    72lark350 GOING FAST WITH CLASS

    Hello all! About a year ago, I finally made it to a point where I could begin seriously looking for another Buick to cruise around in. I was pretty active on the board back around 2008-09 when i was driving my Dad and I's 72 Skylark. Sold the car to get a car good on gas to drive back and forth to college. Anyways, fast forward to now. A lot of life changes since then. Been in the USAF for 3 years, have a house and my wife and I now have a 2 month old :) A board member reached out to me that he had a car he'd sell and I drove up to Kentucky at the end of January to pick up a 72 Skylark custom. Some may recognize the car, as he had it at the Nationals last year. Just so happened that it is the same color combo as the previous 72, red with a black vinyl. Previous car had a 3/4 vinyl and this one a halo top.
    It's been a long time coming, constantly scouring craigslist. Special thanks to Curtis Stanley and Chris Pollak (dont really remember how to tag people on here :Comp:) for helping me with the search. They were a great help finding me leads and giving me advice on different cars. Also to Mark Lob because in December he went to look at Suncoupe that was local to him for me. He gave me an accurate description and I ended up flying out there, but it wasn't what I was looking for and figured I would wait for a better deal. Then this car came to me :TU:

    Here she is! Snowy picture was from KY, now shes home in sunny FL
