After ~4 years of not being run, the last 3 1/2 just sitting in my garage,
my 1979 Buick Skylark is running again. Not coincidentally this happened shortly
after I gave it to some old friends, Eric & Cheryl Walter. (When the car
belonged to my father, Eric was the one that took the 327 (double-bump/camelback
heads) engine out of Cheryl's 1966 Chevy Impala, had it cleaned up and
overbored, put in a mild cam, larger valves (2.02/1.60), good dual plane
manifold and headers and put it in the car my grandfather gave my father. Some
time later my father sold the car to me for about what he had in it. I put in
good ceramic coated headers, 3" exhaust (with high-flow catalytic converter &
glass pack muffler), Holly ProJection fuel injection with closed loop setup, new
brakes & suspension. And then the woodruff key that attached the harmonic
balancer to the crankshaft sheared. Fixing this would be straightforward (6-8
hours of work was the initial estimate; it took between 5 and 6), but I was
short on time. After buying my Corvette I wanted it out of the garage so I could
fit my Jeep, Corvette & motorcycles in my 2 car garage. Eventually I was ready
to pay to have it hauled away. I would prefer to sell or give it to someone that
would appreciate it and play with it. I knew I didn't want to leave my Corvette
out in the rain all winter long, and I told Eric. He, Cheryl and Linnea (their
then 1 month old daughter) flew out. Eric drove back to Bozeman; Cheryl & Linnea
flew back.
