buick840 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) - door striker panel driver side (my teeth are broken) If you mean the striker panel that fits to the body pillar then I'm pretty sure they are available new from Bobs Automobilia, Cars Inc and maybe Fusic's as well. These ones are on ebay nowhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-1956-57-1958-1959-BUICK-CENTURY-SUPER-SPECIAL-DOOR-STRIKER-PLATES-PAIR-NEW-/231270732464?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35d8cf52b0&vxp=mtr- two plastic door handle washer They sell these too Edited August 16, 2014 by buick840 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Phillips Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I probably have the rear quarter chrome piece, if you are talking about the straight one. There is also a curved one over the rear wheel opening. Which one do you need?Pete Phillips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick55 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 is it really so difficult to find these parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m.kozlowski Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Unfortunately so.Trim sometimes could be found on ebay, but headlamp rings are very hard to find in decent state. I'm thinking about pouring them in a foundry from aluminium... not quite expensive in Poland. I have already 5 pieces and only one is in rechromable state.

buick55 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 i am checking ebay every day since 3 month but nothing! for driver side i can get about 6 pieces, but not one for the passenger side the most important part for me is the side trim...

buick5563 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 is it really so difficult to find these parts? I am constantly searching for all of the parts you have listed.The curved piece needs to be straightened and buffed. The headlight trim needs to be re-chromed. Unless your piece is missing, fix what you've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
