Finished in Mandarin Red and equipped with a tan convertible top over a red and white leather interior, this Skylark comes from the selling dealer with body manuals, vehicle documentation, an engraved original steering wheel center cap, and a clear title.

@Robfairchild – How is the sheet metal? Is it all steel? Any bindi anywhere? Any dents? When was it last painted? Is it an original color? The engine is original? How easy is it to start? Why are you selling? ...
The sheet metal is pretty straight, the passenger fender has a two dents that look like they could be removed with paintless dent repair. It is all steel, and it all sounds like metal so very little filler. It seems like this car has been someone's baby since day one. It had a repaint 20ish years ago in the original color, the engine and transmission are original, the original carb was replaced with the same model and the original is included. It starts without hesitation and runs like a dream. We did put a new battery in and replaced the hydraulic hoses coming from the pump that operates the power top, power windows and power seat.
AUTOMATIC BID: $32,500
