The info card on car said they only built 77 like it and only 7 had 4-speeds. Rare car.

Re: 69 Buick Convt
 

The car was sold new at a Buick dealer in Shelbina,Mo.

This is not true. I'd be willing to bet 77 4-speed Stage 1 ragtops were built. I know over 200 Stage 1 ragtops were built in total.

I might have read it wrong. 77 ragtop 4-speed cars only is rare. Maybe there was only 7 black ones?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

There wasn't GS400 post production either; only the GS California was a post.

Re: 69 Buick Convt
 

Cool car nevertheless. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
