Purchased new in May 1970 by current owner from Bob White Buick, Shrewsbury , New Jersey. This awesome Buick was custom ordered for the Commanding General of US Army Fort Monmouth and was delivered two weeks after he was deployed abroad. The straight elegant body shows off the dramatic character line that was Buick's trademark, displaying an imposing and sporting appearance. Today 45 years later this vehicle turns heads wherever it travels. The body is nicely preserved and all doors, trunk and hood fit well and sit flush. Plenty of chrome defines this luxury model with a nicely integrated bumper/grille combination up front and a wide chrome bumper in the rear (rechromed in 1999). New front bumper emblem was custom made when the original plastic one cracked (reproductions not available). The beautiful Red interior of this big Buick is all original with the exception of the front bench seat leathers replaced in 2012, colors are all vibrant with very little fading or sun damage. Factory options include: power windows, power bench seat, center rim "Horn blow" with wood insert (bakelite needs restoration), in-windshield hidden antenna and in mirror courtesy light. The gauges cover only the basics, but everythings clustered in front of the driver making it easy to find and use, including the power top switch and factory AM radio that still works like it should. The white power convertible top (original color) with glass rear window was replaced in 2012 along with the front Header Bow, cables, pads, piller and lock seals along with all door, trunk and window rubber seals. Power top and drivers door power window motors replaced in 2014. Buick's famous 455-4, 370 bhp V8 was a torque factory that generates effortless performance: 4.31x 3.90 bore x stroke, rebuilt to factory specifications in 2012 along with the transmission she runs like new and shows her power on the highway as it effortlessly glides at all speeds...15 MPG highway. Restoration also included new: oil pick up, alternator, fuel pump, windshield washer pump and hoses, new brakes and shocks. Restoration included correct engine paint color and repaint of the original air cleaner with new 455-4 decals from Buick NOS supplier. Heater hoses were removed when the car arrived in Florida in 2012 and can be reconnected before shipping if desired by purchaser. Repainted in 1991 by Summit Auto Body, Summit New Jersey stripped to bare metal and rebuilt using a 5 part process which produced a brilliant smooth show quality appearance. The finish still holds it appearence 24 years later but needs refurbishing or repainting to be a class "A" show car. Tires: (4) Michelin, all season Rain Force MX4, P235/75R15 M+S. Plus spare. This is the last of the big Buick convertibles manufactured in 1970 a total of 6,045 rolled off the assembly line, 2,249 less than produced in 1969. This vehicle has all the ingredients to make it a first class hobby/ show car:big horsepower, lots of options, great color combination and just one owner.
