Mike, I'm sorry to see you selling all these beautiful cars. If i can be of any help on the 71 GSX Clone let me know. If anybody is serious about the car feel free to contact me if you need more information as i was the previous owner. This car has undergone extensive work inside and out and is well worth the price Mike is asking for it. If i wasn't finishing up a resto on a 69 Baldwin Motion Camaro this car would be back in my garage:ball:. Good Luck with the sale on your car's Mike.
Thanks Randy. You're right, that's a tough one to let go it's so nice. Here's status as of today: 70GSX - last prospect went silent on me without a decision. Available. 70GS Stage1 - after going through prospective buyers questions and taking pictures, and giving the first half dozen people a shot at it, I've decided it's too good to sell at least at that price. I had forgotten that the whole underside is freshly detailed too in addition to new paint, vinyl top, etc. I decided if I could only keep one of the cars that should be the one. 71GS455 Convert auto bittersweet - still going down the list on this one. 71GS455 Convert 4spd blue - Available. I think I misstated the appraised value on this was $41K, later discovered that it was $58K in 4/07. After thinking it over, I believe he said he thought he could get $41K in his muscle car showroom and that's where I got the $41K from. $58K was for insurance purposes only, you all know that drill. 71GSx - SOLD/GONE 87GN - SOLD/GONE 93 Bentley - still available. I'm being asked to drive for weddings in April and May so am not in a big hurry. At least this one generates a little income on the side.
Still have the 70 GSX, the two 71 GS455 convertibles, and the Bentley if anyone's interested. The 71 GSx got picked up yesterday and is headed for Kansas.
Canton KS. I recommended you for any work he wants to do, but he's more than a couple hours away. Closer to Witchita. He said he has a son who's a senior in high school. That's going to be a happy kid when this car shows up. In my mind, without a doubt it'll be the coolest car in town. Seems like a lot of Buick and GS fans in KS. You should organize some local events in the state. Seems like at least one annual thing could work if you put your minds to it.
Hi Guys, I am happy to say that I purchased the '71 Black/Gold GSX clone from Mike. Awesome car! We drove 25 hours, 1700 miles over the weekend to pick it up. On the drive back, we could not stop anywhere without drawing a crowd of onlookers - Restaurants, Rest Areas, Gas Stations. Everyone wanted to look and make a comment. At one of the Rest Areas, I finally had to tell some of the admirers that we needed to move on. We couldn't get away. The "funniest" comment we received was from an admirer who with 100% sincerity said, "That's the best looking Cuda I've ever seen!" :spank: Guess he's just never seen a REAL car before. A bump for Mike. He was great to deal with and anyone working with him on his remaining cars should feel comfortable in the transaction. Thanks again Mike! I will take good care of your - Randy's - Gary's - old car. And Thank You too Dan for all of your information on the engine build - WOW - what a motor! Rex
Rex, glad to hear you found one. I know when we met last year at the swap meet you were on the look out. Congrats!! Jeff
Rex, I Knew you would be very happy with the car :laugh: and yes it is one of the nicest looking Cudas out there:ou: Like i said Dan builds one HELL of a motor. I hope you enjoy the car like i did and feel free to call me anytime if you have any more questions. That car was one of favorites and always will be if i wasn't building the Baldwin Motion Camaro it would be sitting in my garage.
I may look back on that as one that got away. Rex showed up and started telling me about things on the car that I didn't even know about. Switches here and there for racing stuff, etc. One thing I know for sure. Gary, Randy, I , and perhaps others will be following that car. When it goes up for sale again, and it will, if it's still in the same shape it's in now we'll all be drooling to get it back again if we can afford it. I've still got a couple of them to sell. With summer coming up soon, anybody want a convertible?
TTT. I'm a bit surprised that the converts had so many lookers but no takers. The GSX also had a list of lookers but no takers. Come to the picnic next weekend and take a test drive.
Burned some rubber on the GSX at the picnic. They should have put dashboard handles for the passengers in there like the Corvettes. That's my opinion, anyways. I let a friend drive one of the Buick guys from Louisiana. There are some black stripes on the highway out front that will take some time to come off.
These are some beautiful cars fellas!!!! Garrison did some awesome work on the white w/ tan top. Sounds meaner than the X!!!!!! But alas I drank too much to drive any of em!:beer ou:
Am still pushing the convertibles for sale. I may wish to keep the Stage1 and the GSX. Who wants a convertible? Spring is here!
