While Chevrolet may have dominated GM’s muscle-car lineup in the ’60s, those who wanted something more sophisticated would likely have considered the Buick brand an excellent option. The Gran Sport line was designed to rekindle memories of Buicks of old, which often featured large-capacity straight-eight engines. These cars offered powerful, fun-to-drive, yet prestigious options to those who could afford them. The Gran Sport of 1968 was based on the Buick Skylark. Our featured car is reportedly a restomod based on the Buick G/S 350. It features a 350ci V8 engine, as well as an automatic transmission.
The Buick G/S 350 was a two-door coupe, and featured the typical design traits of the era. This includes quad headlamps up front, along with a prominent front grille and chrome bumper. The hood features scoops, as well as grilles on the front fender and GS 350 badges. The exterior of this 1968 Buick GS Restomod is finished in a deep shade of green. It sits on 17-inch chrome alloy wheels, with drilled and slotted front rotors visible behind the rims. The tan interior features two individual front seats, lap belts, and a period-looking audio player. Also pictured is a Vintage Air HVAC control panel, while there’s a gauge cluster that features rpm and a 160-mph speedometer, along with integrated dials for water temperature, fuel level, oil pressure, and charging system voltage.
Under the long hood of the 1968 Buick G/S sits a 350ci V8 engine. Images depict that a FiTech Go EFI 4 600 HP system has been installed, along with an Edelbrock air filter and valve covers. This Gran Sport delivers power to the rear wheels, via an automatic transmission.

One of the first American marquees was Buick when it was established in 1899 by David Dunbar Buick. General Motors was established in 1908 thanks to Buicks popularity. Later, Buick became GM’s premium brand targeting the wealthy of North America. The only marquee above Buick was the upscale luxury brand Cadillac. As of today, Buick’s largest market is China, with almost 80% of sales originating from there. In 1965 Buick introduced the “Gran Sport” name for high-performance cars built by Buick. The beauty of the GS cars was that they were a perfect blend of high-performance, luxury appointments and comfort. The first GS was the Skylark in 1965, which was eventually replaced by the Gran Sport 455. A rare chance to own a magnificent piece of performance history is now at hand in the form of this 1970 Buick GS 455 convertible with 91,287 miles on the odometer and the best part being that the seller reports it to be a one owner car.
Over the years the General Motors brand has churned out possibly some of the most interesting cars ever made. Being the roof for many American automotive powerhouses it’s definitely hard for a singular vehicle to stand out amongst the ocean of greats. The Buick GS is one of the greats. The GS marque stood for Gran Sport and arose from Buick’s ideals of designing and producing cars which were not only fun but also luxurious as well. With Cadillac being the golden standard in terms of producing luxurious cars the Gran sport name was used since 1965 on many of Buicks models to showcase tire shredding performance with a touch of luxury. Bask In this 1971 Buick GS 455 Convertible’s monstrous performance and comfort that we have in inventory right now. Located in Illinois this car just has just 84,000 miles on the clock and reported to be mostly original and is also reported to have a nut and bolt restoration about 20 years ago with paperwork and receipts available with the current owner. This sure is a car that carries a lot of history and would definitely make you stand out.
The 1937 Buick Special Series 40 Convertible represents a distinctive moment in prewar American automotive design, blending elegant Art Deco styling with the smooth, streamlined proportions that defined Buick’s entry-level luxury models of the era. While Buick was known for refinement and engineering sophistication in the 1930s, this example advances that legacy by integrating modern performance and comfort into a classic platform. Finished in Silver and fitted with a Carson-style removable top, this restomod preserves the graceful lines of the original convertible while transforming it into a high-performance cruiser that bridges prewar aesthetics and contemporary hot rod culture.
Buick’s GS or Gran Sport tag was initially applied to the automaker’s Skylark model in the Sixties, before extending to cover hot variants of the Riviera, Wildcat and Century. Choosing a GS Buick meant that you were availing yourself to some pretty impressive and giant-killing performance. Here, we’ve got a 1966 Buick Skylark GS for sale from what better place than Indianapolis! With 2,600 miles since some comprehensive work, this beast comes with a 494ci V8, a T-56 6-speed manual box, a new black interior and many more things to make this Skylark soar like an eagle.
The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
