice kill in the GSX!!!

 

mine is black
