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.
