Default 70 Buick GS stage 1 convertible

This is not hypothetical....
What is a 4spd, 70 GS stage 1 convertible worth and how many are out there?
Fully matching drive train, older driven resto, full owner history, original build sheet and great color.

thanks

JOHN

I think its worth the same as the night in the Belagio penthouse during Sema. How are you doing?

My uncle has a 72 with the same description as yours. 84 or so made in 72 combining autos and 4-speeds. Pretty desirable car to say the least. Especially a 70 Stage 1! I think they made 232 in 1970 with 67 being 4-speeds. Hope this helps.

Ahh Phil gets right to the point
Can;t say out of fairness to the owner. It is very desireable though.
Maybe you should have grabbed me a few more beers when we were BSing at Russo and Steele......

And there is a good story from the Belagio..........

Have to buy me or Richard many beers to find out
and maybe i'll give you a black jack lesson like i gave my pals and the casino that night.

On the car, i have heard that there are only 9 surving 4spds documented with orginal drive train.

Hey John, There's beer waiting on you in Dallas. Come on down. Sounds like the cards were running your way. I hope enough to buy a Buick. I think a done stg rag with 4spd will do 250k or so in good colors. At least one has brought alot more but I'm not sure that sale can be repeated. If it needs doing then around 150k, then add at least 100k for resto. Those are my best guesses because that's all I'm qualified to do. Good luck.

John,
Do what you want with the GS, just DON'T play cards with Phil S.

Alternatively, Phil, after you play cards with Johnny Depp Voice, can I buy his cars from you?
