Are you sure they came in silver? When I collected promos I had one in Shadow Turquoise and another in Astro Blue, and had seen a tan one on Ebay. I never saw one in silver.
.. Hey Jeff...is that the mexicali mud lark? lol and yes the did make a silver mist promo in 1966....
I've asked a friend of mine who's pretty well connected in the promo world if he knows of one for sale. I assume you want one mint in the original box. I'll let you know if he comes up with anything.
.. \ No ..Buick never made a 65 skylark GS in a promo....1966 was the only year they made a promo in skylark gran sport
No luck on the `66 Skylark promo in Silver Mist. If people have them, they're holding onto them. Are you collecting `66 Skylark promos or are looking to match your car? The Mexically Mudlark kit, which is an unpainted, unassembled promo shows up ebay from time to time, as does the annual kit. They'd need assembly and paint, but could be the easiest way to match your car, if that's what you are trying to do. Have you tried Jerry Goldsmith? He advertises every month in Hemmings: PROMOS, all Corvettes 1953 to present; also 1956 and up Impalas, Corvairs, Camaros, GTOs, Firebirds and others, large inventory which changes daily, send SASE for current lists; Visa, MC; we buy promos, any amount. Jerry Goldsmith, 4634 Cleveland Heights, Lakeland, FL 33813, PH: 863-644-2437, 863-646-8490, FAX: 863-644-5013; email: shirley.goldsmith@gte.net**16-YR** He might have what you want. Anyway, I'll keep my eyes and ears open for a Silver Mist promo.
At the time of your post, I wasn't aware of a model called the "mexicali mud lark" so nothing really registered with me until the recent post earlier today. The one I posted is actually a metal battery operated bump and go car. Jeff
Yeah I am collecting them... not intereted in the amt kits or the craftsman..I have those...silver mist seems to be the hard one to find...I missed on on ebay a year ago...I hate when that happends.. Jimmy
