Hi Everyone,

finished the mammoth restoration project in great time.

have attached some images.

 

Question.

the propeller shaft center cross bearing is under the cross brace, should it be up ? seems too low at the moment

right now there is no space to shift it upwards

and when we received the barn find car it was this way only

 

any one can help me with pictures of a limousine underside to understand better, so if i have to shift it upwards i can get a better understanding

 

Thanks in advance

Depends on what you need --- mechanical parts --- Master Cylinder,  All SIX (6) Wheel Cylinders, Brake Hoses, Brake Shoes, etc., etc. --- that would be me --- Always best to simply call me--- 516 - 485 - 1935.... 

I also have a good bit more for that vehicle, but strictly NEW and N.O.S. parts....

 

For cosmetic parts --- the used world --- fenders, grilles, moldings, lenses, etc. --- there are NO " good " sources --- stating what you need or want in here, may produce a phone call or two.....

Mostly trims and cosmetic and electrical fittings

Trunk light is right without a cover. And Gas tank filler neck is open too. 

 

As for the sill plate, the one in my 56 Super is also flat.  But don't go by that for the 55 Roadmaster.  Hope someone chimes in with the correct answer on that.

 

 

thanks John

 

shes now nearing completion and should be complete in a few days hopefully

[1955 Buick Roadmaster Convertible]

HI Guys,

Rear trunk light

as you can see from the picture the rear trunk bulb is exposed , is this how it should be or should there be a cap on it..please advise

 

fuel cap inside

as you can see in the picture , there is a gap around the fuel pipe coming from the trunk and the the body fender inside, should there be a rubber around this?

[1955 Buick Roadmaster Convertible]

well we have gone a bit bizarre , but hoping that it will look good.

 

Final color combination will be copper above and cream below

 

still need to figure whether to use a golden tan or cream top ...

 

need some help: the chassis in the engine bay, should it be a semi glossy black or a glossy black. ?? need to know this

 

Earl: Sir, thank you very much, but managed to get the locating pin from Windsofchange and luckily my dash is also being  reconditioned, so eagerly awaiting. Wishing you a speedy recovery sir.
