i have a 65 4 speed car now thats so ruff its just about a parts car, but i just cant chop it up..so complete numbers car..

my first GS was a turquois 66 auto car, then i bought a real 4 speed GS vert with a/c very rare..i have a few 66s sitting around now, and another 65 auto car...

i call myself a Pontiac guy with Buicks and Oldsmobiles, but ive always gravitated to 66 GS Buicks..id rather have one of them than any 66 or 67 GTO

Awesome! Man I remember building the 401 in stages because EVERYTHING seemed to cost 2-4x what a SBC would have cost to rebuild. Loved that car, drove it across the country once and back and forth a few times between LA and northern Nevada. Had power windows and the 4-speed and Posi and that was pretty much it for options.

I bought it from a dentist in the San Fernando valley, just a really cool dude. He drove me from his house to where the GS was stored in his ‘66 Electra 225 and blew a few lights along the way, thought I was going to die on that trip....

Then I towed it back from Northridge to Claremont with a tow bar attached to my old land cruiser, and almost died on that trip getting it home!

Fun to reminisce....
