thanks guys

all in all not a whole lot around as per say like the 68 charger we just did for a customer. Plenty around of those.

just seems like Mac told Ladd that there were like 9 of the 57S and 11 of the 57

yes going to talk to the owners and see what books they feel will be an asset to not only them but us too.

thank you. as far as the gas gauge I don't need pictures just if anyone knows that would be great.

what about any of the books that are listed in the buick heritage alliance?

john Ladd bought the wiring harness from harnesses unlimited. It came with numbers on the wire ends and notes to where they hook up with. Only problem I have found is the gas gage as it says left and right sides but the gage is top/bottom so I am guessing rigtht now at that. thanks corey

Bob I called my jobber for mechanic parts and the latest he goes back for numbers is 1946. Here are the numbers he gave me that he thinks they are. headlamps 6006(can buy 2 each) tail lamps 1154(can get all 4 by themselves) dome 82 (have to buy pack of 10 only) instruments 55(same as dome light) Park BP1154(can get them by themselves too) Do these numbers look right to you? thanks corey

Looking for the dual side mount covers on a 32 buick 57S. Also need the chrome/alum trim on them too.

Just wondering as I think Mac told the owners son some time ago that like 9 were left of the 57s'. Is that still true or how many are out there? thanks corey

Just wondering if there is any rear bumpers out there for this car? We have the end pieces for a regular 57 and the center section froma we believe a chevy that has the same profile just is maybe an 1/8 wider, Thinking of making one out of the 2 then sending out to rechrome it. corey

Can somone list the actual part numbers for all the lights? Headlamps,parklamps,dash,dome,tail lights? Any that I missed? thanks corey

Trying to finish up the wiring and the harness set up we got from harness unlimited. It says that there is a current limit relay. We have a box that came with the car that has an Ohmite vitreous Enameled resistance unit. Is that the same thing? Stupid question I know. On a side note this car came out of the twin cities in boxes. It as far as I know had been apart since 1970 or better. Trying ti figure things out from questions,common sence,pictures and just good old plain luck has been fun. thanks corey

Just wondering if anyone has any pictures of the engine area on either side. JUst need to see areas like where the wiring runs on the passenger side,the fan/radiator area where the valve mounts for the flappers,wiring on the drivers side,wiring to the head lamps/park lamps,horn set up/wiring,carb linkage. All this stuff is things we didn't think of having the customer take pictures when they went to the meet in minesota a few years ago. Thank you corey

Looking for a carborator for a 32 buick 57S with a straight eight in it. Contact me and I will put you in touch with the customer.

Thanks. I forgot to tell that this is a straight eight engine. Not sure if that is important or not.

there is a hole in the top of the tank. Is that where a sending unit would go? Has screw holes like a sending unit?

numbers off the carb 102-54 1246600 65-25 then some patent numbers 10-264 any of these numbers help?

Does the wiring come out on the left and right sides of the firewall on 32 57S's? Any pics would help. Thanks corey

Does anyone have pictures or a wiring diagram on a the end of the steering colum on a 57S? Thanks corey

Can you buy the chrome trim on the outer edge of the running boards on a 32 buick 57S/ Thanks corey

Where can you find sending units for a 32 buick 57S? Thanks corey

Trying to find a carb for a 32 57S. Where can I find one?
