Hello! I am glad to be here! I am going this upcoming Saturday, 01-04-20' to purchase a "1972 Buick Skylark Sedan 350". It is All Original, a True Survivor that has never been Restored with only 36,000 Actual Original Miles. I have been an Active Member on the Classic Oldsmobile Forum for quite some time as the last 2 Classic Cars that I have owned were Oldsmobile's. But with that said I have had my share of Buicks in the past including a: 1972 Buick Skylark Coupe 350, 1973 Buick Le Sabre Custom Sedan, 1962 Buick Special Deluxe Sedan and now this one. I have Attached some Pictures. More to come on this Buick once I get it home and get started on it... Thanks for looking!
Welcome! The car your purchasing was discussed not long ago in a thread around here somewhere. It looks remarkably clean!
Welcome from Georgia! I’m glad the car is getting saved-too many of those got used up as cheap transportation. Patrick
Thanks Briz, Shawn, 2001ws6 and Patrick! I did see a Article on the car on www.barnfinds.com Shawn do you remember where it was mentioned on here to where I can see it maybe?
Pat, here's the link for the conversation on this forum. http://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/really-clean-72-skylark-4-door.352776/
Yes Bill I have fell guilty of that myself when I was younger with the 4 doors in the junkyards, but the classic car junkyards don't exist around here anymore, its all about eBay and forums like this one.
Think yours & mine only ones i remeber seeing Are wheels identical & trim different from olds to buick ?
Well I did go and purchase the car this past Saturday, 01-04-20', I drove it 3.5 Hours home with no problems or issues, it drove, rode, stopped and handled very well to be a 47 year old car with points ignition and drum brakes on all four corners, I will be going thru my original process of totally refreshing the entire car but leaving it as stock and original as possible. I have already started and will keep everyone up to date on it progress.
