My first college roommate at GMI lucked into a 1971 GS455 Stage-I as the second owner. A retired gentleman had gone into his local Buick dealer and asked for a car he could tow an Airstream trailer with. So he got sold a Stage-I with a class III hitch receiver! The dealer was not about to lose a sale. The OO traded the car in three years later, never having bought the trailer, so my roommate got a great price on it since the dealer really didn't want a GS with a hitch sitting on his lot. That car was scary fast because the tires were so undersized for the amount of power it had.
Congrats on having something so special! |

very cool!
I am thinking of the (?)Musclecar Review areticle about the 1970-1971-1972 Buick GSX, and how production dropped off exponentially after 1970; I am guessing that the Stage1 cars are quite rare - do you have production numbers broken down by transmission for 1972? (or other years) There used to be a 1973(?) Regal Stage1 car that parked on the street in Lethbridge...

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
