1971 Buick Skylark convertible, 350hp short block, 110k miles. Runs great. Beautiful cinnamon color. Needs some brake work. Has rust issues, thus the low price. Great car if willing to work on it.

 

That's the kinda ride I've been scouting around to score for my son.

My daughter would kill me...

 

I know if it was mine, Id fix the brakes and want/get a lot more for it than 1500.00.

 

time for a road trip

 

If you look closely it almost looks like a 70's era post card with that hairdo.

 

I didn't know a "short block" could run great. :spank: :laugh:

 

I guess wishful thinking isn't winning here, but that's Jackson, Michigan andnot Jackson, Mississippi...

 

I grew up in Jackson Michigan. I dont remember to many cars that age that wernt ate up with rust. I may be going up that way in a few weeks. Could look at it if its still available.

 

if its still available in a couple of weeks, probably not worth looking at, lol:laugh:

 

I contacted the guy. He said the frame was rusted but didnt know how bad. If its not sold this weekend He will take some pics for me.
