Looks more like a hardtop to me rather than a convertible. I would say a '62 Skylark. |

1961 or 1962 Special Skylark Skylark was a model in the Special series |

My NADA lists it as "Special Skylark" for 1961, but just as "Skylark" for '62. The '62 brochure also says just "Skylark". Whether this is a '61 or '62 depends on the body style. In '61, it came as a 2-door coupe only. In '62, it came as a 2-door hardtop or convertible. The subject car does appear to be a convertible. Hard to tell if a coupe or hardtop. Looked like a hardtop to me which is why I listed it as a 1962. |

My reference lists it under the Special Series both in 1961 and 1962. No convertible model is listed for 1961. In 1962 Model 4367 as A Special Skylark convertible... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buick_Special#1961.E2.80.931963 |
