I will post additional pictures of interior, engine & trunk this weekend. I need to navigate a new / modern computer at home. This car and the color combination is "stunning" to me and other Buick collectors. Maybe someone on here knows how many were produced with the Burgundy Mist with white vinyl top and interior? There cannot be many from production and even fewer still remaining. This is a 1970 Skylark(not a GS ). I personally do not "clone" cars, especially Buicks but it would be an attractive car with GS hood and road wheels on it. I have these parts but this car should remain original until the new owner makes his / her decision. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
4 inches of snow this weekend. (sigh) ! Pictures as requested later this week. Supposed to be near 65 tomm. & Tuesday. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Additional pictures of my Burgundy Mist. I am still adapting to this new compter and it's programs. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan
In the third picture (with the trunk open) I found a Montgomery Wards(remember them) air filter and wiper blades still in the original boxes. The picture with the cat in the trunk is the queen mouser. 15 vehicles, boats and motocycles stored for Winter and she eliminates any / all rodent problems inside the barn.

Yes, That is a compass in pic # 1 on post 45. I am "guessing" dealer installed not factory installed. Some sharp eyes here on this board. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Here's one that is long gone. Strange options for a Stage 1. Standard interior with power windows and disc brakes. Circa 1988.
How's the headliner? Is a radio included? Any rust or major rust issues that are not pictured. Where in Michigan? I'd like to figure mileage. Allen Mandeen in Kansas.
Happy 2011 ! The Burgundy Mist car is still available @ $6500.00, The parts car has been sold to a boardmember here. The 1967 Camaro is going to Wisconsin next month, the new owner is an associate of again, another board member here. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
I am going to list the Burundy Mist on evil bay next month. Someone is going to get a nice original, unmolested 70 Skylark in a rare color. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Listed on E-bay with 48 hours to go. Lots of lookers and bids but still too low to let it go. PM me if someone wants a nice 70 Skylark with a great color combination! I would prefer to sell to a board menber here. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Do you realize that your auction on eBay is a NO RESERVE AUCTION ???? you may need to pull this auction and re list it with a reserve so you don't have a problem if it does not get bid up to the price you want.
Ryan, Thanks. I "missed" the no reserve part after I revised the ad. I believe that I have 24 hours prior to the auction end to pull the ad. Then I will revise it with a reserve price. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Back on E-bay. Auction ends this Sunday night @ 2000 EST. My reserve is $114.99 over the re-pop window sticker's MSRP. If someone will post the link, I appreciate it. Any guesses to the window sticker's price? Somebody is going to end up with a nice, original 1970 Skylark. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
