A 70 Buick Skylark wagon transformed into a GS Stage 1 wagon "What if". Hanover, PA

While the interior is not stock I find it well done. Sharp car for $35k US. Seen on Facebook

Hi! Im going to list my 1970 Sport Wagon turned GS Stage 1+ Sport Wagon for sale. The car is truly amazing top to bottom, inside out and mechanicly. It truly has no issues and is show quality throughout. It has the drivetrain, suspension, steering box, sway bars, and box control arms all taken from a Stage 1 GS. The grille and hood were also robbed from it and put on my wagon. The motor is a well put together 455. TA Hemi Killer Cam, headwork including TA 1.6 rockers and perches and heavy springs. It has a Kenny Bell oil pump, TA Performance intake manifold, Demon 850 headers, and the coveted Micky Thompson Super scavenger headers. The trans is a well built TH 400 with a B&M Quick Silver shifter. The interior is full custom and is top notch. The paint is beautiful everywhere and is bright.. its Mistsubishi 3000gt red. The rear is posi with 3.64 gears. The body is excellent with no issues. Most of its life was spent in TX and CA. The underside is just as nice as the top side. Its a real Muscle Wagon, a real Sport Wagon, and is now also true GS Stage 1+ throughout. The GS Stage 1 that they never made for us. It does it all, truly, show, go and take the kids and grandkids to the local show or out for ice cream, or take it to the track and have fun making passes. As you all know, you will never see another the same, no matter where you go. I am located in Hanover PA 17331. I have a clear title in hand. The price is 35,000 obo. There are no dissapointments with it at all. People are always nutz over it and gets its picture taken every time you take it out. When you start it their eyes really light up. Its a pleasure to drive with PS, PB, and very cold A/c. It also has air shocks in the rear which give it a very smooth ride and the option to lift the ass end up some should you like that look. I have ALOT of documentation on the car including all original paperwork that came with it with the manuals, protect-o-plate, 50 yrs worth of receipts, and pictures all along the way from its original state to what you see now.
Shes one of a kind and I know someone will be very happy and proud to own and drive it. Here is someones chance..
Thanks for checking out my ride.

It doesnt seem like a Buick Wagon without the upper glass windows.

Oldsmobiles had the upper glass windows in 70-72. No Buick had them from 1970-72. They did in 68-9.

I like this concept. Well executed. I'm not a big fan of the seat cover treatment but the rest is neat. I'm also curious about why it seems to have a drum brake master cylinder but a disc brake pedal. 

As to the upper window treatment, the cars with it (65-72 Olds, 65-69 Buick) had a longer wheelbase and longer rear doors. This 70 car would be on the shorter wheelbase, same as a Chevelle wagon. 

While I don't know why Buick dropped the Sportwagon in 1970, I wonder if had something to do with the reintroduction of the one year only full size Buick wagon in 1970 just prior to the introduction of the full sized clamshell wagons in 1971 (after the full sized Buick wagon had been dropped for 1965).

If you're going to remove the shifter lever on the column, either put a tilt column in it or shave that "nub" off and smoothen it out. My opinion........

 I'm with you, I think a Sportwagon is a nicer car. I do admire the work that has gone into the 70 GS conversion.
