Technically it's a Sport Wagon not a Skylark with the vista roof and the longer wheelbase. Also rode on a boxed frame unlike similar Special wagons which used 4dr chassis and unboxed frames for their flat roof.
I don't think so but I've never measured a set. They very well could be. Honestly I think the 64-65 Buick A-bodies were the best looking A-bodies ever and weirdly I like the 4drs as much if not more than their 2dr and 2dr Sedan brethren.

I was not aware that a long wheelbase A body frame existed prior to '68. Also, reference in the ad to a Wildcat engine made me thing if might be a B-body. A little research shows that Buick used the Wildcat 375 label on both the 401 nailhead and the 4bbl 340.
Yeah, I was thinking someone swapped in a later 4bbl 340 since the top dog engine in those wagons was a 4bbl 300, the Wildcat 355. Supposedly the Vista Cruiser and the Sport Wagon rode on a 2in longer frame. I can tell you that in person the cars are longer side by side but I didn't look at the wheels to tell if they weren't the same, going off of passed down info there.
