  1. Just an off the wall suggestion but is your fan close to the radiator? If it’s too far away, that could be an issue.
  2. Here’s one of my brother and me taken in 1969 in my 1965 Buick Skylark convertible. Judging by our clothes we were likely heading to church…or at least that’s where we told our folks where we were heading.
  3. I actually got to drive my ‘65 Skylark Convertible off the flatbed and into my garage after she resided in the paint shop for 6 weeks. Now where did I put all those parts I took off? 😳
  4. In the section Cars and Partss For Sale, ads used to be separated in “Not Mine” and by owner. Now all of a sudden there is a big overlap of the 2 sections. Why is this?
  5. Sorry, Bob. I bought some elsewhere yesterday. Thanks anyway.
  6. Anyone who has watched the movie, My Cousin Vinnie, knows that in 1964 the Buick Skylark didn’t come with a limited slip rear end. Of course they were wrong! 🤷‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️
  7. Bill, I think your only option is regular car insurance as opposed to classic car insurance. One of the reasons why “classic” car insurance is so much more reasonable is they have requirements that cuts their risk. Storing cars outside of a locked garage makes them much more vulnerable to theft and vandalism especially in or near large cities.
  8. Interesting car. I just bought one in slightly better condition but I paid a lot more. Non original front seat. Also noticed the downflow radiator which makes this an early ‘65. Taillights are a little crusty which is normal but for the price it’s a real bargain if the rear quarters are as solid as they appear.
  9. The main reason why pics or description is helpful is that I restored a ‘69 Riviera here near Seattle a few years back. I sold it on EBay to some guys in Idaho who a year later sold it on EBay. If memory serves, that buyer was in Qatar. But the car could have wound up anywhere. I know it is a long shot but I thought it could help the OP if it is the same car.
  10. Pictures or a description would help. Buick made a lot of ‘69s.
  11. Also a standard front fender without cornering lamps can be cut to accommodate the cornering lamp. I added them to my ‘69. Good luck on your search.
