    I purchased a 71 Skylark 2 door post coupe of Ebay for $4200 a couple months ago. Looking at all the member cars in the gallery I noticed that no one else has a 2 door post coupe. This has me wondering, either this car is a rare find or there is something wrong with this model and that is why no one wants to touch them. I haven't put any additional money into this car and before I do I wanted to get honest opinions from the people who know Buicks better than I do. I'll post some pictures tomorrow, but initial thoughts would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Is your Skylark red with dog dish hubcaps? If so, that is one sweet car!

    Cool Find

    The post cars I believe make the best race car platforms.
    I'd love to find a nice post car, they're a little different than the norm.

    I have a set of quarter windows for a post car, & the stainless is pretty nice.
    If your's is in need of a good set let me know.

    There's a few around, check my avatar, the body itself would have to be more rigid than a hardtop but not as desireable. If you need interior stuff you'll probably have to buy new/repo cause door panels are different than hardtops. They're great cars and may even be lighter than the hardtops.

    Thanks for the offer. I might be contacting you later after the engine, carpet, seats, all the rubber and drum brakes get replaced.

    Crap. What have i gotten myself into. :shock:
