New project!

[BRUCESTUDE]

Today I picked up a '60 Lark Regal 4dr., with only 42,000 miles! It's been sitting for a while so lots of cleaning to see what I have, but there is no rust (aside from a few suspicious bubbles on the normal front fender spots) just a few dents to deal with someday. The 259 runs like a watch, and the steering feels tight...no brakes tho. The interior will needs some love too.

That looks to be in really good original condition. Quite a nice find.

Bruce,

Hope that you do the brakes and interior but forget about the rust and dents. No reason to "upgrade" an original car that is this good.

[StudeNewby]

Nice, solid looking Lark...enjoy!

[Michidan]

Really nice. Just about what I hope to find for the wife some day. Love the green too.

[jackb]

green again....!

[Don Kelstrom]

Nice find Bruce. That should be a really good driver.

Bill- That's kinda my plan, tho I want to add a 4bbl and Turner brakes, and of course chrome steelies to make it look fast!

That very car got up to the Yakima area a few years ago. Most of its life it was in Salem, Oregon, owned by a SDC member.

Nice looking car. I've always felt that the 4 door Lark was a well balanced design. But then, I'm a sucker for Larks anyway. Best of luck with it. A good coat of wax will preserve the exterior. I would take care of the rust spots before they really become a concern.

Sweet. I want one just like that to replace the 30,000 mile specimen my brother drove off a cliff! The arse survived, but he bent the frame on the Lark and let it die a slow neglectful death.
