Description
Introduced for the 1968 model year, the third-generation Buick Skylark featured revised styling and a range of available V8 engines shared with Buick's growing performance lineup. While the GS and GSX models represented the division's factory muscle-car offerings, the Skylark's A-body platform also provided a popular foundation for later performance-oriented builds and GSX-inspired tributes.
Reportedly acquired by the seller's uncle in 2011, this 1970 Buick Skylark Coupe was inherited by the seller in 2023. Modified in the style of a GSX prior to the seller's acquisition, the car is powered by a 455ci V8 paired with a three-speed TH400 automatic transmission and is finished in yellow with black graphics over black vinyl upholstery. The seller reports that a GSX donor car supplied various components used in the conversion, including exterior trim and appearance elements.
Additional features include a GSX-style hood and rear spoiler, hood-mounted tachometer, long-tube headers, electric exhaust cutouts, a limited-slip rear axle, and 17" American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.
This modified 1970 Buick Skylark Coupe is now offered with a car cover and a clean Massachusetts title in the seller's name.
