Default 70 Buick/Motion GSX

1970 Buick GSX 455 with A/T. The car sat for 23yrs in a basement of a building in Atlanta. Off frame restoration,documented by Mr.Rosen. Seen only at the Oct.2005 "The Forge" invitational. Looked the other way by Hot Rod magazine except for one sentence about being there. I'll try and give you guys more info at another time. But for now all I can say is "built Bad to the Bone by Buick, made Nasty by Motion Performance".

David...get your pics to Xplantdad on this site so we can feature it properly.Sorry you didn't get noticed at that show...the Supercar Reunion we put on every Labor Day weekend in St. Louis is the original and only show catering to the cars from Yenko/Nickey/Motion/Gibb etc. in the world. The press coverage is excellent and there are posts all around this site showing the many different magazine features from The Supercar Reunion.People who attend will tell you what a blast it is. Hell take it down the 1/4 if you like since we rent Gateway International Raceway .It's growing every year and this year will be the best ever.This car deserves to be there !! Very unusual...damn...Ratbird, GSX...now where is the elusive Oldsmobile from Joel ?
