1971 BUICK GSX Convertible- Clone for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 663 votes

I am selling my prized possession. 1971 GSX clone 350 4BBL. Originally a skylark custom that I bought from a well known Buick collector (2012 GS Gold winner). I have owned this car for 6 years. I bought it with a brad new rebuilt engine (350 4bbl) and I have put about 3. 00 miles on it since. The car had/has no rust on it at all with all original body panels. The top has been replaced as well. The interior other than the carpet appears original in awesome shape. Carpet is brand new. I did the GSX cloning last fall. It has a re-chromed N25 bumper with stainless tips and an NOS GS front grill. I got the rear spoiler at a swap meet a very long time ago before I owned the car (that's why I did the GSX thing!). I don't know if it is a used original or NOS as it was a gray color. The body and paint are perfect and the paint is less than 1 year old. The painter did a 1970 GSX that won gold at the 2012 GS nationals. concourse class and first place overall in significant shows in MA. The tires are new and the alignment that goes with them was done in the fall too. The options include

·         AC- blows cold

·         Tinted glass

·         Gauges

·         Stainless wheel well and rocker trim

·         Body molding

·         Clock

·         Cruise control

·         Tilt

·         Map light

·         Power windows

·         Am/fm

·         8 track

·         Rear fader and speaker

·         Split bench seat

·         Remote sport mirrors

·         Modern disc brakes

·         Power top

·         Console

Everything works as it should. The car drives perfectly straight. No weird sounds. tires don't rub it is a pleasure. It runs cool and doesn't steam and leak anti freeze when you stop. I would drive this car cross country with total confidence. Many convertibles can be sloppy this is tight. The rubber body seals are all original and some are cracked and hard. The front bumper and all of the stainless are original and so is the underside (no rust or dents just dirty). The glass looks great and is all original. There are no tears in the interior and it looks really good and clean. The top has two tiny tears see pictures. Exhaust has about 3. 00 miles and is in perfect shape.

So what's wrong… It leaks (tranny and motor oil) when it sits. Not much. This year I developed an exhaust leak at the front of the drivers side manifold. Easy to get at to replace the gasket. I am selling the car to cover college expenses for my kids. It is an awesome car to see and drive and I would never sell unless I had to. especially with all the money I recently put in it.

Is this car still on the market? I'm looking at a couple of Buick convertibles and was wondering what you would take for your car. I have $15K to purchase the car this weekend if it checks out. Does it still have the leaking trans and exhaust? I am looking at another 71 that has the 455 and it's going for $17,500. Thanks
