Hey guys, looking to buy a 70-72 Skylark or GS convertible. Don't want a trailer queen, but would definately like more than a basic "driver". Exterior color not a real issue, but would definately prefer black interior (at minimum a black dash/carpet combo). Originality also not a huge concern, unless were talking big GS money but its non numbers matching, know what I mean? Thanks! bmscanlon@hotmail.com
I have a 72 Skylark org. w/black bench seat interior. 455 motor, rebuilt th350 tranny w/fairbanks shift kit, 650 holley, 4 core radiator, 2 1/2 flowmaster exhaust, 3:90 posi rear end. Hei conversion new cap rotor wires and plugs, new water pump and altenator. The motor has a small main bearing knock on first start up. The lowers on both fenders are rotted away dew to leaves and dirt lying in them over the years. I do have a driverside fender that will go with the car. The quaters aren't perfect on the lower sections of them, but they are repairible. The car is born and raised in Wisconsin up till last year when it was moved to Ohio It has 85,266 miles on it. I will take $2800 for it. Let me know if this might be something up your alley! Thanx Mike

71 GS350 Convertible A few corrections from Tom's Email. I've owned the car since 1990. It has 104K miles. There is some surface rust in the trunk. Options - Power Drum Brakes, A/C, Speed alert, Tach - does not work, aftermarket AM/FM cassette deck, but I do have an original Buick AM radio. I also have a brand new pair of the ram air foam seals. I've attached 5 pictures. I have more pictures with better quality available. Tom has maintained the car since around 1994 - oil changes, filters, lube.
