  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I'll probably start splitting it in 2 weeks.

    Here is an interesting and rare option on this car. These are mounted up inside the cowl on both sides. One looks like it’s been replaced at one point. Both of them work...but are nasty.

    The forced air I-55* forced air option with the switch in the radio bezel. I had that on one 70 stage 1.

    * --I2 Forced Comfort-flo Ventilation option. I look it up and saw that only 333 70 GS Buicks were ordered with this option.

    My GSX had them, rudely installed and heavy IIRC!

    What a terrific project car. Don't know what the initial investment is, but this looks to be one that has a chance of not going underwater.:)

    The owner asked me not to post any more photos. But it’s back as his place. I completed paint and body work, and assembled the front clip.

    BUQUICK I'm your huckleberry.


    Here Ryan, I'll help you. It looks like this but with different tires and a different emblem on the fender. It's kinda like a GSX, they all look alike and if you've seen one, you've seen them all. :)

    IF (just saying IF) he wanted to do an unveiling at an upcoming MCACN show, showing pics now would be very much frowned upon......

    Ajesh, show him a picture of the factory spare out of the trunk I delivered to the GS nationals from Oregon. Member GoldX received it from previous owner during a chance meeting many moons ago.
