1967 BUICK SKYLARK 400GS. This car will serve you as a show & shine, street racer, cruising car, and on the drag strip. It is branded 400GS, but it packs a lot more punch than that. When you get asked 'What's it got?' you can point to the badging and say 'Can't you read!' If you've got the attitude of course. This 'beast' sounds amazing while at idle and cruise speeds, and trust me you WILL turn heads even through other traffic noise. For a big block car the motor is very crisp and responsive and not lazy when it revs, I mean it sounds almost like a race car when you crack the throttle. SPECIFICS: 1967 body and chassis, with a custom '2” cowl hood scoop'. Redone interior is black carpet and cloth on bucket seats, and rear seat. Has center console with shifter. 455 Buick engine that has 400 heads that have had a lot of work to make it produce tremendous torque and were freshened up by SAT machine shop here last year.

The exhaust is very special with extra long 4" collector headers (also JetHot coated) to improve low end torque with 2 1/2" pipe all the way out the back to Flowmaster Delta 40 mufflers. When you smash the gas pedal the volume gets really nasty. You MUST HEAR this car to appreciate the attention to the motor and exhaust. Ignition is MSD-6 with rev limiter chip.
