    A few weeks ago, I wrote a long narrative about a 1970 Buick GS 455 I had acquired and want to sell once I had received a clear title. The board removed it because I did not post the ad with a price.
    I received the clear title and would rather have the ad reposted back into the cars for sale section rather than rewriting the entire post.

    Is that possible as I am ready to put a price in the ad.

    Thanks.

    I have recently acquired what appears to be an all original 70 GS 455 convertible. I am waiting on the title to come back before I officially post it for sale but I wanted the members to know that it is coming. This GS has a paint code of 48B which I believe is Sherwood green with interior and top code of 154 that I think is ivory. I have the protect-o-plate and original owner's manual that shows it was delivered in Ohio; a true barn find. The GS has power windows and locks, AC and a bench seat. The belt is still on the AC compressor. The rockers are rusted to the point that the doors do not close but there are no signs of body damage otherwise. The bottom of the cowl, core support and front inner fenders are rusted too. The fenders that are off the car look real good as do the bottoms of the doors, the rear drip channels, below the windshield, the quarters, the non-original GS hood and the trunk lid. The GS is missing the grill, AC condenser and the quarter extensions but has the original 14 inch wheels with disc brakes. A partial front driver's side floor pan is present and the trunk pan is still there but needs to be replaced. I'm also going to sell with the GS a fully restored disc brake frame with new brake lines, brakes and springs. I will try to get some photos loaded but was not able to do so. Everything motor-wise, GS 455 air cleaner, tranny and rear end look original; carb, intake, exhaust manifolds and the Quadrajet ends with "40". I was told the GS was driven to where it sat for many years in a barn in Richmond, Texas near Houston. I did not try to raise the top but the mechanism looks intact. Anyway, I don't have the time and space to restore this gem but given the originality and relative rareness of her, it will be worth it for someone.


    Please post it like this, much easier to read:
