Vehicle Description
The Buick Skylark was introduced as a trim option in 1953 but
wasn't officially a model of its own until 1962. This is considered
the First Generation of Skylark, from 1964-1967.
Why This Car Is Special
This is a phenomenal example of a virtually unchanged Skylark. It
is as stock as they come and is incredibly clean and well cared
for.
Mechanical
A 300 cubic inch V8 engine replaced the all-aluminum 215 CID engine
of 1963. It was rated at 210 horsepower, which is plenty of power
for this drop top. The cast iron block was topped off with aluminum
heads and a 2-barrel carburetor and is dressed nicely with chrome
valve covers and air cleaner. It is backed by a Super Turbine 300
2-speed automatic transmission that shifts very smooth. Power
steering and power brakes make this Skylark a dream to drive, and a
very capable cruiser.
Interior
Two tone blue with bucket seats and a matching convertible boot
cover when the top is down. The interior is in great shape and very
comfortable. There are seat belts for your safety and the factory
AM radio in the dash. The convertible top is power, so you can have
the sun on your brow with the flip of a switch. The driver door
mirror is remotely controlled from inside the cab. The dash of this
Skylark is a work of art with all of the polished slats and fine
detail work, right down to the shifter knob.
Exterior
This car is a little slice of class in an elegant Blue with a white
convertible top. Buick hubcaps and skinny white walls really
compliment the car well. This Buick is adorned with just the right
amount of chrome and stainless. It shows well and looks classy, but
is not a "look at me" type of car with miles of chrome. The
convertible top boot fits perfectly and really pulls it all
together when the top is down.
Conclusion
We don't see Skylark convertibles very often, and this little
beauty won't last long.
