1972 Buick Skylark
I am selling a really nice ORIGINAL UN-RESTORED SURVIVOR 1972 Buick Skylark sedan! This time capsule has only had 2 previous owners. and it has always been maintained and kept inside when not being used! Itis originally from Georgia,has neverbeen winter driven in salt and snow, and still looks great! Still has original body panels, floor boards etc., and is not scaly underneath. It hasbeen driven just under 34,000 careful miles since new in1972!ThisSkylark still wears its original paint, which is Bamboo Cream.Under the hood and in the trunk are also completely original; It even has the original bias ply spare tire! The interioris completely original and immaculate! No rips, tears, and dash is not cracked. The exterior paint has some minor imperfections, as you would expect, but still holds a nice shine and is very presentable, especially considering we are talking about a car that is nearly 50 years old! It is equipped with a 350/2bbl V8, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, COLD air conditioning, and AM radio.
Mechanically, this car is amazing! It is tight, smooth, quiet, and powerful. Engine runs strong, transmission shifts crisply, it rides and drives probably not much differently than it did in 1972! With the warm weather, I have been driving it quite regularly, including a100 mile trip a couple weeks ago with no issues at all! I have been averaging 18 to 19 MPG on regular 87 octane pump gas! Recent updates and maintenance have included: New tires, alternator, muffler, battery, water pump, cooling system flush, and antifreeze. I would not be afraid to drive this beauty anywhere! I also have the original paperwork for the car, including owner's manual, Protecto-Plate, and original bill of sale.
About me: I collect nice original Survivor cars, and have done so for many years. I am selling this one out of my collection to make room for a new addition. I live in upstate New York, about half way between Albany and Utica. I can be reached at the following number:
518 - 604 - 4133 (Landline)
Please note:If I don't answer, please leave a message. I will call you back ASAP. Also, NO TEXTS, CALLS ONLY! Neither of my phones will accept text messages.
NOW FOR THE RULES: PLEASE READ! VERY IMPORTANT!
1. Your bid is a binding contract! Please ask and get satisfactory answers to all questions, BEFORE you bid! Make sure your money is in place, and you have the approval of your significant other, mechanic, expert, etc. BEFORE you bid!
2. A NON REFUNDABLE partial payment in the amount of$500 is due through Pay Pal when you bid. Again, please make sure you intendto complete the deal BEFORE bidding.
3. New York State does NOT issue titles for motor vehicles manufactured 1972 model year and back. Instead, proof of ownership is a transferrable registration card that is signed over on the back to the new owner just like a title(just a smaller piece of paper). I have this paperworkin my personal name, and there are no liens.
4. Car and paperwork will not leave here until paid in full with collected funds. The best way to accomplish this is by bank wire transfer. It is safe, and there is a paper trail that protects both buyer and seller. Due to increasing fraud of money orders andbank checks, carand paperwork will not be released until these clear (as much as 10 business days). If you pick up car in person, you must bring cash, or previously have had payment clear my bank.
5. International buyers are welcome, but again, payment must be cleared before car or paperwork will be released to shipping agent. International bank wire transfer works best for this.
6. Car must be paid for in full within 7 days of successful bid. If final payment is not made within that time, I reserve the right to re-list car for sale, and your partial payment will be forfeited.
7. If you need extra time to have car picked up, that is fine. Car can stay here for reasonable time until you or your shipper can make arrangements. However, car must still be paid for within the 7 days outlined above. Also, make sure you have insurance arranged as I cannot and will not be responsible for damage or theft, acts of God, etc. beyond my control.
8. Please understand that car is sold at my premises. Transportation is your responsibility and your expense. I will do whatever I reasonably can to help you and/or your transporter, but it is still your responsibility.
9. Please call me at the following number with any questions or clarifications BEFORE you bid (CALLS ONLY, NO TEXTS):
518 - 604 - 4133 Landline
I am sorry for all the rules, but there have been quite a few non paying bidders on Ebay, and I want to be fair to all. It seems that 5% of difficult people seem to spoil things for the 95% who are great! Thanks for looking!
