https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3394888267482712

I have 4, 1970 buick skylarks for sale. 3 are 2 doors one is 4 door. The blue one is a GS. All but 1 have a motor and tranny. all are 350s. All have been sitting a while and likely locked up. The blue GS does have a manual transmission. Have titles for the 2 browns ones. Interiors are in rough shape. Plenty of parts to build one and have parts left over. The first one pictures is in the best shape. Pretty solid car overall. Located in central MN. Asking 1500 for the first brown one, 1000 for the blue GS and 500 for each for the other ones. The 2nd brown one does not have a motor or transmission. Dont want to part out yet.

 

Blue one is a 3/4 sp. w/base blue interior. Damn... If I didn't already have a basket case '70 350 4-sp.

 

Well yes, that would explain why I choose that picture to post, lol.

 

I didn't see that pic on FB but I'm not logged in - Maybe that shows more.

I'm still morbidly interested in it, lol. Never had a blue GS.

 

If this was close to me I would be all over this but being so far from me I can only watch and wait to see who the lucky buyer is.

 

Thanks Chris! I called the guy and made an offer on all of them, I guess I'll see what happens next? Larry.

 

At 3500 don't see how a man could go toooo wrong....$2500 I'd call a home run

 

First one looks like it could have those tough to find passenger side mirror

 

Any update Larry?

 

I just got off the phone with the seller and we made a deal. I'm heading up to Minn. this Friday to get the first car, (Blue GS stick car). This will be the first of four trips up there! It's only 11.5 hours one way and I can crash at my sister 's house in Richmond (one hour south of where the cars are.) My wife thinks I bought only one car, boy she's going to be pissed off when she finds out theirs 4 of them!! Larry.

 

Congrats Larry! I probably better avoid meeting your wife, I am sure she would hate me if she knew I found 5 of the cars you bought, lol.

 

Update! I brought the blue GS and the Skylark (brown with driveline) home just last night, 1500 miles round trip. I had a hitch assembly welded up on the back of my 18ft. bumper pull trailer and pulled a 'Tow Master' brand car dolly with the GS on the dolly. Everything worked great with no issues, I wish I would of thought about this idea years ago!! What a time saver! In a few weeks, I'll go back to MN. to get the other two cars. Larry.

 

Larry, please post a picture of your tow setup, with the cars loaded if you have one!

 

Will post some pictures later today.

 

I think I have too many of the same photo here, I'm trying to compress the files from a card from a Camara and something got messed up. Looks like a 4-speed trans in the trunk of the GS with a old Dodge hubcap. The guy I bought the cars from forgot to tell me a tree or something fell on the back of the GS, oh-boy , "what a mess". I call the 64 foot long set-up "The BUICK TRAIN" Larry.

 

Larry, glad you bought and secured these valuable cars and parts.

 

Rich, I thought for 2700 dollars it was a good buy for all four of these 1970 A-body's. Even though the blue GS is a goner (it's going to be parted out) the other 3 Skylarks have a lot of parts/potential left in them. Plus when the day comes for me to de-race my 70 STAGE I stripper car I'll have a vast assortment 70 only parts to choose from. Larry.

 

I agree Larry ,way to go.
