    Yes, this is a rare, true numbers matching, 1969 Buick GS400, Stage1. I have all the original documentation from the date of purchase to current 2021 for this beauty, including original invoice, protecto plate, service and parts receipts etc. (to much to list). This is truly a special car as you can see in the pictures. I am the third owner. It has lived its life in Southern California until I purchased it a few years ago. Like the original owners I have always garage kept and pampered her. She still retains a mirror shine of original Burnished Brown with the original interior. Everything on the car works as it should including the AC. It has 117,000 original miles. It doesn't smoke, make any strange noises, or have any drips. The car has been meticulously maintained throughout the years, here are just a few recent maintenance and service repairs:
    Alternator, fuel pump and lines, transmission rebuilt @ 110216, exhaust manifolds and gaskets, mufflers, carb rebuild, AC compressor ( R13 conversion), radiator flush, heater core, water pump, Rear differential gasket/service, shocks, brakes, 2 steering wheels (One original style and one Buick sports style), intake manifold, eldelbrock 2146.

    The only paint receipt for the car is from 1977 which is incredible, because the car looks amazing, with only a couple very minor blemish's. She has no rust or rust repairs anywhere. The interior is beautiful and comfortable. She drives beautifully with a lot of power and strong throaty growl. I have owned a lot of beautiful classic muscle cars over the years, but none in the condition or as documented as this GS400 Stage1, this is hands down the finest and why I have held on to her for so long. See video's below.

    Performance Data:
    GS400 Stage 1: 400 V8 345 bhp @ 5,800 rpm, 440 lb-ft @ 3,200 rpm.

    Performance:
    GS400 Stage 1 – 400/345: 0-60 in 5.8 sec, 1/4 mile in 14.4 sec @ 97 mph.

    See Videos links of my car below:

    I would have to see the POP. The R R stamp is the same font, same depth. That S is much different. The second 2 is a larger font then the first 2. I'm not saying it's not "numbers matching". Just looks very, very odd and very different from all of the 69 Stage 1 stamps I have looked at or seen...

    Considering he used a "b" for a 6 and seemingly (?) Mis-stamped the "R" maybe the guy was hung over (or high/drunk) or new or didn't care or all of the above, lol. Quality was Job None and they guy would be rofl if he knew this was an issue 50+ years later:).

    Dano- the b is correct. I’ve looked at ~ 6 original RS blocks and that was the stamp...
