      Back in 1968 when I first started driving, a buddy had a (I believe) '65 Sky Lark with that V6. Man I wanted one of those. Ended up getting a Buick many years later '74 Le Sabre. Drove it from Wisconsin to Reno NV with a BAD tie rod end. It shook so bad I could hardly hold the wheel. But quit if I accelerated. So I slowly accelerated to about 90 then hit the brakes and hauled her down to about 40 and started the process over again. Drove like that (white knuckled) for 2,000 miles.

    My grandparents are from Germany.
    My grandfather was a engineer at Opel and my grandmother's family own a couple of Opel dealerships.
    To celebrate their 50th anniversary they decided to tour the United States by car.
    They purchased a nearly identical version of this car.
    The funny thing is they intended to purchase a Kadett!
    They drove all over the United States and put 40k miles on their Buick in six months.
    When the returned to Germany the gifted it to my parents who drove it only on long trips and important occasions.
    Believe me it was wonderful floating down the highway in air conditioned silence instead of the buzzy sweaty Opel sedan or wagon my parents drove everyday.
    They kept up until 1996 when it was rear ended at a stoplight.

    Watching this video brought back so many memories. My grandfather had this same car in silver and every summer I would drive with him out to Long Island from NYC. On the speedometer that little arm was a speed alert that you could set at any speed. My grandfather set it on 80 and I will always remember the constant ahhhhhhhhhhh blaring along the way. Grandpa was a leadfoot! When I got older I would tune it up and I still have the timing light, dwell meter and special Allen key tool used to adjust the points. That Wildcat engine was amazing.

    Long time fan. This will probably never be seen. Your comment about the plugs is bang on. You should make a plug reading master class video. All the reasons you mentioned. Lean, rich, head gaskets, valves rings etc. they say it all. 🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸

    "Stored inside". That looks like it is the case with this one. Most of the ones I go look at these days I wind up asking the seller, "Stored inside of what, a salt mine or a vat of acid, er what? If I touch it will my hand fall off?"
    Never goes well after that.

    we had an old VW van when I was a kid. Something broke on it with the ignition, so my dad rigged it somehow with a light switch. Had to make sure it was shut off or would kill the battery or burn something up. I'm not a mechanic, so not sure, but when I saw that light switch it immediately brought back memories of my dad's "poor man's" mechanic work.
