  1. Not rare but a great color, Have a Healthy Eldorado New Year !
  2. WTB a 1953 -1959 Cadillac Eldorado. Finders fee gladly paid.
  3. Marty, that is what I thought, just wanted to make sure while I have them apart for new rivets. Thanks again.
  4. Rob, when I looked at some skylarks for sale on line they all had black hinges, then I saw the one you pointed out and saw they plated theirs so that is why I am hoping one of the 53 guys can give a definite answer, thanks for the help.
  5. Just wanted to make sure before I paint them, 1953 Buick hood hinges and the springs were painted black, not cadmiun plated correct ?
  6. Quick question, wasnt the factory trunk insulation more of a tan color then black ?
  7. Looking to buy a yellow or red 1953 Eldorado and a 1959 Eldorado any color . Prefer a nice car or one to restore.
  8. John, Thanks for the numbers, I will call them both. NTXS I sent you a pm. Thanks for the replies and I will let you know if I find one.
  9. Looking for a nice solid superbird to restore. Thanks.
  10. Looking to buy a pair of the metal retainers for the front kick panels on a 53 Skylark, I believe they are the same on all 2 door models. They are the thin metal strips that screw to the cowl door post area that the front kick panels slip into. If you have a set in good shape let me know. Thanks.
  11. Al, sounds about right. I took the one without the line off of a 53 motor myself. I also have an early car here with the early crankshaft pulley on it. I will use the one without the line. If anybody needs any 53 buick 4 door rear fenders or doors let me know , I am running out of room. Thanks
  12. I have 2 crankshaft harmonic balancer that both came off a 53 buick v -8 engine. They look identical , have different numbers stamped on them. My question is why does one have a timing line mark and the other is plain ? If the timing mark is on the flywheel why does one have a mark on it ? Thanks.
  13. Anybody ever have any Mandarin Red mixed up for a 53 ?
  14. Al, maybe I can post a picture and the measurements to I. D. it, Thanks.
  15. Anyone know the correct number for a 53 v8 flywheel ? Trying to determine if I have the correct one. Thanks.
  16. Will call you monday, I will take the doors, roof bows and cover. Thanks
  17. I would like to buy the doors top and cover. Thanks 313-399-4849
  18. Looking for a real nice set of exhaust manifolds for a 1953 Buick V-8 for a Skylark, need a set that is not all pitted. rwchatham@gmail.com Thanks.
  19. Al, thanks this hood is not being cooperative. Thanks again .
  20. Does anyone have a copy of the service bulletin about the hood adjustment on a 53 buick. There must be someway to get it to raise up in the rear quicker when opening so it does not dive into the door and fender. Thanks.
