A friend of mine in high school had 3 of these - all GS’s, all black. One350 auto, one 400 4-spd, and one 455 auto. Our last day senior year (‘82) he gave me a ride home in the 400 4 spd and he opened it up for me. I’ll never forget that. Haven’t seen hime since, so I don’t know if he still has them, but these have been one of my all-time favorites! Gorgeous cars, and that 455 was a monster!

I rebuilt my ‘72 Stage 1 with 11.5:1 pistons and custom 238/247roller. Like big block Chevys, Buicks do well with lots of compression and cam. That car ran like a M’fer. It was a tire-destroyer.

@@stefanovichmichael9686 one time out of a hundred I wouldn't call a slayer. Is it a stout engine yes,but we all know the Hemi has changed a lot of rule books.
Cant beat the sound of American muscle. Who wants a lambo or Ferrari when u could have something like this❤. No comparison imo. Beautiful car my friend
These were considered Kings. I remember a bunch of them cruising back in the 80’s. One of them could switch lanes without turning the wheel, tapped the accelerator and slid sideways. A late friend had one and let me drive it, pure beast.
In the late 90's, I bought a 70 GS455 convertible with, electric windows, 400th tranny and, front power discs brakes. It needs a complete rebuilt. It is sad to look at it, laying down in my backyard. You got yourself a gem.
In the Jan '70 issue of Motor Trend, they tested 2 identical GS 455 stage 1 cars. One 4pd, one Automatic. They even hired a professional driver. The 4spd ran 13.58 @ 104.5 The Auto ran 13.38 @ 105.5. That held the Motor Trend record until 1980 or '81 when a Porsche Turbo Carrera tied the 13.38
MOTOR TREND PLACED THE 1970 BUICK GS STAGE 1 BEHIND A 427 COBRA AND A 427 CORVETTE. THEY WERE QUICKER THAN THE GS STAGE 1. THEY WERE SPORT CARS/ AND 2 SEATERS. ( THAT WAS M/T )
I had a 70 wildcat with a 455 - 4 b in it . Was a super sleeper wasn't a car around could take me off a light really miss it . Only thing i don't miss was anytime you put your foot in it you literally watched the gas gauge drain before your eyes but it was worth it for the grin factor . Very nice car my friend sounds amazing .
True. I had a '68 Electra, 430-4 (you Buick guys know what that means). It was ordered as a "stripy"--no AC, PS, PWs, etc. It was as quick was anything I came up against. Never lost race, and even took a few motorcycles, much to their surprise. 10 MPG no matter how it was driven.
I bought my 70 Stage1 in Manchester, Ct in 1983/1984 and drove it to my new home in Hamilton Ohio in 1985. White , black vinyl top with a 4 speed. I paid 1800.00 and sold it for 1200.00? to another 20something kid in Beavercreek Ohio. Never saw it again. When in Ct. I drove it to several Mopar shows, I love 67 to 69 V8 Darts and 70 Chargers, and I remember quite a few Mopar guys giving my the thumbs up. Very nice of them. Think about it a lot this days since old car prices are INSANE. Yes, according to MotorTrend it was the fastest 4 seater muscle car running a 13:36 in the quarter mile. Muscle Car Review Magazine did the awesome job of covering the famous 3 race shoot out between Roy Badie, avid Mopar guru, in his 70 Hemi GTX, claiming Buicks ran like they have trees tied to them. Thanks Richard Lassiter , was/is? GSCA Gran Sport Club of America president. He won 2 out of the 3 races against what should've been a superior car on paper. I still have the magazine to this day in 2024. Final note. Roy trailered his GTX to the drag strip and Richard drove his car to the event far from his home and drove it home. No doubt with a big smile on his face.
Very sure we met and spoke about your '70 transition Stage 1 last Sunday at the Endicott show. I was the guy who built the clone and had it for 31 years and was excited to see your car, with both the early and late sequence parts right from the factory. Great car, thanks again for bringing it.
F’in SICK GS 👊🏻 from a former 70 Pontiac 455 GTO owner and 2 -1987 Buick GN’s Torque monster, it could waste anything in its path would love to hear that M-22 “Rock Crusher”
Looks exactly like my 70 stage one, but mine was blue with a vinyl top and an automatic. Ran low 13's at Hayward back in the day, was a fun car, used kenne bell parts in the engine for a little more hp...nice vid, fun seeing all around that car again
Incidentally, that's how it was ordered new. When a wheel option wasn't checked off, that's what you got. The car was repossessed very early on and the dealership swapped out the steelies/caps for the flashier chrome rally wheels. I was lucky enough to find these correct 14×6 wheels last year and had the caps sitting on a shelf for the last 20 years.
Now THAT'S a nice looking & sounding original muscle car. Makes me want to drive back to 1969-71. U should add a vid whereby u let it "graze" as we said back then

1970, 71 and 72 are my favorite years of the muscle car era I use to have a 1972 oldsmobile cutlass supreme and a 72 Buick skylark. I miss them both..they were far better looking and alot more comfortable to ride in than the cars they sell today. The price of cars today is outrageous!!..its not worth it..its a rip off. The repair bills are just as outrageous..so they get better gas mileage..so what!! I should've hung on to the old cars I use to have..they were so much better.

I had the same car in Northern Virginia in the 80’s but I don’t remember such a large cam.
That's the TA413 I used during the rebuild back in early 2020.
This. Engine sounds like it. Had. A high. Performance. Cam shaft installed it wouldn't sound like this with a. Factory cam shaft
1970, 71 and 72 are my favorite years of the muscle car era
I use to have a 1972 oldsmobile cutlass supreme and a 72 Buick skylark.
I miss them both..they were far better looking and alot more comfortable to ride in than the cars they sell today.
The price of cars today is outrageous!!..its not worth it..its a rip off.
The repair bills are just as outrageous..so they get better gas mileage..so what!!
I should've hung on to the old cars I use to have..they were so much better.
Q-jet's are the best.
A great carb with an undeserved bad rap.
And they only needed one to smoke a hemi
Beautiful!
Thank you! ☺️

GM's Bada$s 455 trio BUICK_OLDS_PONTIAC !!!
That thing is sinister ❗️❗️🇺🇸🥊
I’ve heard of Rob Ross, and I’m only 15 minutes from Flatrock, I have a 455 I’m looking to build, does he do complete engines?
I know he's assembled quite a few recently.
If you're on the "Buick GS Owners" page on Facebook, you can find him there.
Awesome.. but with that big 455 I'd want power brakes and this one doesn't appear to have them
This car was originally ordered to do one thing and apparently, stopping wasn't one of them. 🤷🏻♂️😂
