Rare 1969 Buick GS350 2-door Hardtop Coupe powered by a 350cui small block GM 5.7L V8 producing 280hp and matched to a ‘Turbo 350’ 3-speed column automatic transmission.

The Buick Gran Sport was launched in 1964 as Buick’s answer to the Pontiac GTO. By 1968 it was on its second-generation body that would carry it through to 1972, and the end of mainstream muscle. From 1968 the Buick GS was based on a Skylark Custom and available with a 350-cid V-8 with 4-barrel carby and boasted 280 horsepower.

This stock 1969 GS350 2-door Hardtop Coupe is a true GS and is a Californian car. The engine has just been completely rebuilt approx 2000 kms ago by Pearl Performance in the USA, and a mild cam was installed at the time. The frame is straight and rust free, and the car has now been repainted to its original colour of ‘Burgundy Mist’. It is a beautiful example of Buick muscle for its era, and with only 4900 built, it is a rare vehicle.

Features include power assisted brakes, mild cam, power steering, edelbrock 4bbl carby, Flowmaster exhaust, dual 2 1/2″ exhaust system, MSD ignition, posi-traction limited slip diff, rear air shocks, 14″ Rally wheels w/ new Cooper Cobra Radial GT tyres, Pioneer stereo w/ MP3, Polk Audio speakers (4) & amplifier.

This car was for sale at the start of February 2017 for $26,000 AUD
