1970 Buick GS 455 Stage 1 4-speed Cold Start/Walk Around. 

The 1970 455 stage1GS is a absolute legend!

A friend of mine in high school had 3 of these - all GS’s, all black. One350 auto, one 400 4-spd, and one 455 auto. Our last day senior year (‘82) he gave me a ride home in the 400 4 spd and he opened it up for me. I’ll never forget that. Haven’t seen hime since, so I don’t know if he still has them, but these have been one of my all-time favorites! Gorgeous cars, and that 455 was a monster!

They had the deserved reputation as the 'hemi killer'

I’m pushing sixty. Too young for the muscle car years. I’ve read every Musclemag in the 80s/ 90s. I have always respected and wanted a Buick stage 1. Also have really liked 67 GTX, 427 Fairlanes ……A few other beasts too. Love your car. Respects from Canada

Very underrated and capable of winning street races. 😇

BADASS car big torque monster it sounds wicked i would love to own it 455 4speed i love it HATS OFF to 1970 the last year before everything dropped off as far as horsepower and such

Another beautiful well known BEAST of 1970

I was driving a 67 chevelle built 327, 4 speed 411 gears. Got beside a 70 Pontiac grandville 455 automatic at a stop light. Green light we took off and that grandville squatted down in the back, the left front came up and that bad boy was gone. The chevelle just spun the tires. BOP 455s ain't no joke. My car 1975 firebird 1973 front clip RA hood 1972 455HO Pontiac TRW L2394 pistons Balanced and blueprint Ed 7f6 heads Comp cams bump stick 850 Holley dbl pumper hp series Torker1 Msd ignition 2 1/8 inch hooker headers M-21 3.08 gears. Your car is badass, beautifully done and she sounds great. 👍👍🏁🏁

I rebuilt my ‘72 Stage 1 with 11.5:1 pistons and custom 238/247roller. Like big block Chevys, Buicks do well with lots of compression and cam. That car ran like a M’fer. It was a tire-destroyer.

I could listen to this on repeat all day! My absolute favorite car.

F’in SICK GS 👊🏻 from a former 70 Pontiac 455 GTO owner and 2 -1987 Buick GN’s Torque monster, it could waste anything in its path would love to hear that M-22 “Rock Crusher”

In the late 90's, I bought a 70 GS455 convertible with, electric windows, 400th tranny and, front power discs brakes. It needs a complete rebuilt. It is sad to look at it, laying down in my backyard. You got yourself a gem.

My goodness... can't do nothing but smile💪🏾🔥🔥

It's been said the Buick GS in 70 was the fastest muscle car ever produced.

Excellent!!! TA-413 Camshaft sounds DEVASTATING 🔥👌🏽💯😃🎬

A wolf in wolfs clothing for sure...I'm very envious. That beast looks and sounds great.

I bought my 70 Stage1 in Manchester, Ct in 1983/1984 and drove it to my new home in Hamilton Ohio in 1985. White , black vinyl top with a 4 speed. I paid 1800.00 and sold it for 1200.00? to another 20something kid in Beavercreek Ohio. Never saw it again. When in Ct. I drove it to several Mopar shows, I love 67 to 69 V8 Darts and 70 Chargers, and I remember quite a few Mopar guys giving my the thumbs up. Very nice of them. Think about it a lot this days since old car prices are INSANE. Yes, according to MotorTrend it was the fastest 4 seater muscle car running a 13:36 in the quarter mile. Muscle Car Review Magazine did the awesome job of covering the famous 3 race shoot out between Roy Badie, avid Mopar guru, in his 70 Hemi GTX, claiming Buicks ran like they have trees tied to them. Thanks Richard Lassiter , was/is? GSCA Gran Sport Club of America president. He won 2 out of the 3 races against what should've been a superior car on paper. I still have the magazine to this day in 2024. Final note. Roy trailered his GTX to the drag strip and Richard drove his car to the event far from his home and drove it home. No doubt with a big smile on his face.

Such a sweet sound for a Buick!

These Cars were VERY UNDER RATED! SOUNDS LIKE WAR TO ME

Only today are these cars known and respected for what they are. I love my 64 Riv, but I would seriously consider a trade for a gs

Torque monster. Love the tight duration Incredible idle.

The Buick GS stage one is my favorite General Motors muscle car

I had a 70 wildcat with a 455 - 4 b in it . Was a super sleeper wasn't a car around could take me off a light really miss it . Only thing i don't miss was anytime you put your foot in it you literally watched the gas gauge drain before your eyes but it was worth it for the grin factor . Very nice car my friend sounds amazing .

Black Buicks are always so nice

This is a kick ass Buick love the throaty exhaust notes

Very sure we met and spoke about your '70 transition Stage 1 last Sunday at the Endicott show. I was the guy who built the clone and had it for 31 years and was excited to see your car, with both the early and late sequence parts right from the factory. Great car, thanks again for bringing it.

Looks exactly like my 70 stage one, but mine was blue with a vinyl top and an automatic. Ran low 13's at Hayward back in the day, was a fun car, used kenne bell parts in the engine for a little more hp...nice vid, fun seeing all around that car again

Very nice Buick!! , I am currently working on a 67 skylark hopefully one day mine will sound and look as good as this one!!

Goodday Brett, Far out dude I played that idle through my speakers at 110 % & love ittttt. I am so so envious of your Buick, it is a masterpiece. Can you imagine back in 1970, you just bought this GS / Stage 1 & every morning you have to listen to this symphony of muscle before heading off to work. Imagine the poor neighbors, but it is 1970 & this was normal. Love your GS, Here is why. All black & no vinyl roof. Both P/S & D/S mirrors Tacho Dash Wheel arch moulds Sill panel mould Chrome on Black Colour coded match rims Dog Dish Hubcaps Bucket Seats Just needs a centre console to finish it off, but mate it is a fucking awrsome GS love it. Enjoy the rumble before the Woke & LGBT alphabet people & Greenies deam it offensive. Hope to come to the states one day * meet & greet you & you take me for a fang in the beast of all beast. The Hemi Slayer. Your number 1 Fan in Australia Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia ☺ 👍 ❤

That baby is a beast!

Now THAT'S a nice looking & sounding original muscle car. Makes me want to drive back to 1969-71. U should add a vid whereby u let it "graze" as we said back then

Personally? It's the hub caps that do it for me. Thanks for the upload.

Had a 1970 Buick LaSabre 455-4 barrel quads 375 HP. it was a boat but had punch.

BADASS!!! the GS 455 stage 1 ate alota cars.

She stable to ,and really Raspy ,she probably can pop a wheelie if floored in the right place & time ,my old 71 Buick Skylark was like a Jet with four wheel and it was a automatic transmission,I would floor it then quickly let up and floor it again and she would fly on the road like a bird in the Sky ,well it was a Skylark. ✨🌟✨

Missed the release of this one brother, badass muscle car

Talk about your super rare. Not just a Stage 1, but a stick to boot. super nice. (From the "Tax-a-chusettes state) :)

Drove one to the last yr of hs ,great runners fast

The wide ovals look great on that bad boy

"Relaxation sounds!"

1970, 71 and 72 are my favorite years of the muscle car era I use to have a 1972 oldsmobile cutlass supreme and a 72 Buick skylark. I miss them both..they were far better looking and alot more comfortable to ride in than the cars they sell today. The price of cars today is outrageous!!..its not worth it..its a rip off. The repair bills are just as outrageous..so they get better gas mileage..so what!! I should've hung on to the old cars I use to have..they were so much better.

She's a beauty

God Dam " what a cam for a stock stick 😲

I had one that was a one owner and a local car. Red with white vinyl top & white interior. The car was stock.

Love seeing that 4spd

Bad ass... Looking for this very car to purchase! Beautiful

Love the old mass plate and the car is awesome my dad had a 70 455 4 speed but not a stage one he lived in Brockton mass

I hear some Mickey Thompson Super Scavengers! Sounds and looks AWESOME!

Gorgeous

Is that 56k ORIGINAL MILES?! That's less than my 2013 Genesis Coupe. 😲 Awesome classic. That 455 is an angry beast. 😈 And she started right up. Man...I could put this on loop just for the idle,

Love that hemi killer.

I'm a Mopar at heart, but among all the cars made by General Motors, IBuicks, Olds, Pontiac's and Caddies are my favorites. Nothing wrong with Chevy's, I just think the other divisions are cooler. XD One fine ride right there, lad! 😎👍‍

Super nice sound , no trumpet up it's ass! Beautiful Buick!

That looks and sounds almost identical to my 69 442. Same color too.

Absolutely amazing 👍👍👍

Buicks were built more for Luxury then performance but no doubt the GS & GSX were serious threat to other Muscle Car owners that got a fast wake up call when they lined up beside a BUICK :) There is a Big Reason why their slogan was GOING FAST WITH CLASS

Back in the days I had the same car, keep yours off the guardrails

That is music ! The Buick GS would rape all cars of the same era !

Ever learn something you should already know? The lesson for me today is Buick dog dish hub caps. Nice car. I guessing they are original.

Perfection.....

What a beast ✌️

She starts real easy Brett… nice video.

Nice ride

A Four in the Floor 💥✨🌟🎉🌟✨💥 and a Beast under the Hood 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Beautiful!

My dream car!

Very nice sounds good

sounds great !!!

That thing is sinister ❗️❗️🇺🇸🥊

Damn fine car

Lions drag strip early 1970s. No bone stock, Mopar, Chevy, Ford, or AMC could edge out a bone stock Buick GSX in the 1/4 mile. Close but no cigar.

I had the same car in Northern Virginia in the 80’s but I don’t remember such a large cam.

SWEET!

Very Nice

Someday maybe……..someday😢

Awesome!

I saw an original black one in a magazine when I was a kid. Supposedly the only one. Guy worked at gm and pulled some strings. Anybody else recall this?

I'll take it!!

カッコいい(≧∇≦)bですね～👍👍👍😊😉✨🎶このお車を見るとセダンでしたが、フレンチ、コネクションを思い出します～、魅力的なお車ですね～👍👍👍😊😉✨🎶💯

Sounds awesome! What kind of mufflers are you using?

Nice car

Had 1971 Buick GS 350&4Speed&3:64 rearend would beat any Roadrunner 383 4speed & any rearend they had in them!

I can imagine the smell of the un burnt gas behind this cars in traffic as my eyes water,it’s hard to get a big carburetor,big cam motor to burn clean on modern gasoline.

Awesome.. but with that big 455 I'd want power brakes and this one doesn't appear to have them

Whew ! ... That ain't Grampa's Buick ...

Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?? I would if it was that one 👍

Just bump the key and she gives perfection! Gorgeous! 3inch exhaust?

Bad azz

455 no Power brakes guess drums all around ? perfect !

she's a beaute

GOT A 69 WITH A 455 LUNATI HEMI KILLER CAM TA HEADERS WITH FLOWMASTERS SUPER 44 LOVE THE SOUND!!!!!!

Is that the cam it would have had from the factory? I love it

Thats a bad looking GS!! I would think that the 4 sp. would have to be kind of a rare option! What kind of cam are you running? My Nephew gave me a 1970 455 out of a Rivera it's an SF code motor.

Nice car and it sounds good. How do you get it to start right up?

I’ve heard of Rob Ross, and I’m only 15 minutes from Flatrock, I have a 455 I’m looking to build, does he do complete engines?

Is that 3 inch exhaust with Flowmaster original mufflers?

is it a muncie 4 speed? im currently putting together a 69 gs400 stage 1 car that has been 455 swapped and am looking at options for a fairly simple manual swap for it

If testosterone was an engine, it would produce this tone

Is there a difference between cold start and hot start?

This car is fueled by Hemi owners tears !!
