1971 Buick GS 455 Stg1 Tribute

Vehicle Description

I have owned this car for 34 years. It was a solid Oklahoma 350 car that went through a nut and bolt restoration, including a detailed undercarriage and was completed in 2000. Since then, it has been driven about 12k mile, never in the rain. Because of several cross country moves it has spent a number of years in storage. The car is no longer a perfect show car but shows very well. The engine is very strong with a nice lopey cam (TA Hemi Killer) but because 455s are very torquey its very docile in traffic.1971 455 stg1 heads, 10.5/1 compression, All internals from TA PerformanceHigh performance timing/oil pump coverPoston aluminum radiator, painted to look stockHigh performance aluminum radiator, painted to look stockMallory electronic ignition with spark control/rev limiterNew Jet Performance 850 cfm Quadrajet carburetor, ethanol compliantElectric fuel pump with regulator, ethanol compliantTCI Turbo 400 w/2600 stall converter,10 Bolt posi with 373 gearsSuspension, Front - Adjustable coil overs, tubular A arms, 2" drop spindles.
