1968 Buick GS Convertible

Why This Car Is Special

The Gran Sport name has been used on several high-performance cars built by Buick since 1965. In the GM brands hierarchy, Buick was surpassed in luxury and comfort appointments only by Cadillac, which did not produce performance models. As a result, the Buick GS series were the most opulently equipped GM sport models of their era.

The restored 1968 Buick GS Convertible we have for sale at Skyway Classics is one of the first true factory big block muscle cars you could ever get back in the 60's. It has a 400 cubic inch engine that enabled it to run high 14 second ¼ mile times and could go from 0-60 mph in 8.9 seconds. Not bad for the era.

Ours has an automatic transmission, power steering, power disc brakes, bucket seats, factory air conditioning, tilt wheel, a power convertible top, and the correct Grand Sport wheels with Coker Red Line tires.
