    I was at Home Depot today when I came back to my car ther was a note stuck in the door the guy sad he had a 70 skylark for sale 2 door 350-4, said it had a nice body runs good. I called the guy going to look at it tomorrow. I'll let you know if I get it or I'll pass it on to the forumn. I told him I got laid off last week he said he would work something out he wanted it to go to someone who would take care of it.:cool:

    don't tell my wife!

    Well, I went to see it this morning. not bad it is 70 skylark custom, brown with a brown vinyl top with dark sadde or burnished saddle interior. Well it has good quarters, floor pans, the trunk has normal rust over the rear wheel well hump. front fenders have the holes in the bottoms, core support isn't as bad as I thought it would be. good front bumper, rear bumper has dent with a broken tail light, comes with 72 bumper he bought to replace it with (sell that), It has a 72 350-4 he just had put in sounds good rebuilt carb, all new mounts, tune up, dual exhaust etc.
    it comes with the 70 motor also a 350-4 that he had had rebuilt but only lasted 2500 miles due to faulty machine work! (crank bearing).:af: he was not happy!

    he has over a $1000 worth of receipts where suspension and brake work where done. all new ball joints, bushings, tie rods, centerlink, shocks, all new drums, I drove it about 5 miles it rides like a new car!

    I can't pass up a buick!
    addicted!:laugh:
    I'll have to tell the wife it was a parts car I have over 10 parts cars and a about ten apart in my brother-in-law's barn.

    There are 3 prices a man pays.
    1. The price he paid.
    2. The price he tells his wife he paid.
    3. the price he pays when she finds out what he paid.
