1971 Buick Skylark Additional Info:
Originally California car. Like New restored Condition. Pristine Engine is a 455CID with Stage1 heads. Has Edelbrock Manifold. Has 750cfm four barrel Demon Carb. New Gas tank with drop in sump from RobbMc Performance 1/2" diameter. Full braided An line leading to upgraded TA performance Fuel Pump. MSD pro Distributor, MSD Digital 6AL ignitio, MSD coil, MSD plug wires. Hooker Tubular Headers with custom magnaflow exhaust for a DEEP growl. New Battery April 2023. Upgrade cooling system with 3" BeCOOL radiator and electronic dual spal fans that are on their own relays and temperature circuit. Car has new Alternator, power brake booster with front discs and rear drums. Rear is a rebuilt 3.73 POSI and the TH400 transmission was rebuilt 5 years ago with B&M shift kit for lightning fast shifts. Light Weight American Racing Wheels - !8" front and 20" rear, new tires with hotchkiss spriings. Recent suspension and steering rack tune up to make sure car is driving well. Cas has a very mean stance. Just added GS455 Body Decals on sides. Has GS on front grille, and rear with Skylark Buick badging as well. Runs and drives great. VERY fast and a blast to cruise slowly as well. Could certainly be used as a track/drag car. Overall the car is in great condition. Always stored in heated garage and never driven in ANY weather. SOME ISSUES: Does leak a few drops of oil from engine but never more than a few after it has been driven for a while and then parked. Does have a fiberglass hood with mock scoops but rest of the car is all original. Does not have windshield wipers or radio connection. No heater. Fuel gauge is 90% accurate meaning full is only about 90% on the gauge. THE car was "lightened" be the previous owner meaning many not needed things removed --- heater bow, radio components, wiper assembly, interior sound deadening so the car is light nimble and moves like a rocket. If is a driver quality car that drives and looks like a show car and is being sold at a great driver quality price.
