    Hello all!

    New here. I've been a muscle car fan my entire life, and I really am digging the 65-67 Skylarks and GS's as of late. I would love to get one, but really would like to ride in one before I pull the trigger. Anyone on this forum live in Utah? I'd love to check out your ride if you do!

    Thanks in advance!

    while similar, you would need to ride in a 65 and then a 66 or 67 as 66 & 7 differ from the 65's. If you are looking at Skylarks there will not be much difference in driving a 66 or 67 but you have a major driveline difference between 66 & 67 in the GS's

    Thanks, My3Buicks. I figured as much, right now I'm so torn between the two I'll happily jump into whichever I can try. I've seen some decent deals on 65's as of late, but truthfully a 66' would fit the bill perfectly. Also not really sure if I want a nailhead or one of other Buick big blocks. I hear a 430 is hard to beat for real-world driving. I really just want something that is decent, but not so nice I'll be scared to drive it, or make it a bit modern/to my liking. My ideal car is going to get an OD transmission, as well as disc brakes. Other than that I just want to enjoy a vintage ride for a while. And call me crazy, but I'll take a bench seat and column shifter any day! haha.

    Thanks again guys, appreciate it.
