1966 Buick Skylark

Going Fast With Class
 
 

This is my new project.

Due to financial disasters I was forced to part with my beloved Tacoma, the truck served me well and will be greatly missed.  But my loss turned out to be the start of yet another project and this time it is American made.  I swapped the wheels that were on my Tacoma for the above 66 Buick Skylark.  She has a 340cid V8 4bbl carb, ST300 Trans (2speed powerglide in case you were wondering) and has the rare bucket seat, floor shift, center console options.  The car is pretty rough appearance wise (not for long) but is mechanically pretty sound.  As soon as funds are available the big job will begin.  My goal is a pro touring Buick sittin on 17in touquethrusts that will out handle, brake and accelerate most modern sports cars.  As the project starts getting underway I will be posting pics of the restification on here so stay tuned!!

Here is the backside of the Lark (told ya she was rough)

When I said Bondo I ment BONDO!!! Gonna be a lot of work

At least the dash is in good shape
