For Sale: 1964 Buick Skylark in Lavergne, Tennessee

A classic Buick is about buying style and power. That's why it's great to see this 1964 Buick Skylark Convertible with a proper V8, four-on-the-floor, a well-coordinated color combo, and even a terrific stereo upgrade. It means this drop-top continues the tradition of a great cruiser, and it delivers it all for an affordable price.

This was the first year the Skylark was its own independent model, and this example highlights exactly why the legend took flight. The factory-correct Diplomat Blue was given a quality respray, and so the deep color knows how to radiate in the sunshine. And this good gloss also helps to highlight the well-creased body lines. Plus, you have that added sophistication you want in a Buick. You see this on the sides with the custom pinstripe. It's a two-tone where the white coordinates with the good-looking convertible top, and the lighter blue is a stylish choice for those who like subtle elegance. There's gleaming brightwork in all the right places, including the grille and form-hugging bumpers. And we love the look of the full-length trim that has a cool silver insert and Buick's iconic portholes. It's all riding on a set of 17-inch Ridler alloys to let you know that this classic is also a true cruiser.

With the flip of a switch, the top powers down to reveal that the blue and white color theme continues inside. The condition of the seats, carpet, door panels, and upholstery show the kind of investment where you'll happily leave the roof down just so others can get a longer look inside. We like how this one thoughtfully integrates its upgrades. You see in the AutoMeter auxiliary readouts in the dash, and while the classic AM radio is on display, an AM/FM/CD unit with hands-free Bluetooth is mounted underneath. And they not only upgraded the head unit, but also the trunk is home to a custom setup that includes speakers, subwoofers, and an amplifier. Plus, front bucket seats, a Hurst floor shifter, and a Buick sports steering wheel mean this is a driver's classic.

Not only was this the debut year for the new Skylark, but this was also the debut of the new 300 cubic-inch V8. This is a year-correct block, and it's even believed to be the original powerhouse. It has the tidy style of good maintenance, and it's even topped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. It makes for a solid power package that feels confident out on the road, especially with the control of the smooth-shifting four-speed manual transmission. This rides like a true classic cruiser, but that also features power steering and modern tires that help make sure this drop-top is one you'll happily take out on every sunny day.

Complete with owner's manual, this is a significant-year Buick that has been invested in for cool colors and overall driving appeal. So don't miss out on an awesome classic convertible offered at an awesome price Call today!!!
