I am listing this for my uncle. My dad was going to buy it and restore it for my mother, but time, money and space are issues now and it has to go. frown Hopefully to a good home to someone that can restore her.

1962 Buick Skylark 2dr hardtop (no post) that needs total restoration. Originally a 215 V8 car with 2-speed automatic. Padded dash, clock, etc. No engine or transmission now (PO removed for a convertible), but was carefully removed. ALL original wiring is there and not tampered with in anyway. Has some rust as you can see from setting. Car even still has the original hubcaps.

I wanted to trade the car for a 1973-78 Ford Country Squire or 1971-73 Buick Estate Wagon and then just buy it from him and trade it off, but he needs to sell it, or its going to completely ruin, so will also sell for cash.

Bring your trailer / rollback and $1000. and its yours. Car is located in extreme northeast Tennessee.


These photos were taken in early February, but its basically in the same condition. More photos upon request.

Just a note... if this car is not sold soon, it will likely be stripped and crushed like a pancake.

I know its rough, but these are neat and rare little cars and this one is a restorable edition. He thinks its at least worth $800.

If anyone is interested, or know of anyone, please let them know. I would hate to see this car under the jaws of a crusher.

I put it on local Craigslists and there is a few interested in it, so it may not last... thought I would try it here again at a lower price.

Good luck with it. I'd be interested to get one of these some day to complement my Special convertible...money and space are the current issues.

Thanks... well the car is still here... not advertised it much at all. There are a couple of guys interested in it. I would like to see it go to a Buick fan and someone that will restore it.

He may even take $700 for it, or if someone has a 1971-73 Buick Estate Wagon, 1972-73 Buick Electra 4dr or 1973-78 Country Squire wagon they would like to trade for it, I would trade and pay my uncle for the car. smile
