Wow, there are a lot of things I like about that car. The interior? Not so much.

Thanks for sharing.

 

Not really a big fan of the purple vinyl roof, trunklid liner and the interior.
Big bonus point is that at least it's still powered by a Buick small block.

Let's post the pics before it's sold:

Selling my Buick skylark.. everything on this car is immaculate.. open to trades

 

Strip the paint (and vinyl roof) to the metal,gut the entire interior,shovel everything out of the trunk,scrap the wheels,and install a 455 and I’d be a playuh on that piece!

 

Thx. for posting the pics. I'd noticed & meant to give kudos to it still being Buick powered. Regardless of whether or not it's one's cup of tea per se it does look to be well done.

 

I think it's the color and stripes, first thing that comes to mind when I see it from the rear is Chevelle...

 

Agree. White GSX stripes & maybe even a rear wing would've looked much better IMHO and kept with the keepin' it all Buick theme.

 

Now, I need a prescription to reverse that which has already been seen.

 

See everybody says "it's your car, do what you want." This is what happens! Someone should have raised their hand at some point and said "No, purple carpet and a hokey purple console are a bad idea: give it some air." This may have been prevented.

 

I love it, it loves me...

 

And when I punch it, I feel like

 

I just puked in my mouth

 

Two ethnic for me to use the kindest words I could summon

 

The damn chevelle stripes are the worst part.

 

Of all the cars I’ve seen for sale on this board, this car is certainly one of ‘em.

 

I bet the owner is told all the time " Hey, Nice Chevelle"

 

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

 

Best response is 'NO RESPONSE'!

 

Looks like a lot of money spent and quality work but man there is a small market for the color choices. Not my style personally

 

I'm all for "it's your car, do what you want", but if you get extreme you better either want to keep it forever or realize going in that it is going to be a white, or in this case purple, elephant. you want to come anywhere close to recouping your money, don't do that.

Not that keeping a car stock is profitable either.
