1967 Buick GS400 With A Stick!

Buick introduced a modern, new V-8 in 1967 and ‪@musclecarcampy9922‬ drives the first super car to use it. Best of all, it has a stick and lots of options.

[@audieconrad8995]

Man...all these years later, that car still has one of the BEST underhood looks EVER! This car is a fantastic feature.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Thank you, sir

[@randallfrank5682]

In October of 1966 I special ordered a 1967 Buick GS 400 and took possession of it in mid December. It was a blue hardtop with a black vinyl top and black vinyl bench seat. It had the 400 engine and that great air cleaner with the double scoop and a 4 speed stick. I burned lots of rubber with it.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Lucky you!

[@golfer78100]

Great job as usual, Jim!

[@agems56]

Carefree days with optional safety features, such as head rests and seat belts! As a kid in the sixties I sat in a metal seat which hooked over the front seat between my parents that had a metal unpadded make believe steering wheel attached on the bar in front of my own seatL Priceless!

[@musclecarcampy9922]

So did I. Car seat was in a ‘56, then a ‘59 Chevy.

[@mattgause3178]

That air cleaner on the car looks like a space ship I saw in the movie Star Wars.......totally aftermarket!!! Lol What a smoking beautiful car

[@musclecarcampy9922]

So crazy it was stock on the GS400 and (I believe) Riviera GS in '67.

[@slodzinskithomas2406]

I had a 1967 GS400 Buick also it was in mint condition I bought it in Florida. It had the original motor but it was built by Kenny Bell. It wasn't for Speed it was a automatic. What a beautiful vehicle

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Kenne-Bell knew how to make Buicks fly. I know Jim Bell. Cool guy. Just retired.

[@slodzinskithomas2406]

@@musclecarcampy9922 yeah that motor was powerful the only problem was the oil sending unit went bad and it blew the motor but I had a spare 67 Buick GS 400 with the engine block and had it rebuilt again

[@jimmyhamm6041]

My friend had the buick special they are so light weight in the rear . Beautiful car .

@@musclecarcampy9922 what a great guy to share his collection with us all, thanks Campy you clearly do this as a labor of love. Thanks man you’re one of the good ones!

[@golfer78100]

You're 100% correct......Jim Campisano is a wonderful guy! A true Car Guy and an absolute gentleman as well! ! Us car guys all owe him a debt of gratidute for his contributions to our hobby over the past 30 plus years.

[@DanEBoyd]

Magnifico!!! Love the rake that car has! I think that paint is the same as Pontiac's Black Cherry. Mercury also had a Black Cherry. My buddy's bench/4 speed '67 GS400 convertible once outran a police car - back when they were driving Fairmonts. It's a garage queen today. GM hit it out of the park all around, with their '64-'72 A bodies - and especially during '66-'69, styling-wise. (Of course we CAN'T ignore 1970...)

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Thanks.

[@golfer78100]

The paint color is called Burgandy Mist Poly.

[@skipkaye8532]

What a sound going thru the gears.😎

[@novawagon1965]

I had a friend of mine had 2 of these back in the mid 70s. One was blue with a white bench seat and the automatic trans. It was very fast. Sold it and then bought a black with black bucket seats,4 speed I don't think it had a console I told him at the time that he should keep it because you just didn't see many 4 speed cars but he sold it anyway. Good video I really enjoy your channel!!

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Wow.

[@nickbruni8041]

Helluva car … Helluva ride … Thanks Guys .👌🏼⛽️

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Our pleasure!

[@stanlee399]

This may be the pick of the crop for me out of all your cars on the channel Campy. What a machine, 4sp makes it 💥 Beautiful Buick too cool 😎

[@mikelevin4044]

I had one( my first car) but it was a convertable. I loved it

[@kimmorrison9169]

Always liked the looks of the ‘66&’67 GS models. Over $4400 in 1967 for a car like this was big bucks. All the other comparable GM muscle cars were less expensive.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Air conditioning was the high ticket item, but the four speed was pricey, too.

[@curbozerboomer1773]

My dad bought his first new car in 1967...A wildcat, with that hunky 4304bblV8...It was a large car, but would move down the road like a muscle car! He owned it for 22 years, put 320,000 miles on that rugged Buick.

[@bigmountain7561]

I forgot is that a Rock Crusher in that Buick. That one and the 442 were the Doctors Muscle Cars. I remember my Dad taking me to Wilkie Buick on Broad Street when I was a kid to see those cars.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Watch the video and find out. jk. We do discuss it in the second half of the video. It is a Muncie M-20.

[@golfer78100]

The " Rock Cruser" was an M22. The M21 was a close ratio. The M20 was a wide ratio.

[@bigmountain7561]

@@golfer78100 Hi Mike, nice collection first of all. I missed the part of the video because I paused it cause the furosemide kicked in. I remember those cars when I was little when I was at Waldron and my friends Dad would pick him up in a new Buick all the time. Can’t wait to see what other jewels you have, when you get over here to Sarasota maybe we can play some golf. Bobby Jones is almost complete.

[@golfer78100]

Hi, Thanks for the invite, but I'm not golfer. Hell, I wasn't even a good Caddy when I was a boy!!! So happy you enjoyed the video and it stirred some great memories for you. That's the greatest compliment I can recieve. A moment in time of a happy memory is indeed priceless in one's lifetime. Thanks for enjoying Campy's videos. Mike

[@bigmountain7561]

@@golfer78100 That’s cool Mike, it’s funny that all the cars when I was a teenager are now worth a boat load. Buick and Olds and AMC not as popular as the Chevelle’s and Camaro’s Vette’s and all the Ford heavyweights. Actually my favorite is The Machine. Wild paint job from when I was younger and still could hold its own on the street. But it was also different and that was what the car culture is, being different. Thank You for Your Kindness and showing us your babies. Lol…

[@haromaster6086]

Wow what an amazing car!

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Could not agree more.

[@rosspursifull5661]

I can remember Sid Shaffer in 1969 from Murphy ,Mo had one Identical to this car,its was a sweet fast ride.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Was it a race car?

[@rosspursifull5661]

It was said street car, he drove it everyday. This was like in 1969 , And he had bought it to replace his recently wrecked split window corvette. The car was identical to the one in next video. 4 speed .posi.3.91rear end .

[@dioad1739]

Mine was green with a black vinyl top a black vinyl interior bench seat so my girl could get real close it even had optional fender skirts or Crome fender trim I have some great memories from that car it was fast and drove and road so good I really miss that car.

[@ChicagoRob2]

That is a very rare car with a 4-speed.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

We address the actual numbers in the video. Rare but more common than you think.

[@joequillun7790]

Absolutely stunning. What a great example for Buick to join the hot-rod craze with. This car has "almost" everything the way I would've ordered it. (If I was financially sound..in 67). The color combo is how I would've colored my GTO. And of course, it has the all important 4 spd. (Being a New Englander, I would've opted out the A/C). Wonder what rear gear Buick put in these cars? Back in 77, I was doing over my 65 Goat, and I came across a gold one of these, with a stick, in a bone yard. In running condition. For $400. In decent visual shape. Not sure if it was a 66 or 67 tho. Had to pass on it. Thanks for posting another great one Campy.

[@musclecarcampy9922]

Uh, 3.36. We mentioned in the video.

[@DanEBoyd]

Oh how I wish for a time machine which can haul cars... When I was doing my kitchen in my house, I came acrossed some 1974 newspapers in the wall, which had been stuffed into a plaster repair. There were two C2 Corvettes in the classifieds for $1000 or less! One of them might've been a convertible too!

[@musclecarcampy9922]

That hurts. I missed out on a ‘65 396 roadster for $6,000 in 1986. Painful to think about.

[@joequillun7790]

@@musclecarcampy9922 Ooops. Sorry. I usually get to watch your videos in their entirety, but this one I had rushed thru,...(time restraint), and didn't get there...yet. But it is amazing you mentioned the rear gear, cause most videos I watch, many don't offer that info. Now I have time to check this out. Thanks for responding, and I won't let it happen again. :)

[@DanEBoyd]

@@musclecarcampy9922 Most people don't realize that a 396 was available in a Vette, due to that one-year availability. They only remember the 427 and 454...

[@agems56]

Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick? I have a 2017 Buick Enclave, and I must say I would love to trade it in for that car! No replacement for displacement!

[@billmagorian490]

Unfortunately you didn't have the owner properly miked. I would have loved to have heard his whole story.

The external mic on the GoPro only picked up me.

This is a very well done restoration of 1967 Buick GS400 that is very rare with a four speed and air conditioning. Another great video ! Keep them coming.
