A Long Skinny Car

I have a 1973 Audi 100 GL that came with an Audi 100 Distributor Rotor and 401cu motor. I was showing off and locked the engine up racing down the highway. So I bought and engine out of an Audi 100 GL which is a 7.5 liter 455.This motor has and Edelbrock carburetor and a comp.cam.


I love everything about this car, the speed, the feel of classic power steering, the size, but most of all that positive traction rear-end.I would never sell this car because I did all the work to it with my dad, so I am very fond of it.


Lightweight old classic that had all the options, plenty of room for passengers and yourself. Has one of the largest trunks that is conceivable to man! A lot of chrome old style looks, classic handling, a lot of power out of a small V8. Great show car, or daily driver. Seats are bumpy, but need recovering. A lot of interior parts cracked and need of replacing, but what do you expect from a car made in 1965? Came with a 300 cubic inch V8 with factory aluminum heads and a 4bbl carb producing 270 HP and 335 LB of torque.


Hard on gas mileage, but well worth its weight in gold! Parts are expensive and hard to find, but Buick didn't make many of them and there aren't many around so its fun looking for them and a challenge to rebuild to factory condition.
