I've got a 1968 GS400 convertible. Green with a green top and tan seats. PS, PB, PW, power seat, power top, and A/C when it actually works (I've had to replace the climate control unit twice so far). Great first car. Wish I had more time to get it fixed up all nice.
My 71 GS 455 owned it for almost 29 years. Both Cole and Chris have stories to tell about riding in this car......:grin:

I just joined the board after buying a 1968 Skylark Custom last Wednesday. The car has been sitting in a barn since 1987. I just tried the top this afternoon after putting in a fresh battery - it operated just fine. It desparately needs a new top, but at least the mechanicals work. I suspect the fluid should be changed, but haven't found a repair manual as yet to walk me though the process. 350-2, AT, PS, red with black top, minor rust issues, no damage
I've got a number matching '73 Centurion 455-4 convertible That i am trying to restore in its former glory when I'm not driving it and have some :dollar: left to spend on it At the moment i pour all my :dollar: in the gas tank o No: Gas is expensive in this part of the world Check my " garage " for pics and the VIN
I got one! 69' Electra . It has been in the family since 1971. I was driving up thru labor day of this year. I am now in a full restroration , I just wanted to paint it. HERE WE GO! This link is what she use to look like! ou: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3qx5LPNMh4
I see I was supposed to post a pic too? Not really at a point where the car looks great- except for those of us who love to see a treasure uncovered. Here she is as I pulled her from the barn after 23 years of slack time.
Well i go and pick my 67 skylark vert up friday,, kinda building my post's up so i can post the pics soon... it wont be long..
I've had this 66 Electra for three years now, and finally got it to the point where I can trust it to go cross country. Before it I had a 1967 Wildcat Custom convertible. I ran it for 12 years. Nothing like taking a convertible throught the Rockies; the scenery is fantastic!
Just got my 64 skylark last week. I'm really excited about tearing into her. BTW, I'm around central Ohio.
Just got one, 70 GS455, my 1st convertible & Buick. Numbers matching, rust free, little beat up, but a great driver. Having a convertible is a whole new driving experience, love it!
