I live in Finland ,northern europe and own a Buick GS 400 -69 car which is made in Canada.I think that that`s the only one GS 400 import this country in 1969.The car is now paint original color (trumpet Gold).The car has now 462 cid engine,manual th-400 transmission with trans brake and original 12-bolt rear axle 3,5 gear.Best quater mile pass is 11,85.The vinyl top lists are missing,if somebody has them Im interested.

Wow, the Canadiens must have liked Trumpet Gold in 1969. My brothers Canadien 69 GS350 was Trumpet Gold as well. eh p
How many convertibles were built in the U.S. and shipped to Canada?My '69 Skylark convertible was built in Flint and shipped to and sold in Canada,as i said earlier i bought my '69 GS convertible from the U.S.Just wondering?
Hi jt , if it was sold new in Canada you can have it documented by GM Canada for 45can$ http://www.gmcanada.com/english/maintenance/parts/parts_vint.html
If I am reading the numbers correctly I show 132 '69 GS400 Convertibles went to Canada (From the Flint plant). It also looks like 25 cars were "exported".
Trumpet Gold Canadian built GS's: GS400 Coupe =83 GS350 Coupe = 91 Antique Gold was the most popular Canadian built GS color; GS400 Coupe = 205 GS350 Coupe = 191 Looks like you Canadian's loved your "Gold" colored cars back then.. :grin: :beer
