This is the 1966 GS used in Motor Trend July 1966 Road test car,and March of 1966 Modern Rod. Does anyone know where this car is? The pic was takin in So California Lions, Fontana ,and or Pamona CA (Raceway) in 66. I'm pretty sure the guy who owned it name is Jim Lane..in So California..was tested by Motor Trend and Car craft in 1966. Can anyone locate this guy..or might know of him? Also any vintage photos of this car would be great too!! I have recieved 2 calls on this car and still no leads..so I know its out there.

 

Welcome to a web site dedicated to the first Buick Skylark Gran Sport's and the engines that power them.   Many of the pictures on this site have been taken from the web with the understanding of free use. 

The first generation of Buick Gran Sports have a small but loyal following.  The engines that powered them, the infamous nailhead, has an even smaller following.  I hope that through the use of this web-site, more of an interest will be displayed for both the cars and the engines that make them fly. Also As of January 1st 2008 this site will be updated and new pics of cars, stories and fun things will be added. Also a 1966 GS Registry will be reborn and you will be able to send pics and info of your 1966 GS's. We want to know how many are out there in garages, barns, fields all of them. If you have a 66 GS you want to sell or have nos or used parts for sale Contact Jim Shiels at TheGSX@AOL.com 508-509-5471 cell EST
