Cruisin Classics is proud to present this 1970 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible. A sharp-looking cruiser finished in a respray of its original Burnished Saddle Poly. The paint has a nice overall presentation with the kind of honest imperfections you'd expect on a driver-quality classic, while the bright work is largely in good condition with only a couple areas showing some wear. The car sits right on a set of aftermarket Magnum 500-style wheels with Buick center caps, wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires. The window glass throughout is exceptionally clean and looks new, and the car has a brand-new convertible top that looks great and operates exactly as it should. Inside, this Skylark has been nicely brought up to date with all-new upholstery, carpet, door panels, gauges, and a new Buick three-spoke steering wheel. The dash pad is crack-free, the power windows operate smoothly, and the heater puts out good heat with a strong fan. The radio is currently inoperative.
Where this Buick really separates itself is underneath. The car has been completely taken off the frame and thoroughly restored underneath, with the floor pans and frame fully redone and coated in Lizard Skin for added protection. All of the body bushings have been replaced, along with the brake and transmission lines. The suspension and steering have been gone through from front to back, with new upper and lower control arms, spindles, front disc and rear drum brakes, springs, shocks, steering box, inner and outer tie rods, sway bars, bushings, and ball joints. The car also received a new power master starter, boxed trailing arms, and a GM 10-bolt rear end. There's a new gas tank underneath as well. A full dual exhaust system with turbo mufflers gives the car a proper V8 sound without being obnoxious. It's obvious that a substantial amount of time, money, and effort went into making the chassis and underside of this Skylark something you can actually enjoy rather than just something that looks good sitting still.
Under the hood is an Oldsmobile 350ci V8 that has been fully overhauled to what we believe are factory specifications. It's backed by a TH350 automatic transmission and the engine compartment presents very nicely, with plenty of new components including a new coolant overflow tank, alternator, power steering pump, and brake master cylinder and booster with dual reservoir. This isn't being presented as a flawless, trailer-only show car - it's a nicely equipped, heavily serviced Buick convertible with a great deal of the expensive mechanical and chassis work already completed. The combination of the 350 V8, TH350, fresh interior, new convertible top, Magnum 500-style wheels, and extensively rebuilt chassis makes this Skylark a car you can get in, drop the top, and enjoy while still having plenty of room to make it your own.

Here at Cruisin Classics, we understand that you have many options when choosing where you purchase your classic, muscle or collector car and we would like to thank you for considering us.
Cruisin Classics has been buying and selling cars for many years.. The majority were your average daily drivers but our passion has always been in muscle cars and hot rods so in 1996, Cruisin Classics built a 56,000 sq.ft. showroom located in Columbus, OH that they still operate out of today. All of our vehicles are hand-picked and selected to ensure they fit our inventory. This facility is now arguably one of the best-stocked collections for sale in the US housing hundreds of unique automobiles all under one roof. We invite you to our facility! There is something for everybody when you come to visit.
After years of serving as central Ohio's premiere classic car dealer at Cruisin Classics Auto Sales, we saw an unfulfilled need that was not being met for our clients. We loved helping match our clients with the classic and American muscle cars of their dreams. But what about after the purchase? We recognized that our clients needed a trusted resource to continue to care for their classic vehicles. It did not sit well with us that our valued clients and their incredible vehicles were being outsourced to, sometimes several, third-party resources for maintenance and performance needs. We also wanted to help the many people that we had met over the years who already owned classic vehicles which were in need of restoration, upgrades, and maintenance. Too often, we were seeing vehicles with so much potential left sitting in garages under covers because their owners did not know who to turn to for such specialized work. It is our goal to offer our clients a truly comprehensive, seamless, and enjoyable classic car ownership experience, from purchase to maintenance to storage. Thus, Cruisin Classics Performance Center was born. We have cherry-picked the most talented, experienced, and passionate team of technicians to offer our clients a true one-stop-shop solution for any and all of their classic car needs. Our honest business model has lasted almost 25 years to date and Cruisin Classics has a worldwide reputation as one of the best in the business.
Outside of the shop, this business has afforded us the opportunity to be actively involved in our community and fulfill our goal of supporting several local and national organizations that hold a special place in our hearts. We are proud sponsors of the Kiwanis Club of Columbus, the Columbus USO, Honor Flight, Special Olympics, multiple car clubs, and much more.
In conclusion, 100% customer satisfaction is our main goal. Always has been.. always will be. We would like to invite anyone considering one of our vehicles to come to our beautiful facility to inspect the car in person or send somebody on your behalf.
