Here is an Ertl diecast of the beautiful and powerful muscle car intermediate from Buick in the GSX 455. This replica was in Ertl's "Body Shop" 1/18 series which you assembled yourself using the pre-painted body. This one is in "Arctic White".

Looks great in every shot! My favorite is with the palms!

It's a decent model and nice 1:1, but I've ALWAYS seen "too much Chevelle" in these. It's like the GM "badge-engineering-folks" got lazy. "OK fellas, it's good enough...."

@chris I've often thought that too Chris, but I think the Skylark GS/GSX looks better than the Chevelle. JMHO though. I always wanted one in 1/24, so I built my own GS and GSX out of the Monogram kits. They look great with my 1/24 diecast. Thanks for sharing yours with us. 💯😎

Fabulous pictures of Buick's torque monster. Thanks Mike.

I always had an appreciation for this sporty looking car due to its rarity vs. the awesome Chevelle. Body shell sharing is nothing new so I'm not bothered by that.
