56buickinga

I did stop by not long after I bought it. You thanked me for "saving" you from going to look at it.

My 69 Lesabre was built in the Atlanta plant. Sold new in Cornelia Ga sold in Cleveland Ga and now resides in Tennessee. I tried to get it back to no avail. The letters are nice and you shouldn't have issue selling them.

How much for four dog dish caps?

How much for the dog dish and are there 4 of them?

I have a 1955 Century 322 with dynaflow attached for sale. It has the 4bbl wcfb the secondaries are seized and it has the complete air breather with thermostat bracket. no generator. no spark plug covers. everything else appears to be there. running condition unknown $500 asking plus shipping. Was keeping it as parts for my 56 but I got a cj and would rather jeep parts have.

Even if it was free I'd almost pass on that. As soon you tried to winch it on the trailer I suspect it would rip into pieces. That thing is quite rough.

I was working in a different town came across a Buick in a yard. I left a note to find out more about it. Owner called and said it was for sale. I have just bought a truck and a trip to Colorado so I'm not in the market but said I would pass on the info. 72 Skylark 2D hardtop 350/350 150k or so gsx stripes and spoiler gs sport hood silver white interior bench seat column shift has damage in the drivers front. headlight buckets fender and I think the hood may have been touched too. i only got one picture as I had not talked to the owner and didn't want to go rooting around in someone's yard. price is asking $6500 and location is Buford ga close to the mall of ga. if anyone is interested I will pm the owners contact info. I'm not posting here due to respect to him.

I like the thought of buying this and making a 56 4d convertible. Maybe fabricating a fiberglass removable hardtop. Be a great start and wouldn't feel bad about cutting up a good car.

Every hood you ever find is rusted. I was not around when they were new but I suspect they were rusting on the dealer showrooms. Good cars but parts are almost impossible to find. Other than drive train parts shared with jeeps. Also they are unibody cars so if the body is rusted it can be structurally compromised.

i have one of those for my Buick too. It doesn't say tabor just a generic one.

I can look on my 55 parts car. It will be toward the end of the week. If you don't find one before then I will update the thread here and pm you too.

I spoke with ron yesterday Wednesday or Thursday is the deadline for the 56. Reasonable prices and easy to deal with.

I have one in a 55 century. Unsure if it works or not. If it will work for your car I can pull it for you.

I went through my nailhead in the drive way. Yes, the same driveway I painted it in too. There is probably a fair amount of dust and gravel in my nailhead and it does ok. The 283 in the Chevy will probably be next though I don't think it'll be as involved. Probably just a gasket kit and paint.

Too much rust in mine for decent pictures or I would help.

My vac wipers work great when it has appropriate pressure. So I can take or leave the double action. Plus the elec vac pump would be a suitable conversion. The 57 timing cover conversion sounds like a good way to bypass the double action pump and my oreillys can get the 57 pump. Funny thing about money it does seem to dominate a lot of decisions. Thanks for the advice

I'm looking into a fuel pump for my 56 322. I know it's a double action. Cars did not have one they have a rebuild service. Kater has one for $160 plus shipping that's a bit more than I want to pay right now. I rebuilt mine mine many years ago when the vacuum diaphragm ripped and failed to produce vacuum at night in the rain best timing of course. After the rebuild the fuel pump was sporadic and would fail to pump at random and I had no vacuum at all. So I put a little elec pump on the fender and has worked flawlessly until the other day. The replacement costs 50$ now so I'm looking to go back to an appropriate set up. So so if there is a good option to get a replacement I am not finding that'd be good. If there is a single action fuel pump that is easier to get I can use a 12v elec vacuum pump for the wipers. I may go back into it again if it warms up. I've got a core from a parts car I can send off to be rebuilt also.

I have a double belt water pump pulley but it's off a 55 if it will work I'd let it go for $25 plus shipping.

3/4 uploaded the one that didn't upload was taken from my iPhone the other day and wouldn't load. I emailed it to my iPad and it wouldn't load. But pictures from my iPad load fine

Seeing as I only have one I say if solid then sold

I'm looking to get my 55 4 bbl set up rebuilt for my Buick. Does anyone here have any recommendations for vendors or reputable places to have this done? what should a reasonable price to have this done be around?

More pics

I removed just the tumbler but I could get the ignition switch to go with it. It will be this weekend before I can get a picture of the switch and bezel.

I have a set of 58 hupcaps for sale. Three are in good shape with no dents or dings the center caps are faded. The fourth one has a ding on the center ring by the crest. It also has black over spray on it. 50$ OBO plus shipping for these.

I have a complete set of locks from a 55 century. Two door locks, trunk lock, glove box latch, and ignition tumbler all match and have an original key with the Buick crest. I'd like $100 OBO that includes shipping. I do not have pictures of the trunk lock, glove box, or ignition but they are there.
