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!
Originally a trim designation, the Buick Skylark became a standalone option with the 1964 model year. The second generation Skylark followed in 1968 with a new design. It also featured additional safety features, such as parking lights that illuminated with the car’s headlights, shoulder belts, and side markers. The design was sleek, with the two-door coupes receiving fastback-like styling, a long hood with quad lights, and a simple yet elegant grille up front. While a range of engines were available, our featured 1971 Buick Skylark is powered by the 350-4 This 1971 Skylark could serve as either a great starter classic or a valuable addition to a collection.

Buick’s midsize offering from 1973 to 2004, the Regal, entered the market just as the Malaise Era was getting started. So, instead of moaning about the stringent emissions and economy regulations, Buick made it a bit more upmarket than segment contenders. Then, the second generation came about in 1978, bringing with it fresh styling and a station wagon body style. Then, in 1982, the Grand National trim came out, to celebrate Buick winning the Manufacturers Cup in 1981 and 1982 for the NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National. Buick proudly advertised the car as “What wins on Sunday sells on Monday”. Up for sale today is a 1985 Buick Regal Grand National, but one that’s been extensively modified. The car pushes a four-figure horsepower digit at the wheels, and the current owner proudly tells us that it does a 5.2 in the 1/8th at 131mph. Want more figures? How about an 8.4 in the quarter mile, passing the line at a staggering 161mph? Furthermore, this build has just 4,500 miles on it, and comes with some creature comforts that make it a viable regular car when required.
Cars from 1950 are getting rarer. During that time, automakers went above and beyond to produce works of art on wheels. Classic car enthusiasts know well enough that these icons are worth preserving, but there is a cost, namely convenience. That's when the topic of restoration comes up. Users can add modern amenities that make everyday life with the car more comfortable while still enjoying the nostalgia of the bygone era. This 1950 Buick Super is an excellent example of a classic that has been tastefully restored. According to reports, it has only been 2,000 miles since its full restoration.
If one were to hear the brand name Buick, what would spring to mind are some of the most impressive classic cars in history. An interesting fact about Buick is that it was among the first American automobile brands and was the company that established General Motors. It was founded more than a century ago and granted the world with fascinating automobiles that are coveted today. The Buick Special, otherwise known as the Series 40, is a model line produced by the company that was usually its lowest-priced model. In the year 1940, Buick marketed their year lineup as new and improved, and our subject, the 1940 Buick Special Series 40 Coupe, was among them.
Modeled straight after a concept car, Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark III to be precise, the C3 or third-gen Corvette stunned America when it hit the stands in 1968. Here was a car that traded the C2’s dainty looks for something truly muscular and futuristic. No surprise, then, that a C3 Corvette is on many a petrolhead’s list of ultimate must-haves. Therefore, we can fulfill one person’s dream, by offering this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for sale. With a reported 18,559 original miles, this car is truly a rare fish to catch.
With Jaguar Cars recently rebranding to mixed reactions from auto enthusiasts, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of their greatest hits from the past. One of these is the XJS grand tourer. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Jags ever made. Its flying buttresses and grunty V12 engine all make for a superb driving experience, and one heck of a weekend cruiser. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 1992 Jaguar XJS V12. The car has covered 94,231 miles so far, and has reportedly undergone some recent maintenance.
Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
