Just a side note...I am thinking $22K but if you really into these cars and want it specifically then its worth the price

That thing is real sweet in my opinion Chris. I am aware you know a lot more about other models than me, so are you able to answer these questions:

- Does the model #44667 denote GS400 for 1966 or just Skylark Convertible?
- Am I correct the stock wheels would have been 14" and not 15"?
- Would that Red pinstripe be standard fare on this colour?
- Is there a way to confirm "original engine" in the 66 Buicks?

I'm not a potential buyer, just seeking knowledge is all. Hey, hard to knock a mid 60's GM A-Body Convertible in Blue with a stick :yes:

That is one sweet car. Back in 66 my cousin's boyfriend bought one brand new. It was gold with an automatic. For some reason it always made an impression on me. Try buying a 66-67 convertible Chevelle in this conditions for 28K, it will not happen. Chevelle in the same conditions will almost be double this price.

As far as I know the red pinstripe is stock and correct.

Nice old nailvalve!

What a car

My old Malibu convert was PW and Power top too. When you come to a traffic light, power down the top, all the windows, the light changes and off you go. Cool!

The Buick also has AM/FM. It is loaded. $28 sounds like a deal, if it is a nice as it looks in the pictures.

Ohio car, no bodywork pictures and fresh paint, pass.

Cool car, I had one totally identical to this except it was white. Even had the 4-speed and PW.
