1971 Buick Other

This is an auction for a 1971 Buick Skylark, an amazing example of the true muscle car made in the absolute height of the muscle car era. The 1971 Buick skylark shares a body with theChevy Chevelle, Olds Cutlass, Pontiac GTO and first gen Monte Carlo (also known as A-bodies) . It’s a big block V8 454 with Posi track and working A/C and is recently painted in "Viper Red". The value of these Muscle cars continues to soar over the last 10 years. Get yours now before it's gone!

The clear title is in my name and in my possession. I have owned this car since 2011 and It is time to let somone else enjoy it. This Skylark starts, runs, drives and stops with great response with many new parts and upgrades The Interior has ALL NEW seats and brand new matching rear upholstery, headliner and brand new factory style two-piece correct carpet.

This is a Powerful muscle car built for low-end torque and maximum, naturally aspirated horsepower!! This Buick Skylark is well built from the factory with 4 link rear suspension, 10 bolt rear end with bolt-on rear axles and 4-link suspension . The transmission is now a fully rebuilt and upgraded 700r4 automatic with overdrive for comfortable highway speeds and a lockup torque converter for better fuel mileage (other 1970s cars do not have overdrive from the factory). The trans also has stronger, Upgraded sun-gear and corvette valves for fast and tight shifting. It also has a new torque converter and ratchet style B&M shifter as well as a custom new reinforced drive shaft built by Fort worth Gear and Axle. The new motor build shows excellent oil pressure and never gets hot here in Texas (aluminum radiator and dual electric fans)

The Skylark has a new high output alternator so thecharging system works and keeps the battery charged. It has working headlights, and wipers with wiper park. The turn signals and hazards work. The brake lights and dim/bright lights work. The car has a horn that works like it should by pushing the horn button. The Skylark also comes with performance tires that are in excellent condition with less than 200 miles on them in a beefy 285/45ZR /19 rear tires and 245/45ZR 18 front tires Z rated for over 140mph . The wheels are FORGED C6 Corvette wheels off a 2011 Z06 Corvette. Forged wheels are stronger and lighter than cast wheels. The wheels look amazing and have zero to little curb rash. (see pics) This car has the highly desirable, Factory A/C option with new Sanden style R134a upgrade that blows cold air!!

The brakes are super responsive with brand new master cylinder, new rotors, soft lines cylinders, calipers and rear shoes.

I also have a cold-start and drive video available upon request for serious bidders on youtube.

This is not a show car it has some imperfections in the paint, possible blemishes, may need final tuning to get it to the way you like it runs off a carburetor and has a cam. The car is 53 years old and is sold "as-is, no warranty", it will not handle like a new Honda or Toyota. I have driven it daily and it was tagged and inspected from 2018 until December 2023 and was street legal and passed safety inspections with seat belts front and rear. It has great power and the brakes are super responsive. it always gets attention whenever I have it out. The $500 non-refundable deposit is due upon purchase and full payment is due within one week. I prefer Chase Zelle for deposit and a Chase “bank to bank” transfer for the final payment. Please do not ask questions that are answered in the ad. What you see in the pictures is what you get.

Buyer pays all shipping costs and any costs associated with Bank-transfers, paypal etc.
