lancemb Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Hi, I am a little confused by your post - the Special/Century are the same and the Super/Roadmaster are the same but the Special/Century does not interchange with the Super/Roadmaster. If you have a Special, then only a housing or assembly from a Special or Century will fit your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buwreck Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 sorry, i have a special, i found a tail light that will fit my car but it has more ribs on the side and a chrome piece up the middle of the lens, which is pretty cool looking and if i found a match to it i would run it, i thought it was from a century but it must be from a super/roadmaster... looks like it would fit......

lancemb Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Yes, the one you describe is from a Super/Roadmaster. I have never tried swapping these; if you can verify that they do indeed swap size-wise I have several extras I was going to put on Ebay in the near future anyway. If you are interested just send me an email and let me know which side you need and I'll let you know what I have and send pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 4 bufords Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 the super /roadmaster is larger than the special/century tail lights.i had a small series light on my super and was too small,looked bad.have the correct ones ready to go on.4 bufords from ct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick man Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Never thought about switching these things from model to model. But I had always thought that they would be too small for the Super/Roadmasters. Everything else is as well, except for the corner bumper pieces I believe.
