Welcome to the Collectible Buick -Technical and Restoration Forum.

Post questions and share your knowledge of chassis, engine, body, and trim technical and restoration issues here. Covers all years of Collectible Buicks, 1903 to present -- except anything so new as to still be under factory warranty!

Be sure to include the year and model of the car and the general nature of the question in the Subject Line. This makes it easier for others to do a ?Search? later in case they have a similar question.

I have a 63 Wildcat with the 445 power pack. This car came with a Carter carburetor but unfortunately that carburetor is no longer on the car. Any idea where I might find one. I know that the Rochester are around but that just will not do. Thanks.

Technical Q - 1960 Buick Electra 225

Gentleman (& Ladies).

I noted with much interest a 1960 Buick Electra 225 convertible at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale a couple of days ago & have a question related to how you Buick guys handle a certain restoration technique. The stainless steel trim-work along the car's lower level is much like that found on my 1955 Packard 400 (2dr HT). Packard enthusiasts call it 'Reynolds wrap' and it adorns 1955 & 1956 senior Packards. My question is how best to accomplish the restorative process to ensure that the black paint gets in the "valleys" and the high points (peaks) remain stainless. Thoughts and leads are much appreciated appreciated.
