1967 Buick GS 400


 


You are viewing a very nice unrestored original survivor GS with 72K original miles.  The car is dialed in and runs and drives excellent.  The car has been garaged all of its life and it shows.  Some work had been done to keep the car very presentable. 


 


Please read on for more particulars of the car:


 


Body/Paint:  The paint is mostly original with a few areas that have been spotted in.  You wouldn’t know by looking at it.  No dents with the body and paint in excellent condition.  Very nice red pin striping.  The vinyl top is original to the car and in excellent condition for its age.  Shows very well.   


 


Interior:  The interior shows very well with the carpet, seat covers replaced.  The dash, door panels and head liner are original to the car and in very good condition.  The console is original along with other bright work in very good condition.  Aftermarket tach in place of the original tach in the console.  After market gauges, Temp, oil pressure and amps. 


 


Running Gear:  400-4 original to the car, rebuilt with a street cam.  Edelbrock replacement carb for the original quadrojet.  Ceramic coated headers.  Air cleaner is not original to the car.  Lots of torque.  The trans is original to the car, 3 speed and rebuilt with shift kit in excellent working order.  Rear end is original to the car, 10 bolt posi and good working order.  Pusher fan for hot days.  The car runs cool.        


 


Suspension:  The suspension is tight and rides nice.  Frame is solid and presentable.  Newer shocks and rides very nice and solid. 


 


Brakes:  Power drum brakes in good working order.


 


Exhaust:  3 inch exhaust with turbo style muffler.  With the cam the exhaust system is the best thing about the car.  Sound awesome.

Wheels/Tires:  Wheels are Buick after market in excellent condition.  Rears are 14x8 and 14x6 front.  Good radial tires with lots of rubber.  245/60 14  


Summary:  Buick GS of this era are pretty rare and hard to find in this good overall condition.  Many replacement parts are not available aftermarket so to have an excellent survivor is very desirable when wanting a presentable car that looks good.  This is a great car that runs and drives excellent.  Great value for the money.  If you are shopping for a quality 67 GS 400 this car is worthy of your consideration.  Don’t let this one pass you by.  I have over 100 pictures of the car so please contact me and provide your email address if you would like additional pictures.  Don’t miss out on this affordable ride.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?

Fri, May 27 2016

When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Junkyard Gem: 2004 Pontiac Vibe GT

Fri, Jun 26 2020

The New United Motor Manufacturing plant in Fremont, California, built Toyota-derived machinery — badged as Toyotas, Chevrolets, Geos, and Pontiacs— from 1984 through 2010, and some of the very last vehicles that left the assembly line were Pontiac Vibes. The Vibe, sibling to the Toyota Matrix, mostly served as a ho-hum transportation appliance and/or fleet car, but a factory-hot-rod GT version could be purchased. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those rare GTs, complete with the nearly unheard-of six-speed manual transmission, found in a self-service yard in northeastern Colorado. The regular Vibe had 123 or 130 horsepower, depending on the number of driven wheels, but the Vibe GT got the same 1.8-liter 2ZZ engine that went into the Celica GT-S. 180 horsepower, which was enough to make the 2,800-pound Vibe GT keep up with the 3,108-pound/215-horse Chrysler PT Cruiser Turbo that year. Sadly, no race series pitting Vibe GTs against PT Cruiser Turbos and Chevy HHR SSs on road courses ever materializedÂ… but it's not too late. The Vibe GT has something you couldn't get in a PT Cruiser or Chevy HHR, though: a six-speed manual transmission as standard equipment. In fact, the six-speed was the only transmission offered in the early Vibe GTs (an automatic became an option later on). You'll find plenty of three-pedal econoboxes from this era, because they were significantly cheaper than their slushbox-equipped counterparts, but the Vibe GT had plenty of competition from sportier-looking cars with manual transmissions in 2004. Not many were sold. This car is covered with nasty dents from golf-ball-sized hail (all too common in High Plains Colorado), so it may have been an insurance total that nobody wanted at auction. Sold in Wyoming, will be crushed in an adjacent state. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Fuel for the soul.

Toyota had right-hand-drive Matrixes brought over to Japan from Canada, but a NUMMI-built version of the Vibe could be purchased there for a few years as well. This was the Voltz, and its advertising seems notably frantic even by the standards of Japanese car commercials.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
