    1964 Riviera General Interior Stuff

    in Buick Riviera

    Posted

    So, the reason why Clark's catalog says "1965 Custom will not fit 1965 Standard seat and the Standard will not fit Custom" is the seats foam shape only ? Or something else ?

    I would like to convert my 65 Standard interior to Custom, I have all the trim, panels, etc, from the donor car, but not the seats.

    Boattail door handle - reproduction ?

    Wow - Nice - wonder how long that has been on the market?

    I think not so long, or even they are released just now - I am hunting (actually "I was", in such case) for some used handles, to have a spare due to a known problem of breaking. And I just have got the notification from Ebay today, about those.

    Used handles was very often on Ebay for something like $100, but I was lucky to get some for $35-$50 price range. However, I could pay $120 for a new one, like for the repro above.

    Update (see edit history)

    Looks like I have the same issue as Ken Green has described in the first post. I can't log in, I need to reset the password, then I can log in. But after I logout, I can not log in anymore. Then again resetting the password helps.

     

    Update: I have changed my forum display name (option allowed once per 30 days in the profile setting). Additionally I have changed an email address linked to my profile. And now logout and login works. Not sure which change solved the problem (shouldn't have done both in the same time ...), but it is OK now.

    I am using a hand vacuum pump to create vacuum and to monitor if it holds it. I am connecting it to the different components or systems (like vent flaps actuators) one by one,  to shoot the problem.

    George-Your construction is jaw dropping. While we are all complaining about the cost of stick frame buildings and tin sheds, you my friend have built the replacement for the NORAD complex at Cheyenne Mountain. If Trump keeps throwing Tomahawks and it gets crazy, you are safe. PRL

     

    Thanks Pete :-). Idea was to build something that will fit the landscape and will not damage nice surrounding view we have. We had to demolish a bit one side of a small hill and to build the garages in that place there. Heavy construction was necessary to hold the ground so it will not push (or worse slide down) on the garage back wall...
