Aaron65 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Here are my girls...I've had the '53 for a little over a year, and it has new valves and lifters, a rebuilt carb, straightened intake and exhaust manifolds, new heat riser, rebuilt master cylinder (it had never been apart), boiled radiator, new this and that that has added up to $! But it's pretty much my dream car so it's worth it. It needs paint and front shocks...the front shocks are coming this winter, the paint won't happen for a few years at least, til my '65 Mustang gets done getting redone (and I haven't even taken it apart yet, but I have a bunch of new sheetmetal in my basement). The '65 Skylark I've had for 3 and a half years...It's a great car! Another car I've always liked and found a great deal on. Like everything else I own it could use paint, as it has chips and lacquer checking. But it's a factory 300 4 barrel and still only has 88,000 miles, after I've put 17,000 on! I love the two tone with the white roof, plus it's my favorite color on a car--dark blue. It's just how I'd have ordered it, except I'd like a 4 speed! Hope you all like em!

The Old Guy Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Aaron, it looks like you took the picture of the 53 at the "Goldeb Memories" show at the Sloan museum. I looked your Buick over, and had a little chat with you as I was leaving. Your 65 looks like a nice ride too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron65 Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 Thank you all for the nice comments! Old Guy, haven't forgot talking to you...I'll let you know when I get around to pulling a front shock--hopefully you have a few sitting around!
