'67 GS 400 Convertible Great looking GS. I remember seeing the same color scheme on a brand new 1966 Wildcat convertible in the neighbor's driveway when I was a kid. Those '67 GS 400s are sharp cars.My first Buick was a '67 GS 400 hardtop 4-speed.......John
Ron- That is one beautiful car. I think '67 was one of the best years style-wise. Best of luck to your son-in-law with it! Is he going to put the #'s motor back in? Or just have fun with it the way it is? I hope you bring this car to a Buick event this year. :3gears:
looks nice Ron really nice,`67s are the best looking GSs in my opinion,good luck with her,if you need any help or info just hollar i`m around and always willing to help out you guys. Thanks :TU:
Thanks George, the car is really nice. Thanks for your offer, and we do need your help. We need a "FAN SHROUD", there isn't one on this car. Looking for a "FAN SHROUD" Anybody out there got one ?????????? Thanks, RON
When I was 16 my neighbor was a collector and at one point and for quite a while he had a car almost identical to this one. Had a black interior instead of white. It was a low mileage original car. That was the first Buick I ever saw that I paid attention too. At that point I was into Oldsmobiles(my neighbor got me hooked on those too... he had several original w-30's). Your car brings back some nice memories! Bob
yea i`m looking for one for my convertible also,i know they repro them but the quality is junk. Thanks
67 gs sweet ,what do you have some sort of physco, oops, i mean physic powers the way you guys find these things?
My uncle (FrtlnrBuick) just bought a 67 GS 400 that is the same color (Ivory) as that 67, and his also has the same pearl yellow bucket seat interior. Very nice car. Kevin
