I surprised my dad by LS swapping his 1966 Buick Skylark for his birthday!

My great grandfather purchased this 1966 Buick Skylark brand new. I always knew it as my great grandmothers car because he passed on well before I was born. It was passed on to their youngest son and then to my father. He enjoyed it for a couple years and a pesky main seal leak turned into an entire rebuild on the engine. That was 17 years ago and it has been sitting without an engine. With the help of some Holley Performance parts lets see if we can surprise my father with an LS drivetrain in this family heirloom! No, this one is NOT FOR SALE! As always, thanks for watching!
