1970 Buick GSX Stage 1
The Icon of Buick Performance

At the height of the muscle car wars, Buick decided to step into the ring with both feet, what showed up would become known as one of the most powerful muscle cars produced that year. The introduction of the GSX model brought along a very distinctive striping, front and rear spoiler package that also included a special hood, performance suspension, instrument panels and even a hood mounted tach. Add to that the optional, new for 1970 455 Stage 1 motor, you got a very striking muscle car with 510 lb/ft of torque right off the dealers lot.

This Saturn Yellow example has been meticulously restored from the ground up. When the order was placed for this restoration, it was agreed upon that it had to be a Gold Certified car upon completion, after being judged at the Buick Nationals, that part of the agreement was easily fulfilled. Documented with paperwork from Wayne Roberts as a point of reference, this factory Stage 1, 4-speed car is one of only 118 so equipped; all the proper GSX accoutrements are also present and accounted for, from the hood tach to the special striping, this is a striking Buick. Being among the rarest of the Stage 1 Buicks, the excellent documentation including the previously mentioned documentation and Nationals judging sheets combined with a very well detailed frame off restoration really sets this apart as a very special Buick GSX Stage 1 .
