  • Today, we take Ike's 1964 Buick Skylark for a drive, which is equipped with a Buick 350 small block, and a two speed automatic transmission. This car was rescued from a field a few years ago; Ike nursed it back to health, and it has been very reliable ever since.

    Love my Buicks. Had a 69 Electra 225 convertible about 10 years ago. 455 4 barrel and just rode like a wet dream. I sure do miss that car. Don't change anything about the looks of that ride Ike. Even the big rust holes give it character.

    I've got a 64 Buick special with the aluminum motor your talking about and man I can't complain. Reliable and looks good plus frys the wheels till third lol

    • @tracyfoor4336
      @tracyfoor4336 5 лет назад

      Cool. That would be a 215 ci Buick if it's all aluminum and a carry over engine from 63. My 64 Skylark 2dr came from the fractory with a 300 ci engine with aluminum heads, aluminum intake and a 4 brl carb. Buick motor division told Me back in 86 when I boughth the car it was a 4300 v8 series car that was the daddy to the 65 Grand Sport Buick according to My vin number.

    Ike you are the man i aspire to be! I have four cars (85 K20 4wd suburban, 86 D100, 79 Malibu, and a 83 foxbody mustang, want to add a lot more) I look forward to seeing all your other rides, you are definitely a "older the better" kinda guy.

    I dig it Ike. I used to have a '64 Buick Electra 225 (Deuce & a Quarter) w/401 Nailhead. That thing would float down the highway. Same front end as yours, but that Electra was about twice as long.

    @robertkinney9925 8 лет назад

    OK, very cool. I've had a 64 S/L since 1989 and still runs great today. Looks like someone started to remove the wide trim on the side of yours like I did on mine. I welded up the holes and shaved the hood and trunk and sides as well. I painted mine in the driveway and the car looks great without the WIDE chrome on the side. Also '65 Skylark wheels look killer on these cars. The 300 "aluminum" engine had been replaced by 64 with a iron block with aluminum heads and also an aluminum timing cover. I real bear to work on because of tendance for bolts to seize in the aluminum and break off. My turbo 300 2 speed transmission still works fine. Enjoyed your video very much.

    I love the car. Seriously, somebody did a good job putting that car together with spare parts. Hey, small wonder, it's North Carolina with a 1964 North Carolina license plate. Yes those aluminum V8's were sought out for racing. Those and the F-85 Oldsmobiles.

    A buddy of mine in high school had a '70 Skylark with a 350 Buick. He went into the army and took his car with him and built the motor in it after basic. When he came back it would run high 13's in the quarter mile on street rubber. Doesn't sound terribly impressive but bear in mind that aside from a chrome air cleaner and a set of headers the engine looked stone stock.

      @MrTheHillfolk 8 лет назад

      +transdetendal man I wish.
      And i haven't seen my bud in years.
      It was a light green metallic with a tan vinyl top.
      Even though it had a 2 barrel 350 it would do a powerbrake or leave about 20 feet of tire squeal off the line from a flatfoot...this was the late 80s , I think he paid around 3500, which was pushing sanity back then

      @MrTheHillfolk 8 лет назад

      +Duncan Czeizinger id be cool to leave it alone, but being in the east she's gonna fade away unless ya treat it like a summer car and keep it garaged and outta the weather and all...
      maybe just make it solid again, patch up the quarters correctly but don't worry about painting the area mint again, just use some spray paint to try and make the patina correct....there's a world of possibilities

    • @duncan9168
      @duncan9168 8 лет назад

      feel free to maybe do some safety and handling upgrades at that point maybe..mild brake upgrades...
      I forgot what chassis that's called in the gm world , but I'm sure you could go mild or build a G machine with the aftermarket, and yea keep the patina outside

    that was a 300 ci Buick motor - cast iron block, aluminum heads but only on 1964. In 65 it was a 300 iron block. 350 is a good motor, tons of torque. Watch the oil pressure on that motor - they have a nasty tendency of spitting out rods if the oil pressure gets too low (and it's always pretty low).
