1965 Buick Skylark Gran Sport lot of (2) original vintage advertisements & 6pgs. Road Test W/specifications.
DESCRIPTION:
A howitzer with windshield wipers. The new Buick Skylark Gran Sport.
400 cu. in./325 bhp.
There is mounting evidence that our engineers have turned into a bunch of performance enthusiasts.
First they stuff the Wildcat full of engine. Then the Riviera Gran Sport. And now this, the Skylark GS, which is almost like having your own, personal-type nuclear deterrent. We've just turned it loose on our dealers. (See the Buick dealers run.)
Aside from all those cubic inches and horses and 445 lb-ft of torque, just what is this thing that our engineers have unleashed?
It’s a pretty sophisticated suspension package, for one thing: Heavy-duty springs and shocks, plus a stabilizer bar that's about twice as stiff as the normal Skylark's. Axle wind-up is snubbed by heavy-duty upper control arm bushings.
It's also a floor-shift 3-speed, with all forward gears synchronized. Dual exhausts. A reinforced convertible frame to handle all that extra torque. 7.75x14 tires. All standard equipment.
Want to go the 4-speed route?
There’s a close-ratio unit available. Axle ratios? They read like this — 2.78, 3.08, 3.23, 3.36, 3.55, and 3.73:1.
Well, there's some of the evidence. Performance enthusiasts, that’s what they are.
More power to them.
