  1. Thank you for the info I will give them a try
  2. Ok, I finally got a pair of front fender park/turn signal lights but I need some info if possible In the picture provided the arrows point to what appears to be a *lens* that sits before the bulb I'm needing to know if this piece is needed/required for proper operation (light visibility), does if focus the light and if it is needed where can I find replacement pieces. One of these *lenses* was completely shattered and if it is needed for the light to function properly then I need to replace it. The image is obviously the good one and as stated in the image one side is flat and the other convex Front side is convex, back side is flat Any help is greatly appreciate
  3. I am looking for 2 front fender park/turn signal lights, I found a pair on eBay and bid on them but eBay didn't register my bid so I lost them, I also need to know if maybe Cadillac, Olds, Pontiac, or Chevrolet will work as well if anyone knows, I know that some of the parts and pieces are interchangeable just not sure about these, I would obviously like the ones that go to a Buick but if another brand will work and look good I can go that route as well. Thank you for any assistance and/or direction that you can provide I can be reached here obviously but I'm an over-the-road Truck Driver and only get to check this once I'm home for my day and a half reset on hours but I can also be contacted at hizson.dr@gmail.com any day of the week Thank you again David
  4. Sorry it's taken so long to get back with you ... I drive truck over-the-road and only get 2 days off when I'm in town ... Do you know how much the fenders weigh so I can figure out shipping cost? I'd need to let my wife know what the cost might be and Mr. 1939 Buick ... are those 39 running board brackets interchangeable with the 1940 Buick Special? Thank you gentlemen ... I'll try and keep an eye for any replies ... I'm off today 10/1/18 for doctor appointments so I'll check back later
  5. Thanks 36threewindow I'll check it out ... I found a guy here in Vegas that will make my boards for me so when they're done I go and look for this product
  6. I found a guy here in Las Vegas that is going to fabricate some running boards for me and he's going to make the mounts as well ... will post pics when he is finished ... thanks for the input and info I appreciate it
  7. Thanks guys for the replies ... Sorry I'm so late responding ... I'm an over-the-road truck driver ... (its my retirement job) but stooge ... that is exactly the route I was thinking of going ...... I have some melamine sheets that will work perfect for patterns and then I'll see if I can get a tin bender to bend them for me ... I was told byu the gentleman who built the car that the running boards are called *Free Floating* and the holes for the bolts are in the frame I'll just need to find some way of mounting them .... Thanks again gentlemen and I'll keep you updated
  8. Hope I'm in the right spot for this ... I'm new here folks just found this site yesterday ... I'm also new to owning a pre-war car I recently purchased a 1940 Buick Special .. lots of learning going on now ... The pictures below are of my car ... I bought this car 3 months ago just as you see it but as you can also see there are no running boards and the car just doesn't look complete to me without them ...... I have looked online ... I have looked in a book that I have called *Interchangeable Parts for Buick ... Olds ... Pontiac ... 1929 - 1952* ...... I have contacted running board builders but my searches have been unfruitful to find any running boards for this particular year of vehicle I am hoping that there might be someone who can offer some assistance or maybe direction in finding a decent set of running boards ... my last option will be to make a pattern and to find a tin bender here in Las Vegas if that is the route I have to go ...... Any assistance would be greatly appreciated I forgot ... Does anyone know of a site that can give me info on this car through the VIn number? Thanks again David
