Buick started using the GS, or Gran Sport tag on several models since 1965, to denote, as you guessed it, sporty yet luxurious cars from the General Motors marque. Buick sat second in the luxury hierarchy at the time, with Cadillac ahead of it, but the latter didn’t make sporty machines, so that mantle was Buick’s for the taking. Models such as this 1969 Buick GS 400 Convertible brought fun to drive characteristics to the luxury car brigade, and this particular car sports a reported numbers-matching motor and transmission. Two keys, for the ignition and trunk are included in the sale.
It’s not hard to picture this 1969 Buick GS 400 Convertible being driven on the silver screen, in its red paintwork and contrasting white convertible top, dual headlamps, ample chrome trimmings, and chrome hubcaps centered upon meaty tires. There’s also plenty of badging, including the BUICK script, GS, GS 400, and GS By Buick badging in various places on the car. The downward tapering lines at the rear lend a further touch of distinctiveness, and ends with elongated tail lamp clusters set in a lavish chrome bumper. The white interior of this 1969 Buick GS400 Convertible is actually closer to a shade of cream, and perfectly matches the lustrous red exterior. Offering the requisite creature comforts of the Sixties, you’ve got plushly upholstered seats, ventilation system, a two-spoke steering wheel, and original in-dash radio. The seller reports that the radio doesn’t function, but an extra unit is included with the sale so that you can restore functionality if desired. A little plaque in the door sills informs us that the body is made by Fisher, which was common practice in those years, to have bodies built by a separate coachbuilder. The trunk also appears in decent condition, and contains the spare wheel.
As the name alludes, this 1969 Buick GS 400 Convertible comes with an appropriately punchy 400ci V8 beneath the hood, that generated 340hp and 440lb-ft when new. The engine sends drive to the rear wheels via a three-speed Super Turbine 400 automatic transmission, and it’s said that 68 and 69 models came with a lower than usual first gear, making them quite quick off the line. Power drum brakes on all four wheels ensure steady stopping power, and power steering is present for easier steering duties.

One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today. With its 401ci V8 and automatic gearbox, this Miami-based classic is the perfect choice for someone seeking an unconventional automobile to cherish, and of course, drive.
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.

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.
