Buick .... Fast with Class!

Had Buick built a GSX 455 in 1968, this would likely have been the result!

Purchased from my father in 1978, this Buick Skylark Custom started life with a 350 V8 and two barrel carb. I have transformed it into  what might have been a "GSX 455" back in the day.

Join me on my trip to the 25th Anniversary Buick Gran Sport Nationals in Bowling Green, KY, May 2005. Just click the link and enjoy the ride. What a trip it was!

Great Buick man, just sweet. I think you might could help me. I need a front clip for my Skylark. It's a 69. If I can't get the entire clip, I definitely need the hood, passenger side front fender, bumper and grille. Do you have any idea where I could check. I also heard that 68 and 69 GS and Custom parts are interchangeable. Is that true? Thanks
