Background Story of this 1971 Buick Skylark

Overview of 1971 Buick Skylark For Sale by Owner

Named after the soaring, graceful bird, Buick’s Skylark has become something of a cult classic for those who crave a classic car with a difference. Traditionally, the Skylark represented mainstream motoring with some luxury appointments, something that Buick continues to this day with their current offerings. Today’s 1971 Buick Skylark GS 455 is a third-generation example of this glorious nameplate, and currently resides in Woburn, Massachusetts. It’s done 114,785 miles and comes with a replaced performance distributor as well. Yes, this is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, so to speak. Grab it because it will make you happy with every drive, and it’s a decent asset for the future as well.

Exterior and Interior

With its chromed bumpers, quad headlamps and typical Sixties styling, this red 1971 Buick Skylark GS 455 is a treat for everyone to behold. Long, low, and sporting substantial overhangs, it embodies everything about Sixties American motoring, when cars rumbled along the roads and ‘compact’ wasn’t yet a mainstream term. Indeed, two-door variants like this car got a 112-inch wheelbase, and measured in at nearly 202 inches bumper to bumper. This car also comes with white-lettered tires on period wheels, a rear spoiler, chrome window beading and even chrome wheel arch accents. The white interior of this 1971 Buick Skylark GS 455 is easily accessed via the frameless doors, and once you’re inside, you’ve got two individual low-back seats up front, plus a broad bench directly behind. There’s some wood trim on the dash and in the center console, and the interior appears to be suitably stock. The original Sonomatic push-button radio is present, as is the car’s climate control system. The trunk is equally neat and tidy, with the spare wheel placed within its fitted cover.

Engine

Packing a mega 455ci V8, this 1971 Buick Skylark GS 455 isn’t what you’d call slow. It can call upon a factory claimed 350hp and 510lb-ft of torque! Power goes to the rear wheels through a TH400 3-speed automatic gearbox. The engine uses an interesting FiTech fuel-injected carburetor, and we’re told that there’s a replaced performance distributor, intake manifold, spark plugs and chrome valve covers too.

1972 Buick Skylark GSX Tribute

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,999
SOLD

The Buick GSX or Gran Sport was a sporty muscle car variant based on the popular Skylark model. This variant was offered since 1965, with a variety of Gran Sport variants, with the GSX being the series’ swansong. Today, finding a bona fide GSX can be tough since many are in the hands of collectors and of course, not likely to be sold. Happily, since the GSX is based on the regular third-generation Skyline, it’s possible to create one if you get hold of the right parts. That’s precisely what we’ve got here for sale, a 1972 Buick Skylark GSX Tribute from Clifton, New Jersey. So if you want an epic symbol of early Seventies, pre-Malaise era American muscle and aren’t too fussed about the car not being a GSX from the factory, talk to us ASAP and get your hands on this car.

1954 Buick Skylark Convertible

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$133,995
SOLD

A low mileage ’54 Buick Skylark convertible in Willow Green? Sounds like an enthusiast’s dream. In 1953, the Buick Roadmaster Skylark was introduced to celebrate Buick’s 50th anniversary and was created by Harley Earl, a distinguished GM designer. It was priced much higher than the standard Roadmaster convertible. 1954 brought some radical styling changes, moving it towards the “long and low” design concept that marked the mid to late 1950s. Earl redesigned the Skylark and made it smaller and lighter by putting it on the Century series 40 Chassis. The vehicle came with 12v electricals and a 322 cubic inch Fireball V8 (both firsts in the Buick world). However, despite the redesign, sales hit a slump, possibly partly due to the fact that it was based on the shorter Century series 40 chassis and not the Roadmaster series 60 series like its predecessor. Only 836 examples ended up being made before production was stopped, and the owner states that this beauty was number 44 off the line in the Flint MI plant. It is also reportedly one of just 166 that remain registered in the US today. Overall, this is a rare and beautifully maintained refreshed original survivor. It can only be described as “stunning” and draws a crowd wherever she goes!

1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$49,990

The Buick Regal is one of those nameplates from the Seventies that you can still buy today, albeit not in North America, but China! Introduced in 1973, just as the Malaise Era was taking hold, the Regal has always been the premium midsize offering from this storied American automaker. Regals have been made in coupe, sedan and station wagon forms, and come with some hot variants too. North American Regal sales ceased in 2020, as Buick wanted to refocus its attention towards solely selling SUVS in North America. Today, we have a second-generation 1986 Buick Regal T-Type Turbo for sale from Downey, California. This was considered quite a hot car in its time, due to its punchy 3.8-liter turbo V6 and performance-tuned suspension. This 44,107-mile car also comes with an upgraded intercooler set-up for a bit more bite.

PENDING SALE
$53,499

By 1965, the Buick Riviera had firmly established itself as one of the most striking American personal luxury coupes of its time. Combining Bill Mitchell’s sharp styling with Buick’s refined powertrains, the Riviera delivered both presence and performance in equal measure. This example, a 1965 model, carries the legendary 401 cubic-inch “Nailhead” V8 paired to a smooth-shifting ST-400 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing 20,446 miles on the odometer, it has been repainted in an eye-catching orange finish and fitted with aftermarket wheels, setting it apart while still honoring the car’s bold original character.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$109,999

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.

1967 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$89,999

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.

1977 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,000

Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
