1969 Buick Skylark Base Purchased on 11/13/18 in Collinsville, Tx with my brother Chris Taylor from 5th owner who had owned for 24 years and car had never run during that time. Bought to get it running and leave as patina. Changed out original 350-2 engine with 2 speed turbo transmission with Shane Butler due to rust in block with a 69 350-4 RP engine & 350 Turbo Transmission. Ray Engine had to bore 2nd engine .30 over with new pistons, rings, push rods, lifters with a TA Performance...
Been a while sinc my last post. I now have the lift installed and the GS scattered. Went with a Danmar ACX10. It's great. Fabbed a rotisserie for $250 using mostly pack rat material. It works great too. Will be taking the frame for rust dipping and will have the body media blasted. I will complete the chassis before touching the body. If I do this right I will also post photos. Long road ahead.
my first car and where my love of buicks came from,affectionantly called the beast by a couple of friends who were honda and volkwagon enthusiust.
Series 4637 2-dr hardtop. Originally 401 / TwinTurbine Dynaflow/ TorqueTube/ Buick 3.23 axle. On it's way to being a 455 T/A Stage II / TH400 / Dana 60 3.73.
Purchased a “street sleeper” big block Skylark. Trying to make it an ornery cruiser. Switch from drag setup to more of a cruiser style while keeping the rowdy motor and possibly adding fuel injection on it (Holley Sniper?)
