Morgan Wright Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Bob's Automobilia only goes back to mid 1920's. CARS goes only to 1930. Other sources that go farther back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Morgan, I do not think you will find a major supplier. I suggest if you are searching, just post what you are looking for on here. Someone, if they have the part, should respond. There are a number of "parts collectors" that may be able to help you. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Shaw Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Dean Tryon's 16-18 Buick newsletter is also an excellent resource... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Schramm Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Morgan, What are you working on and what are you looking for? Post some pictures of your car. We love pictures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan Wright Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 http://hyzercreek.com/movebuick.htm That's pictures of me unloading the car. I picked up two 1918 Model E-49's. One is together, sat in a barn in Ohio for 80 years, the other is just parts because it sat in a field in Illinois since 1926 and all the wood rotted away, just rusty sheet metal panels, wood spokes all gone, but the engine and drive train look great and lots of other parts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Sheehan Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 The unload pictures are neat. Just you'd like to see a picture of what I have in the shop for repairs this month. 1920 Buick Touring Model K-Six-45. Yours looks like a Model K-Six-49. I'm looking for new ball joint rod ends for the spark advance rods and the throttle rod. I've been looking for several months, but to no luck. I hope your restoration is smooth.

Morgan Wright Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 Yeah the K-Six-49 looks a lot like my E-Six-49. Same car 2 years apart. Same motor the 242 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMaster Carr sells several sizes of ball pivot linkages that you can adapt. https://www.mcmaster.com/#end-links/=1ad7e1l https://www.mcmaster.com/#end-links/=1ad7j7g I also have a new throttle/spark gear set for the bottom of the column if you need that.

Morgan Wright Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 These guys have parts for my engine, or at least the 1924 version. I bet some of them fit mine: https://hagensautoparts.com/1924/buick/101 It's the 242 engine anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
