    Guys, Im looking for a clean 71/72 Skylark convertible. A GS 350 vert would be nice but it may be out of my budget. Something with nice paint and no major rot. I'm looking for a nice cruiser that I can take to a local cruise night but something I wont feel bad about leaving outside with a cover on it. I would prefer no A/C. A roller is fine as I have a good 350 and a selection of transmissions available

    TIA!

    Have my 71 GS clone up right now if something like that would interest you. Its on Ebay with plenty of pics:

    Too far away and too expensive for J. Cook, I am guessing............

    I obviously don't know Canada geography very well! That is pretty far from Long Island! :Dou:

    Jason,
    How about a 71 Red Skylark Convert with 40,000 original miles. Beth might want to kill me but it is a nice car.

    Here are some pics from when we first bought it.

    Nice car. Black interior, non A/C. I like it. Hopefully its a black top. But it looks like a really nice car. Might be out of my price range

    Yeah it has a black top, and aftermarket under-dash AC (which I don't think is hooked up now), and it would be more $ then the blue one on the link.

    I have done a few things to it since we bought it, like putting 2 new top pistons in, and some other detail things. It still needs a new top, like it did when we bought it. I swear its the original top. The car has no rot in it anywhere. It was originally purchased in PA, then lived in Florida for like 20+ years, then came back to PA and I bought it.

    It needs a few things done, like rebuilding the carb, but it is a joy to drive, You can tell it's a low mileage car, you can steer it with 1 finger.

    That's a really nice car Duane! Looks like it should be in a museum . Too nice for what my plans would be for it. I'd ruin it!

    Cousin Ajesh,
    Yep, it's her car not mine. I bought it as a "get out of jail free" car until her Chevelle is done.


    ........besides we ALL know who the boss really is. Our cats.:laugh:
