GSX - The Buick Super Car5835587
I'll discuss the Bethlehem Buick dealership, this was a very special car, with it's 455 CID Buick big block, which was pumping out a wonderful 510 FTLB of torque, which mind you, held the record for the best torque in the American car until 1992, if the Dodge Viper stole it's glory, but the Viper can be a special car, it's not as whenever we could all possess a Viper, but we might all possess a Buick GSX, now you might think Buick "That's a grandma car" but would certainly be wrong, oh so wrong. Many a races were lost for this car due to a not enough respect, a number of people were fooled from the name on these cars, but make no mistake, this car was fully competent at beating any car on the road throughout the muscle car era, a lot of people took these cars lightly, and paid huge expense of their disrespect, there were 678 Buick GSX super cars manufactured in 1970, there are 187 Apollo white GSX Buick's built, and 491 Saturn yellow ones.
The GSX sported a hood mounted tach; 3.42:1 rear gear ratio; G60-15 "billboard" Wide-Oval tires; an exclusive front stabilizer bar; plus a rear spoiler, the GSX also was included with a 4 speed gear box, as well as a Hurst shifter, the cars also were built with a special graphics kit installed through the factory, which included two racing stripes ruling the hood and deck lid from the car, as well as a thin stripe running down each side in the car.
The Buick GSX was nothing to laugh at, this car could generate your home, fully effective at providing your with a heart-attack style ride, this car wasn't for the weak of heart, it turned out not necessarily a grandma car.
I am in the automotive business for around 20 or Two-and-a-half decades, I've worked in every areas of a, from parts to restoration, many different makes and models, I just want to help keep people considering the old cars because it is where my heart is.
