Buick Skylark Gran Sport (1966)
for sale

Price: US $24,500.00

Description:

This is a unique muscle car that is not your everyday Chevelle, GTO, or Olds 442. You will rarely see one at your local car shows. This 1966 Buick factory Gran Sport has a 401 cubic inch Nail Head engine. Stock, this engine produced 445 lbs. of torque for lots of power at a low RPM. The car is in excellent overall condition with with no rust and all original sheet metal. All chrome is original and in very good condition. It has been refurbished with performance upgrades while staying true to the car's stock appearance. The stock PowerGlide 2 speed transmission has been replaced by a ST-400 3 speed automatic with a switch pitch converter that works perfectly. I still have the original PowerGlide which will convey with the car. Some of the many upgrades and features include a quick ratio steering box, heavy duty coil springs and shocks, Pertronix ignition, headers from TA Performance Buick, a 3:08 ten bolt posi-traction rear, 15 inch wheels and rear anti- sway bar. While unverified by me personally, this engine was reported to have been upgraded with Buick's performance cam that raised these engines to 340HP. It has had one high quality repaint of it's original Saddle Mist Poly color. The interior is in show room condition with practically flawless original upholstery and the tilt steering wheel having recently been restored to like new. I have receipts and documentation for many of the parts that been replaced or restored. The only items that need attention are the air conditioning which needs recharging, and the dash clock that is not working. In the past 5 years that I have owned the car, it has been meticulously gone over with attention to details that make this an exceptional looking, running, and driving muscle car from that period. I would recommend that anyone seriously interested in purchasing the car, come and look at it personally.
