It's not often that you get a car that has a drivetrain that is
completely numbers-matching, much less a car like this one! This
1972 Buick Skylark Convertible is highly accurate inside and out,
featuring the original engine and transmission! Propelled by a
numbers-matching 350 C.I. Buick V8 that breaths through a 4-barrel
carburetor, this '72 Skylark makes for one fantastic cruiser.
Torque is put to the pavement through the numbers-matching TH350
3-speed automatic transmission, which allows for smooth and easy
power delivery. The exterior is bathed in eye-catching bright red
paint, which replaced the original "Antique Gold" color some time
ago and is laid out over a straight body with excellent brightwork.
The undercarriage of this '72 Buick is rock-solid, and the floors,
frame, trunk and jambs are all in great shape. Opening the doors
reveals a highly-original "Saddle" vinyl interior with "tuck &
roll" patterned bench seats, which are very comfortable and perfect
for long-distance drives. This '72 Buick is fitted with plenty of
options, which include power steering, power brakes, front disc
brakes, a power tan convertible top, factory A/C, an original
dashboard, factory gauges and tachometer, dual chrome mirrors, a
remote driver's mirror, a vintage-style AM/FM digital radio, a new
"DUAL" speaker sound system, a tilt steering wheel, and some
sweet-sounding dual exhausts. The car rides on a set of Boss 18"
wheels over Dunlop blackwall tires for a stance that's begging to
get back out on the road. This '72 Skylark runs and drives like a
dream, and the convertible top allows for a great open-air driving
experience. It won't last long on our showroom floor, so don't let
it pass you by!
