  1. Today I discovered why my Delco Moraine power brake booster is having troubles, the main problem is a broken diaphragm, there is a small crack on the rubber... unluckly I haven't found a new one in the rebuilding kit I bought... does someone know where I can buy a new one or a good used one that I can use? On the schematic the part is letter U. Thanks in advance for any help, I will appreciate it a lot, that problem is keeping my almost done restoration project stuck... Tim
  2. Thank you very much for your help guys, I just finished to mount them, I also took a picture if anybody else in the future need the same help. Best Regards from Switzerland Tim
  3. Hi, I'm mounting my new bumpers to my '55 century but I have some problems to remember where do the 2 small bracket go, I've circled them on the attached picture, anybody has a better memory than mine? maybe a photo can help better, thank you. Tim
  4. Hello! I was looking online to buy 1955 century side script reproductions but I didn't find them, only roadmaster, special and other year's scripts... I have to fix and replate mines and spend a lot of money or someone know a place where to get them? Tim
  5. Hello, I'm looking for parts for my 1955 century 2dr ht... first one is the inner door handle acutator for driver part second one is the exterior stainless trim for passenger side vent window (the one signed in red on the picture) third one is the chrome trim for the dash gauge Thanks Tim
  6. ??? is this what you want for Christmas? If you hang some balls it will look like a Christmas tree ahah
  7. Thank you for the advices guys! I'm going to try in the next weeks and hope to have some results, I'll let you know Tim
  8. Thank you Willie for your explanation, do you think that if I use a heat gun to heat and soften the seal it will set easily inside the frame? Tim
  9. Hi Willie, thank you for the answer, what about your mounting advice? did you mounted the seal directly to the frame of the car or to the glass? Tim
  10. Hello! I'm mounting my back glass on a '55 buick century 2dr hardtop but I can't place it correctly, I've already tried the cord trick by placing the seal directly on the glass twice but I didn't succeed... the hard edges on the glass and the moulding clips on the top doesn't help the job... (I've tried with soapy water) What is the correct way to do the job? Greetings from Swiss
  11. At first look I don't find them but I'm going to write an email to ask, thank you Leif!
  12. Hi folks! I'm preparing the parts to mount on my doors on my 1955 Century 2dr ht, does someone know where I can buy the door rubber glass channels located at the bottom of the frame? Are them interchangeable with other GM brands? Thank you and greetings from Switzerland
  13. Right, is better more than less
  14. Mine is without power steering so I have to cut them 74" right? Thank you for the note Willie
  15. Thank you very much for the detailed answer, the diagram is perfect. Grazie mille! Yes, my Buick is a 66R, but seems to be a hard part to find, for the moment I only found one seller that has this part and it's quite expensive as I need 4 of them. Grazie mille e buona giornata. Thank you a lot and have a nice day. Tim
  16. Hi, I have a '55 buick century hardtop under construction and I have 2 question to ask. First one, I'm assembling the heater hoses but I don't find the connection scheme on the manual, can someone help me? I have to connect the transmission, the underseat heater and the 3 water pump nipples, maybe a draw can be very helpful on red are the hoses that I've already installed, other connection are missing. Second answer, I need to replace the part on the photo but I don't know the name in english (my mother language is italian ), it's located behind the front seat bench, there are some replica on sale? Thank you very much Greetings from Switzerland
  17. Ciao a tutti, my name is Timothy Stark, I live in the southern part of Switzerland (near Italy) my mother language is italian but I also speak french and a little bit of german, I'm 23 years old and since I got my driving license I'm driving US cars, first a 2000 chevy camaro that my father had, then with some hard working I bought my first car, a 1988 pontiac trans am, and on sepember 2013 I bought my first oldtimer, a 1955 buick century 2dr ht to start a restoration project. Now I'm in the mounting part of the project, engine, tranny and paint are done. Greetings from Lugano!
