    My daily driver for two years,1975 Toronado. 455 front driver. Loved it! Sold it to buy my wifes Estate wagon. And the one that got away. My 1968 Cyclone GT. 302, top loader four speed (Stick conversion of course). Sold it when money got tighter than tight. Its the one I'd kill to have back:ball: :ball:

    My first Wildcat. my 1969 four door. Engine blew six months before I left the army. Rebuilt just in time to make it home. 1300 mile trip with only a starter failure. (Special thanks to the GSCA for getting me home). The other is my old 72 Skylark. Neat car, but proven to be nearly worthless. I will NEVER own or invest in another Skylark again EVER, unless its a factory GS.

    Mike,

    Thats not meant to be a flame on all Skylarks. Yours is sweet! I just really thought I had something there with excellent floors, trunk, and core support. But when I had to sell I practically had to give it away:mad: It just soured my taste for them. I hope I never have to sell my Regal. I bet I have the some reality check if I do.

    Dan,

    I was just yanking yer chain, I didn't take it as a flame. But I do like Skylarks. :grin: I do think a 350 4 speed Regal has to be a blast to drive though. :TU:
