Yes, seems to be. I saw that this morning. An offer of $15k or so probably gets it, that?s not bad. Wish it had air

Please, for the love of God and Walmart parking lot puppies, just cut all the fluffy talk and tell us what you're selling...

(what, no patina?)



1965 Buick Skylark Gran Sport Convertible.
Original 401ci Nailhead V8 engine, automatic transmission. Car runs and drives great. Steering is tight. The paint seems to be original.  The top may have been replaced recently. Stored in a climate controlled garage for a majority of its life. (maybe)

Mileage seems to be original to the car.  The interior has newer upholstery, (I think) correct for this GS. Buick wheels are in great shape and tires are starting to show their age.

The first 60 years were spent on surviving. The second 60 are gonna be spent on fun!

I don't think it sold. The listing just ended.

Looks like it did sell for a best offer, probably $15-$18k range.

From what I can see it sold for $19,880, which I think was the Buy it Now price.  Not a bad buy.

I think eBay does not show what the best offer was, just cross out the price. I?ve seen this too when I actually won the item with an offer.

This car was for sale about 2 years ago a dealer out of Grand Rapids or Kalamazoo
Had it as I checked on buying this one! It might have been on contract! Liked the color combo
But bottom was dirty and rusty trunk and exhaust! You
