    1970 Buick skylark convertible, 350 2bbl., auto. Brown w/off white top.- 182,00 miles or so the title says. I think it's 82,000 orig. factory style duals. It's nothing 'Special'(pun) it's a Custom, and has NO OPTIONS except power top, PS & PB(drum),and tilt column. I don't know rear ratio. All original and dirty underhood. Car was done over a few years ago. the quarters and fender heels have been puttied up poorly, doors are bad on inside seams, but it looks good from a distance and all the paint is shiney. The top has a few small tears in the usual places. .It has the 15" road wheels, decent tires. frame is solid with only light surface rust. ALL the floors are still good including the trunk, NOT rotted under battery. The bumpers and rest of bright trim are in much better shape then you would expect. The Brown, bench seat, carpet, dash pad & rest of interior is also in good original shape except for the left door panel. It has a nasty sounding exhaust leak at the left manifold and if you REALLY know Buicks that CAN be a pain to fix. I don't see a crack in it.All weatherstrp show age. I have no indoor storage and an old convertible shouldn't sit out. Drives fine. missing center caps,rear wheelwell moldings,headlight bezels and letter'K' on hood. Windshield replaced. It's very presentable in current condition and could easily be made nice without a frame-off $4900 Cash or trade for clean 70-72 hardtop or certain Diesel trucks, and sorry, but I do not negotiate cash prices so don't come to 'kick' the price down. Can assist in any long distance shipping.

    Found out today it also has a WORKING speed alert- KOOL
    a LITTLE mushy in the shock dept., but steers and brakes tight. Much tighter than the top is. LOL

    I may be interested in caps if Crossy isn't.

    ummm- thanx--- i think- you musta been on that- i didn't load those pics until 3AM sat. morning.

    Anyway, as you can see i am not trying to hide anything. i took pics of the worst of the bodywork and the worst i saw in the trunk. Nothing scary under the car. Crossy

    one bump- got the hood letters. Also Found a NICE & WORKING quadrajet from a 68 Buick 350 that i can include incase someone has ideas of upgrading to a 4bbl. I did have a club member here looking at the car and he did say in was in no worse shape than he expected, was impressed with tight driving of the car, but he found another closer to his home, a LITTLE better shape(more money), but in colors he liked better. He didn't like the idea of trying to find a good left door for this one because he wants one he can cherry out. LIKE I SAID it is very presentable and driveable as is. there are more pics on my photobucket now of the straight bumpers. Crossy
