I thank the many of you who have responded!! I can say that these Buicks all need to be restored & for the most part many of them have not run in over 20 years,except for the '73 Estate Wagon. Some like the Wildcat GS Convertible I would say would probably be just a parts car although the owner did have asperations of restoring it also using parts from others such as the 4 door Wildcat along with the several hundred parts he had collected for them over the years. The '66 Skylark GS looks to be a numbers matching car. To me it is on the verge of weather it should be restored or used as a parts car, which is what he intended to do with the '66 Convertible to be cloned as a GS. The '73 Estate Wagon has run only a few years ago & would be the easiest to get up & going again. The '65 Riviera GS is a complete car that looks to be numbers matching.It is a Dual Quad with full power options. My intent is to offer these cars & parts for sale in a separete thread once I have them all together & have had a chance to look them over better in order to give someone an honest idea of what each car is. Again Thank You all who have responded & I hope this has answered most of your questions. If anyone would like to Email me with their Email address I will foward photos as soon as they are available. gsdoug@netzero.net Doug

Doug, You say you have 6-8 clutch set-ups? I am in dire need of the casted clutch piece in the 4speed clutch linkage, can you help me out? jkuchtiak@comcast.net 717-634-4001
Just to add to this, I contacted Doug and asked about a few things. He mentioned that most of the 4spd stuff is for earlier Nailheads, so most isn't applicable to later 401's/425's in the Larks and Rivs. I'd still shoot him an email (which is how I contacted him) with your specifc needs. And I just want to give Doug a positive plug. I bought a spare intake from him (to finally do Doc's mod) and he was awesome. Shipped the day after recieving payment too. He's a great guy :beer .
