Description

Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is excited to present this 1953 Buick Skylark. Buick called it a sports car, which is definitely a stretch, but there's no denying that the dropping door line was directly inspired by European sports cars and gave the Skylark a sporting look. 1690 were built in 1953, and with a sticker price over $5000, it shouldn't be a surprise. Today, they are among the most highly prized collectables of the '50s, standing tall among names like Biarritz, Seville, and Imperial. This stunning vehicle boasts a striking red exterior that captures the essence of 1950s style and sophistication. Complementing its vibrant exterior is a luxurious red and white leather interior, offering a harmonious blend of comfort and vintage charm. Under the hood, the Skylark is powered by the formidable 322CID Fireball V8 engine, topped by a 4-barrel carburetor and that massive air cleaner, plus distinctive chrome valve covers and Buick Green paint. The Skylark is equipped with a range of features that highlight its status as a premium automobile of its time. The automatic convertible top allows for effortless transitions between open-air cruising and a more enclosed driving experience, providing versatility and enjoyment in any weather. Inside, the leather interior exudes luxury, while the power seats offer customizable comfort for both driver and passengers. The inclusion of power brakes, power steering, and power windows underscores the vehicle's advanced engineering, providing ease of operation and a touch of modern convenience. For those who appreciate the finer details, the Skylark is fitted with wide white walls and wire wheels, adding a touch of classic elegance to its overall appearance. The AM radio offers a nostalgic audio experience, connecting you to the golden era of motoring. This 1953 Buick Skylark is a testament to timeless design and innovation, offering a unique opportunity to own a piece of automotive history that continues to captivate enthusiasts and collectors alike.
