This is an amazing example of the true muscle car era. A 1971 Buick skylark which shares a body with the Chevy Chevelle, Olds Cutlass, Pontiac GTO and first gen Monte Carlo . It’s a big blockV8 with Posi track and working A/C and is recently painted in factory color "Viper Red". The value of these Muscle cars continues to soar over the last 10 years. Get yours now before it's gone!
The clear title is in my name and in my possession. This Skylark starts right up, runs, drives and stops with great response with many new parts and upgrades The Interior has ALL NEW racing seats and brand new matching rear upholstery, headliner and brand new factory style two-piece correct carpet.
This is a Powerful muscle car built for low-end torque and maximum, naturally aspirated horsepower!! The truck is well built from the factory with 4 link rear suspension, 10 bolt rear end with bolt-on rear axles . The transmission is now a fully rebuilt and upgraded 700r4 automatic with overdrive for comfortable highway speeds. Upgraded sun-gear and corvette valves for fast and tight shifting. It also has a new torque converter and ratchet style B&M shifter as well as a custom new reinforced drive shaft. New motor build shows excellent oil pressure and never gets hot here in Texas (aluminum radiator and dual fans)
The Car has a new high output alternator so the charging system works and keeps the battery charged. It has working headlights, and wipers with wiper park. The turn signals and hazards work. The brake lights and dim/bright lights work. The car has a horn that works like it should by pushing the horn button. The Skylark also comes with performance tires that are in excellent condition with less than 200 miles on them in a beefy 285/45ZR /19 rear tires and 245/45ZR 18 front tires Z rated for over 140mph . The wheels are FORGED C6 Corvette wheels off a 2011 Z06 Corvette. Forged wheels are stronger and lighter than cast wheels. The wheels look amazing and have zero to little curb rash. (see pics) This car has the highly desirable, Factory A/C option with new Sanden style R134a upgrade that blows cold air!!

This is not a show car it has some imperfections in the paint, possible blemishes, may need final tuning to get it to the way you like it. The car is 53 years old and is sold "as-is, no warranty", it will not handle like a new Honda or Toyota. I have driven it daily and it was tagged and inspected from 2018 until 2023 and was street legal and passed safety inspections with seat belts front and rear. It has great power and the brakes are super responsive. it always gets attention whenever I have it out. The $500 non-refundable deposit is due upon purchase and full payment is due within one week. I prefer Chase Zelle for deposit and a Chase “bank to bank” transfer for the final payment. Please do not ask questions that are answered in the ad. What you see in the pictures is what you get.
