Tires are BF Goodrich TA's, R235/15's mounted on flawless Buick Rally wheels. The frame is street-clean the car is driven and not a trailer queen. It sticks to the road and corners with no roll or sway. The suspension was upgraded with Hotchkis and Global West components which makes the car ride and handle like a new car. Tilt wheel, map-reading light and the optional sport wheel are 3 of the more desirable options that come on this car along with power steering and power front disc brakes. No hang-on unit or external speakers allowed here. A Buick, factory 8 track tape player was installed as part of the restoration and plays like new through the radio speakers using the factory wiring harness. All upholstery was redone including seats, headliner, carpeting and door panels, as was all rubber weatherstripping and seals. The AC is complete and includes a new compressor but will need to be charged with either R12 or 134A, your choice. The rear end is a 12 bolt, 3:73 posi unit. No corners cut, all quality workmanship and materials used.The engine is original to the car and was rebuilt to Stage1 specs and has maybe 3000 miles on it since the rebuild, same with the TH400 transmission. No expense was spared in doing this car the right way. All wiring harnesses were replaced, front to back. Bumpers are show chrome and all stainless trim is original and polished out.
#1973 BUICK CENTURION APOLLO RED CODE#
Color is Fire Red, paint code 75, with a black vinyl top, just as it came from the factory. It is in high #2 condition and one of the nicest examples in the country that you can actually drive and enjoy.
The car was restored (Frame On) in 2012/2013 when it was stripped to bare metal and disassembled down to the bare body leaving only the drive train intact. It is a Carolina car, never any northern rust. This is a Sloan documented 1970 Buick GS455, one of 5589 Hardtops produced that year.
