So this is where the "trailer hitch" four speed Stage1, that was sold at the Mecum auction a couple years ago, went to. He also has a restored triple brown four speed GS 455 convertible for sale. http://www.hendrickperformance.com/detail-1970-buick-gs-stage_1-used-7776000.html
The trailer hitch car was on consignment, not owned by them, and my understanding is that it is sold and pending pickup as we speak. I think the 4 speed car used to be Jim Lore's (long time ago) and was then owned by Dan A and Dan just sold it recently to ????.
Not sure now if it is your old car Jim, the dealership said it was bought out of Atlanta a few years ago and was originally an auto, sounds like a different car?? I just looked closer, this one has PW, as I recall yours was manual. This appears to be a different one.
Nope, he is still looking, don't think he saw this one. I didn't find it, the new owner (A member here) has been wanting it since he missed it Mecum. He has it home now and may bring it to BG.....
JJ is right this is the mecum car. no sale in '07 for $65k sold for $63,500 in 2009 in saint Charles. Didn't know RH bought it though. Al of his stuff has a 10% or so mark up DL
DL .....I think Chris was meaning it was on consignment to RH. That RH didn't purchase it at Mecum. I swear the Chris could write a weekly news letter about Buicks for sale and the people who are looking for them. I don't know how he does it. Have a good time at BG.
I just noiced the brown GS455 4-speed convertible also at Hendrick, I'm 99% sure it is my friend's (Bill Daniels) old car. Bill lives in the Atlanta area and his brown GS 455 was originally an auto and was properly converted to a 4-speed, and he sold it a few years ago. So that is probably the car they were speaking of. He took it to the GS Nats many times. The price has doubled from what he sold it for a few years ago.
Exactly! All the hot weather in TX is melting Don's brain. Don, the quote of my you were referencing is regarding the brown convert, not the blue hardtop. The blue car was on consignment, has been sold, and hopefully will be at BG by this evening....
Seriously man, how the heck do you track every Buick thats on the move in the entire nation??!!:eek2: Next time Im looking for one Im just gonna call you!!
This blue stage car is sitting in a trailer next to my 69 4peed right now at BG,its awesome up close ,come see it,a good ohio freind just bought it. gary
