1967 Skylark 61K original miles, unmolested California car, clean.

Description for Buick Skylark 1967

I know everybody has heard this before but I really will hate to see this car go. I fell into this car, and have really enjoyed it in the almost two years I have owned it. It is a real 61K original miles, California rust free car that has been unmolested, all the pollution control stuff is still on the car to include the original carburetor..

When I got the car somebody had done a few things to it, rebuilt the carburetor and new power steering box and lines. I had to go thru the front end and tighten everything up there (ball joints, tie rods, idler arm etc..) and get a good alignment, now it drives great and stops really, really nice. The exhaust is great and quiet, duels, I think its 2 inch but don’t hold me to it, whatever is factory I am thinking. The exhaust is pretty good size, but looks appropriate for the car whatever that would be. The Buck version of the glide transmission works great and gives good shits. Rubber gaskets everywhere around the car look good. Dash pad looks perfect. Wipers work, all the lights work, even the back up, lights. Oh, the one interior light is out in the passenger sail panel is out, if I get time I can get that working. The metal trim on this car looks really good, I would say far better than what you will find on your typical 1967 Skylark.

The car is really a great car and I enjoy the thing, I take this car on trips to car shows you have to drive a day to get to. This is a car you want to go places in. Here is a run down of the negatives, but keep in mind the car is overall really nice.

The A/C blows cold air but it blows cold air for 1967 which wasn’t that cold. I say it works good for 1967 air but maybe you can charge it up and do better with it but I wouldn’t bet on it.

If you corner left hard the left rear tire rubs the fender skirt slightly, I think with a little more air in the tires problem solved. Its not bad enough that I even did that. Doesn’t push on the skirt that I can really see, someday I keep meaning to worry over it, it just isn’t a big deal and I am pretty particular about my cars.

Oh, here is the top of the list. There is a Home Depot type water shut off valve in the heater hose. So I am going to assume the heater core is bad or the heater control valve is bad, I have never looked into it. But to be honest that is the one thing to really do to the car if your going to drive it in any kind of cool temperatures.

Windshield washer squirt-er pump doesn’t work. Its there and you can hear it run, the diaphragm is just busted.

The steering wheel shows a few cracks but its not overly objectionable.

The car shows no rust anywhere that I can see in the normal since, except when they did the repaint several years ago they must have overlooked a small issue around the back window that has started to bubble up. Its not real noticeable (see pictures) and has not changed in the almost two years I have owned the car but its there. It doesn’t look like the rear window has ever been out nor has any metal work been done in the area. I think the just didn’t treat the metal right during the repaint and it has started back. If the car says out of the weather I don’t foresee and real issue in the future. Either way I don’t think its a huge deal to address.

As you can tell I am all about spilling my guts, you bid on this car you wont be disappointed.

I have a pick up that is coming back from the body shop and I need the room, I am sorry to say that as much as I have enjoyed this trouble free car I have to get it out of here.
