There are definitely a lot of extra parts. I counted 4 steering wheels so far. A lot of NOS items in boxes too

I was fortunate enough to come across another Buick Skylark recently. The owner passed away in the 1980’s and the car has been sitting in the current condition since the 1980’s. The son recently decided to sell the car. I picked it up in Arkansas but at one time it was on the west coast. I’m in the process of cataloging all the parts to see if anything is missing. Should be a fun rebuild.

Hi Paul. Looks like old-tank was able to get you the info you needed. I took some measurements and added some pictures for you also. You can double click to expand the image . I measured from the middle of the filler neck to the back end of the tank. 13.5 took me to the back seam. I also put on the other measurements so you can see them also. Thanks , Brian

I worked on the rear quarter glass this weekend and was able to remove the window frame mechanism through the access hole. I had to remove the cylinders since the piston was froze and wouldn’t allow me to compress the mechanism enough to get it out thru the access hole. Once the mechanism was compressed it came out easily. Thanks again for the info. I included some pictures Brian

Thanks for the info paulbone, much appreciated Brian

Hi everyone. I’m a newbie here. I’m in the early tear down stages of my skylark. I posted some info about the skylark in the introduce yourself section. When removing the interior I noticed cuts and rewelding on the doors and rear quarter glass area. My assumption is this was done to allow accommodation of the hydro-lectric set-up. Please correct me if I’m wrong . My hydro-letric system needs rebuilt along with the window channel assemblies . The car was last on the road in 1966 so I’m assuming this was a factory modification. I have included some pictures. I would appreciate any input. If

Hi everyone. I’m a newbie to this insightful forum. Owned my first 54 Buick in 1977 at the age of 11. A 4 door special. I saved up my money and paid 75 dollars for the car. I still own the car. In 2006 I bought a 54 skylark out of Billings Montana and put it in storage in a barn at my fathers farm in Pennsylvania. 12 years later it’s out of the barn and ready for restoration. The last inspection sticker on the car is from PA dated 1966. I attached a photos of it being taken out of the barn, a picture of the PA inspection sticker, and a picture of it 2 weeks ago in my garage in the early sta
