GSX - The Buick Super Car6513131

I will chat about the Bethlehem Buick dealership, it was an extremely special car, with it's 455 CID Buick big block, that was pumping out a fantastic 510 FTLB of torque, which by the way, held the record for the most torque within an American car until 1992, in the event the Dodge Viper stole it's glory, nevertheless the Viper can be a special car, it is not as when we could all own a Viper, but we're able to all own a Buick GSX, congratulations, you could imagine Buick "That's a grandma car" but you'd be wrong, oh so wrong. Many a races were lost for this car due to a deficiency of respect, many people were fooled from the name on these cars, but make no mistake, this car was fully competent at beating any car on the highway through the muscle car era, lots of people took these cars lightly, and paid much price of their disrespect, there was 678 Buick GSX super cars stated 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; a special front stabilizer bar; as well as a rear spoiler, the GSX also had a 4 speed gear box, plus a Hurst shifter, the cars also were built with a special graphics kit installed from the factory, which included two racing stripes ruling the hood and deck lid with the car, plus a thin stripe running down each side of the car. The Buick GSX was not laugh at, this car could put you in your spot, fully competent at providing your having a heart-attack style ride, this car had not been for the weak of heart, it was usually not a grandma car. I have been in the automotive business for about 20 or 25 years, I have worked in most elements of the, from parts to restoration, many different brands, I just want to keep people enthusiastic about the old cars because it's where my heart is.
