Rev up your engines and dust off those aviators because we’re diving into the world of the 1970 Buick GSX 455 Stage 1, a muscle car so iconic it practically wears a cape. This black and yellow beast looks like a bumblebee that hit the gym, boasting a 4-speed manual transmission that makes shifting gears feel like cracking open a vault. If you’re looking to impress your neighbors or just want to inhale the sweet aroma of burning rubber, this classic GSX is your ticket to automotive glory.
The Buick GSX from 1970 to 1974 was Buick’s flashy response to the muscle car craze, boasting slogans like “Light Your Fire Cars from Buick.” Originally adorned only in Saturn Yellow or Apollo White, it packed a punch with a 455 V8 engine and optional Stage 1 kit, producing 350hp. Enthusiasts argue whether it could outpace the Hemi ‘cuda. Fancy a rare Stage 2? Look for Edelbrock B4B intakes and “Kustom” headers. Auction prices hint you’ll need deep pockets for this classic—maybe even a spare kidney!
