Description:

1972 Buick Skylark - CA Blue Plate Car

Selling my 1972 Buick Skylark. Original California car. Extremely SOLID, original, and rust free in all the usual places. ~56,6XX miles

Last year of the classic and ever popular A-body style!

Purchased recently with the intent of pro-touring the car but with a pending career change I have to adjust my priorities and cut back on projects. All I’ve done is bleed the brakes and vacuum the interior.
Runs and drives great! Starts every time, smooth idle and comfortable ride. Ready to go weekend cruiser or perfect candidate for restoration or pro-touring.

Car is located in Carlsbad, CA. $5950 OBO. Motivated Seller!

Car is extremely original and complete, down to the smog pump and manifold.

The bad:
Looks to have had a Maaco scuff and spray in the past. Sun baked patina on the roof and chipped clear coat in a few spots. I’ve taken pictures of the worst offenses below:
