Here is a shot of them

That all being said, fine low mileage well equipped examples are actually doing rather well in the market, I have followed them closely and there have a few that have sold in the past 2 years in the $20K range, one I know of broke the $20K mark, these were sold, not asking

I recently passed on one on CL for $400

As mentioned, there are a lot of brands that are no longer putting the spelled out names on their cars but only the logo. If you read a lot of articles online, Buck is actually referred to as GM's quiet success. There is not one car/suv in the Buick lineup now that needs any excuses made for it, they are all strong contenders in their perspective class. I was disappointed to see the new LaCrosse axed as it is a true joy to be in. One of the jewels of the Buick lineup that needs to be pushed hard by GM so people know it's even available is the Tour X, a fantastic vehicle with great reviews. Buick has also been very strong the last decade in the J D Power's and other rankings

Interesting list, but a quick Google search for 1954 Skylark pictures where you get dozens of different Skylarks pictured tells a very different story

They consider that pre-war since production stopped after the 1942's, 1946 would be post war and of course there is room for argument there since the war had already started

What the difference between a 91 and a 91F?

Buick did not offer skirts on 57 Buicks. There were many companies that provided them aftermarket. I would not call it "Demand" for these but wouldn't doubt someone would buy them. Probably worth $100 to the right person.

Even convertibles of the 70!s such as a 76 LeSabre has no insulating qualities in the convertible tops

Got this reply from the seller Hello Sir, I am hoping someone can help me with what is going on with this car. I bought it from the original owners daughter. Her father bought it new April 30 1969 local. I was told he special ordered it. The vin on the engine matches the vin on the car original engine for sure. What I found most interesting about it is the 1970 amber marker light on both front fenders 1970 light only. Car has the clear marker light near the top as all 1969 225 have. 1970 amber light below it. Never seen before and all lights work as they should. Also has the clear marker light in the bottom of the fender as some 69 and 70 have. The father died last year and the family can not answer my questions. Google 69 225 and see if you can fine one with all 3 lights in both front fenders. I can not. It's a early 69 again sold new April 30 1969 with all paper work. Car is new condition every were. What every it may be pro o type or not. Well worth the money when seen in person. Feel free to call me 540-672-7907 with any other questions or let me know if you can explain this car. The father loved this car and did everything he could to keep it like new. I wish I knew what he knew about it. When i seen it I had to have it. It's that nice. Thank you,

92,95 & 96

Did anyone notice the added name badge on the front passenger door? Not sure what it says

Looks like that light blue was put on with a roller or brush

I have found that if you hold the ezpass right against the windshield, they will scan. Never had one not work driving the Roadmaster

The CTS was supposed to translate to Cadillac Touring Sedan

There was no factory continental kit on any Buick, there were lots of aftermarket kits available thought

Plus it's a Limited

It looks like a beauty but questions sure need to be answered. The parking lights/reflectors on the front fender is disappointing as well, but that was not an uncommon thing for people to do in that era.

I understand your point but in 54 Skylarks unlike 53 Skylarks, white and red were not as popular as you might think, just do a quick google search and that will be seen, the greens& blues were very popular as well as black. There were so many great colors in 54 it would have been a tough choice. Here would be a combination high on my list that really accentuates the 54 Skylark.

Lido green is a great color, what were they thinking????? How devalue a valuable car in one redo

I agree Al that the color is off in the pictures, not sure if the color is actually off or if it's the doctored pictures. I agree red interior would help it look much better, but Casino Beige has always been in my eyes an awful color in the Buick lineup for time in history, there were so many beautiful and exciting colors in the Buick lineup in 54, I guess they had to have one for people that wanted there car to always look like it just drove through a dust storm. Have seen a very well restored Roadmaster convertibles and a Century wagon and a Special sedan in that color, also a Super coupe that needed some restoration work not long ago, they all just leave me flat.

There is money to be made on this one, make an offer, buy it, detail it, and then market it aggressively and properly. Contrary to a few opinions on here, the right Reatta's can bring substantial money. That has been proven on several sells over the past few years. There are 3 different markets for the Reatta, the beater drivers, the enjoy a fun convertible, and the collector/show cars. Each has a very distinct pricing. This Reatta could easily be in the collector show group.

It's the modern age, pictures are easy to take and post and will make a world of difference. Seriously, less is not more when it comes to selling cars

I don't know of a 180 thousand mile Reatta that is selling for $3000, you can buy nice ones for that amount with half the miles

When was the last time you saw a 54 Skylark in Casino Beige.? Has to be one of the least attractive Skylarks ever produced. https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/af19/auburn-fall/lots/r0124-1954-buick-skylark-convertible/795333?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=AF19&fbclid=IwAR3l0XZCatLDkrer7LoyExxOx2vpVRa2jAoPLTBg7Y9ceiafwDPq1Xb3Mn0
