    Well, after over a year of blood, sweat, tears, and cash, the Buick is finally "done" (about 99% anyway). This is the first pics I have posted of her and hope she is to all of your liking. I will update soon.
    1970 Skylark Custom
    Orig. 350
    78K miles
    Started as a maroon with black vinyl top and pearl interior. 350 auto, all original drivetrain and sheet metal. Motor has some mods and is pretty stout and sounds great. Let me know what you think.

    That is just fantastic. I love the color combination. You have a unique combination that looks like it came from the factory.

    Car looks great, very nice job. One question - what size tire are you using and is the suspension the stock ride height? May consider the same set up for my 70 GS350.

    Thanks

    Thanks for all the supportive comments. The tires I will have to double check on the size tonight, not sure off the top of my head. It is the stock suspension setup. As for the color combo, I thought it would be different enough to stand out. It is DuPont Gun Metal Gray Metallic and the pearl is called White Diamond (GM Color from Cadillac and Buick mostly).
