@Mr31368 72 was the last year for the Skylark GS, the Regal GS or "Gran Sport" as the name plate read started in 73. I like both body styles. Don't forget 73 had all sorts of evil pollution control stuff and bulbous 5mph impact bumpers. A lot ofg extra weight. A 73 or 74 stage 1 4 speed would be a nice addition to anyones collection. GTO and Olds used this same body style for those years. Even Chevy had the Can Am which shared the same footprint.
out of the 1970 GM A-bodies (chevelle, gto, 442, gs, and monte carlo) the Skylark was considerably faster than the others, mostly due to the fact that buick built these cars with a LOT of low end torque to get them moving because the front end was also heavier than that of the other A-bodies.

I think you are right snowman4839. Seems like '72 was the last year for the Regal GS.I know they still made the gs in '73 but they were UGLY!!

@ILIVEINANASYLUM Ummm dude... they didn't make GSs in 1974. Unless you're talking about a Century GS or something
