New Classic Car

Well, my wife is gonna kill me some day, but I went out and bought another classic car. I always wanted an A body convertible, and I found a sweetheart. 1972 Buick Skylark GS455 convertible. It's one of 114 built that year with the 455 and the TH400. Triple white, original paint and interior, one-owner from California with power top, TH400, map lights, AM/FM, sport wheel and split bench seating. Seems to have 3.42 gears but I am not sure. It's not a "supercar" in the traditional sense, but I am enjoying it. You can go to the URL in my signature to see the pics.

Nothing wrong with the Buicks, Except the diehards are similiar to the Mopar crowd, seem to about 2% off kilter, [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif[/img]

mmcporter,
Sweetheart is right,--looks VERY clean. Buick was always a class ride with muscle --Enjoy--Remember your wife can only physically kill you once --mentally--just turn up the radio on your new sweetheart.---------JoeG [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Thanks Joe. Actually, she likes this car almost as much as I do, because it's a ragtop. She's already tried to (in vain) to do mental damage when I bought other stuff, like my LS6....
