There was a 71/72ish buickSkylark wagon in the Ecology yard on Eubank in Wilmington (Los Angeles harbor area) last week.  Had recently rebuilt looking qjet on a manifold.  Found it odd that it had divorced choke style.  Figured all would have the integral choke by 71/72?   Maybe an older engine?     The wagon was green/green with perfect upholstery and pretty damn straight bodywork.   Even apparently rust free tailgate and front fender bottoms.     Would have been a nice fixer upper had it been an Olds.    It's fate is sealed now.    Matter of days or weeks...

Unfortunately I am out of town this weekend so I can't go back myself but on the off chance you are in the LA area or know someone.....

Hi Guys,
    I know this is a bit off topic but a coworker needs a 4 barrel 
intake manifold for his Skylark with a 350 Buick engine. He's not real 
picky so either iron or aluminum would be fine. Preferably early 70's 
vintage. Can anyone help him out? If you have one let me know how much 
you'd want for it and also a shipping quote to 08037 if possible.
Thanks,
Gene

Subject: Muncie is an M20, needs gone thru- F/S

I have no immediate need for a 1967 Muncie M20 wide ratio trans.
It has minor oxidation inside. Turns, but with resistance, due to rusty 
balls in the bearings. Teeth look good. has the larger 1" countershaft. 
Tooth counts on the cluster are 21-27-30-36 [pretty sure, but this combo is 
not at all listed among the possible at 
http://www.nastyz28.com/transid.html] More generous 1st gear of the M20 is 
desirable if you do NOT have as much tork amplification in the Final Drive- 
like a 3.23, 3.08 or God Forbid numerically lower gears.

10-spline 2-ring input- surface rust on input shaft.
Small dia output- 27 spline, like TH350 Yoke
ID stamp = P7E12~ [not sure what that is after the "2"] = 1967 I believe
VIN? Stamp = 7U152490 [VIN stamp on a 1967 unit??] [What is a "U"? 
Corvette?]
3915020 snout
3885010 case
3857584 Tail with RH speedo outlet per Olds applications of the era.
3884685 cover

Inquire DIRECTLY via email or phone please. Not just a reply to the list.

That car sure don't look too bad to me, by Ohio standards (i.e., anything
that doesn't have rustholes visible from 20 ft is restorable.) Vista Cruiser
prices are poised to shot through the roof soon, make your decision
carefully.

Now that my December issue of "Hemmings Muscle Machines" has showed in my ma=
ilbox I'm reminded that last month (November) there was an 8-page feature on=
 the 1964 F-85/Cutlass 4-4-2. Sorry I didn't mention it sooner -- it may sti=
ll be available at your local newsstand.

Okay, I found a couple items to quibble with. The cover blurb I.D.'s the '64=
 Cutlass convert pictured in an inset photo incorrectly as a 1966 model.  Al=
so, they go to considerable lengths in the first two pages of the article to=
 stress that "contrary to what you have been led to believe" Oldsmobile neve=
r made a 4-4-2 in 1964. "This is not just a matter of semantics, they claim,=
 citing the lack of the words "4-4-2" on window stickers as primary evidence=
. They add: "They made a *B-09* Cutlass." Well, aside from the fact that to=20=
be accurate they made B09-optioned *F-85s* (which *included* the Cutlass), y=
es, as a matter of fact it DOES seem like a matter of semantics to me. I mea=
n, 2,999 F-85s/Cutlasses went out the door with 4-4-2 badges bolted to them.=
 I think that counts for something!

Ah well, probably just couldn't come up with a better way to start the artic=
le. HMM remains the top American performance magazine out there, so I'm will=
ing to cut them a little slack.

a kick out of this:

If you peruse the rest of the site you'll see many a "Cutlass, Monte Carlo,
