Description

The beautiful Buick Skylark Custom that you see here began life at the Fremont, CA plant and was painted Fire Red (75) with a Pearl White (155) interior. Additional options include power steering, power brakes, power windows, power top, tilt wheel, and air-conditioning. The car was sold new in California and remained there with its original owner until 2011 when it was sold to a collector who restored it to GS Stage 1 specification, an upgrade from its original specification. According to historians, only 81 convertibles left the factory with the Stage 1 engine option, so it is understandable that the unique configuration is often duplicated during the restoration of these cars. This particular restoration was of a very solid, straight, rust-free car that received a 455 cubic inch big block engine built to Stage 1 specs. Additionally, it received a 4L80 overdrive transmission, 12-bolt 3.42 posi-traction rear end, and a custom stainless steel exhaust. All power options that were previously on this car were retained and are in working order today. The beautiful red paint is a PPG mixture that has been covered with a clear coat. The interior pieces were supplied by Legendary and a black Haartz cloth top was installed. All chrome was re-plated while the stainless was polished. Merging the power with the pavement are eight inch wide wheels from Wheel Vintique that are wrapped in appropriate BF Goodrich rubber. This is a great running and driving car that is very comfortable and reliable when you want it to be and a beast when you don't. It is offered at a fraction of the cost it would take to duplicate.
We are a licensed California dealer and will collect sales tax and process registration from any CA resident who purchases this car. If we are selling out of state, no tax will be due, however the car must leave the state via a licensed transporter. We are happy to assist with transportation out of state, but the charges will be the responsibility of the buyer.
