Bill Sales 1970 survivor GSX
Today I went to the Chicagoland Buick GSCA car show in Naperville, IL.
I had the pleasure of meeting fellow member Bill Sales (#7) and his stunning survivor 1970 GSX. Most of you will get to see the GSX at this years GSX Gathering. Trust me....you will all be as speachless as I was to see this car is person. Bill is also a very nice GSX owner, since 1975.....very cool! Enjoy these pics.

Re: Bill Sales 1970 survivor GSX
He had this car at last years Nats too, but I didn't get the chance to speak with him at that time. I do have a few photos to share. It was great to see it then.

Re: Bill Sales 1970 survivor GSX
I can look at unrestored cars all day. That's sweet! I would have left mine original if it was anything close to this nice,BUT..... being that it was the wrong color, with the wrong top half, non-working ragtop, cracked windshield,caved-in rusted out fender, and trashed seat , why not restore it? It was fun when it was running, driving it and not worrying about things like washing it, or polishing the non-existant chrome.

Re: Bill Sales 1970 survivor GSX
DL, after i sold bill the X, i did the family thing, got married, bought a house and raised 3 kids. the whole time i squirreld my pennies away until i could find another GSX. I FOUND IT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO IN SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. i've been lucky enough to own gsx#7 and now gsx#2.
