I'm looking to buy a sound 364 4bbl intake for my '58 Century Overseas shipping should fine for the seller. Just a reference USPS ships it ~150-175 range (max. 45lbs - and assuming it fits here?). Any other cheaper alternative is a plus :) Payment via Paypal Thanks, Jukka from Finland

I'm looking to buy following parts to my Century Coupe: - 2x Century scripts to door panels - 2x Rear armrest ashtrays. At least original lids, I have assemblies in place but on the other hand I'm not 100% if those are original. I'm located in Finland so shipping overseas should be okay. Payment via Paypal. Thanks, Jukka

I'm looking to buy following parts for my Buick Century Coupe 1958 (66R) - excellent condition halo mirror (1-2pc) - Century scripts to door panels (interior) - headliner moldings 1-2pc (interior) - ash trays rear seat arm rest Thanks, Jukka

Thanks John. I started double checking the relay and that was correct. Next thing I did was removing rust from the center of the horns (place where diaphragm contact goes) as there some left. That helped and horns became alive. As I told horn contact plate was missing so I did one by myself from thin metal. I figured out how it works and bingo - horns started working. What I don't know yet where those small electrical shocks came but those disappeared after I made contact plate for closing the circuit properly. Jukka

Hi All, By looking the '58 Buick service manual picture of horn assembly and to me it looks like I'm not having all parts in place. All I have inside (under adjustment plate) is spring and plastic insulation which goes to under adjustment plate. From manual I can see that there should be contact plate and some additional insulation. I see no one is offering those parts as reproduction. Anyone having parts car and willing to sell me all parts that are needed? Another issue: when I have all parts in place, I'll get small electronic shock when I'm pushing the horn ring. What may cause this? Relay is new and I can hear the sound when it "goes on". Actual horns are trying to start blowing but they seem not to work either. Any help in forms of information or parts needed are highly appreciated Thanks, Jukka

Hi, I'm going to install seat belts for both front and rear seats in my Buick '58. I'd appreciate help in couple of questions from those forum members who have done this trick earlier. - Some shops recommend 74" belts for front seats (just a general note) in their sites. How does it go in B58? Do I manage with 4x 60" in both front and rear installation or do I need to longer (74") ones also? - Buick did list seat belts as an optional accessory in 1958. Where/how did the factory (or dealers) installed the seat belts? Did they just drilled the hole to floor and used washer or is there a specific enforced place where to attach belts? Thanks, Jukka
