The last word. '68 GS400 Buick factory show car thread.

You had to have the 67 GS with the Groovy interior to be with the '' IN CROWD " ( re license plate) so Big Daddy O wasn't square. Dig what I am saying man. Peace brother.

 

There has to be alot of basements or attics that have boxes of pics stuffed away from these car shows that someones Parents or Grand parents took.
Chances are one in a trillion that they will be found

 

Not to mention, Buick Motor Division had to have professional photos taken at some point.

 

Oh yeah, yup and there has to be a library full of info, pics and other designs somewhere in the vaults hidden. Very few Buick ad people from the day must be alive today..

I had posted a year ago that in the late late 70's or early 80's I sent a letter to Buick Motor Division asking for any info, pics etc. during the GS days.
2 weeks later I received a big stuffed envelope of goodies including a 1966 Dealer Brochure and 8 x 10 glossys of a 1967 GS. Somehow my letter got to the right caring person
40 years later is to long now to even get a response.

 

It would be great if this car showed up in a garage somewhere in Flint...

 

I think it would be even better if it showed up in a garage somewhere in middle TN.

 

So was this Sun Coupe a show car at one time?

 

Wasn’t it the companion to the ‘72 Electra Limited II? It’s mentioned in this month’s Bugle…

What, no inside door handles, how does that work?


BTW... Looks like something Liberace would have ordered.

 

That’s pretty!!

Looks like one of the 68 Olds 442 show cars survived. Still hope for the Buick hiding away somewhere.

OMG that interior is FUGLY.

 

It looked even worse in person.

 

Anyone recognize this one? Was in envelope with negatives of Brads X my dad had.
