Vehicle Detail

1970 Buick Skylark Custom convertible. Parents bought car new in ’69 at Turner Buick in Hayward, CA. changed hands a couple times and they bought it back in the mid 90’s. Originally white with black top and interior. 2nd owner painted it red. Front original bodywork was wrecked but no frame damage. I have all the new stuff needed to fix the body, inner & outer fenders, front bumper, grill (decent condition) and a hood. Car was originally a 350/AT car but 2nd owner converted it to a 455/AT from a ’72 wagon. Ran very well when we had to stop driving it, has new cam and lifters. Needs to be gone through as its been sitting for a while. Top is in good condition but needs to be cleaned up. Power drum brakes, stops pretty good. I have new Fel-Pro Engine gasket set and an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold. All the body panels are good and I have all the shims and installation hardware. Little to no rust, worst is some thicker surface rust in trunk (see photo). Selling this only because don’t have the money to restore it. This car is rare so I’m not giving it away. Could be driven with a few things being done, like being cleaned up and having the sheet metal reinstalled. The car will need to be towed and the front end sheet metal will need to be hauled away as well as it is obviously not installed currently. Mileage shows 42,363. My understanding is that is that the car total since day one is more likely 142,363mi. The 455 engine was freshened up when it was installed. This engine ans transmission have about 10k-12k miles on it. If there is something specific you want to see pictures of, or other questions that are not answered here let me know and message me.
