Oh Wow, New to me and I love GMs 1961-62 4 speed muscle but I’ve never seen a Buick from that era.....very cool!
I bet that thing moves out good,..i had a 300 in a 64 and that little engine was peppy,..can you post an idle vid?,..i would love to hear it with that solid 232 cam and the compression!
I bet it is quick plus pretty lightweight w/alum heads intake. My HS GF had a '66 convertible w/a 300 2BBL & it moved pretty well. This would be a super fun car to own/drive/show.
I've been without a Buick for exactly 3 years now. This is the first time since I sold my '69 that I can't quit thinking about one. This one. A youtube type video of the engine running (with exhaust) and/or a test drive would certainly be a welcome addition to your advertisement. Somebody step up and buy this PLEASE Anybody seen Ted???
This is my first attempt at posting on You tube...Volume sucks--Turn up you speakers to full blast! Idle video from cell phone over you tube..Had to keep short due to size limits for posting. You can get an idea of the cam..... This Car is the one of nicest 64's around with Factory 4Speed!
Not to hijack a thread (if anyone wants this deleted, I gladly will) but this a picture of my first car (1973 Gran Sport 455 Stage 1) with my brother's first car (1964 Skylark 300) in the back ground. Probably circa early spring 1984. His Skylark later became affectionately known as the "Creamsicle".
Very Very Nice 64 Skylark. I have viewed a number of 64 Buick's over the years and I'll say this is one of the nicest I have seen. Good luck with the sale!
