HI i am a new member from wisconsin. My first car in 1976 was a 65 4speed  gransport not a gs lol. rusty and tatered had it for a year. my brother's still have the first cars ss chevelle's my brother found my gransport in a junkyard picked clean.I started looking and found one in texas 3 yrs ago rust free but had been a drag car i have found a 401 and bellhousing still need some more parts. I currently have a 1965 300 and a 2speed auto in it it has 456 gears and is tached out at 45 but cant wait to get 401 and 4sp back in it. looking forward to some new friend's with great buicks.

I recall seeing a red 65 GS for sale in Texas online a few years ago. Is that the same car?  Didn't it have a chev 454 in it at one time?

This one had no motor in it when i found it. Maybe had a chev motor has a big norwood hood scoop on it.did you see it in hemmings?
online. It is kind of red very flat dull one repaint was originally red with white interior.I think it had a counsole there is some screw hole's where it would have been. my first gs did not have one so i have never seen one in person just pics. there was a wire that came off the factory harness that looked like it was for a tach or light.
