Looks like Manheim Gold would be very good for the Buyer but not the Seller!

I have seen this logo before - I think it was an item on Ebay - perhaps a match book cover or something like that - I would guess that it was in fact a Dealer.Looked a little wet back there in Hershey !

The best advice I can give is have a professional Suspension Mechanic try and pinpoint the problem and be glad to pay the shipping from St Marys Kansas or where ever it is. Coil Spring Specialties will treat you right! Good Luck ! Dick

Check the production date.

These seats are hard to find. I think 60-62 are the same but the center consoles are not the same. Email me direct if you would like more info . Dick rivsrus1@cox.net

Hi Andy ! Welcome to the Land of Buicks ! When I was 14 I bought my first car - 1934 Plymouth for 10 bucks! Wish I had it now. I am into the Rivieras myself - 65s that is - I have two but I am restoring a 61 LeSabre Conv. at this time. EMail me direct if you would like some photos - rivsrus1@cox.net . The BCA Board Meeting for Oct. will be in Rochester, its the end of the month and would be great to see you there if you can make it. If you do come please introduce yourself to me ! Would love to see your car as well. It is always a pleasure to have the younger folks participate in the chat room - please feel free to post at ant time - the rest of us are here to help one another with questions that pop up. Take care and may see you next month. Dick

Sorry for the dissapointment - on a positive note a "wood" wheel complete with horn bar, center cap and all the other components in excellent condition is worth at least 800 bucks. The Horn Bar itself is worth 200 bucks. These numbers are based on recent Ebay sales. Good Luck

The wheel you speak of was not available in 63 and it was not part of the GS package. It was just an option and it is a plastic type material - simulated wood. Dick

This is a good vendor and new to me - thanks a ton. Dick www.restorationspecialties.com

I need to buy the window run channel material. I have been unable to locate it. One collector said he found it in about 18" strips with peel and stick backing. He could not remember where he got it. I guess it was a long time ago ??? This is the channel thats inside the door on a two door HT (and others). When you put the window down the chrome edge runs down the channel . It is not a scraper - just a guide that is lined with this material. Thanks for your help. Dick rivsrus1@cox.net

If you are parting out a 61 please email me direct with the model you have. Thanks,Dick rivsrus1@cox.net

Most folks start the bid low - like 5.00 - you can put a reserve on it to protect yourself. You should have a value in mind. I think the higher the starting bid the more it will cost you to list. Starting low stimulates interest. Just my 2 cents.

I am installing power windows in my 61 LeSabre and have a question.The regulators are installed and now its time for wireing. I need to knock out the small pieces that the factory installed to fill in the holes in the door and jamb so I can run the wires and install the boot for the wires. Has anyone found an easy way to do that or do I just drill a bunch of holes ? I think they are tack welded in but not sure. Thanks in advance, Dick

Lets try again

I am saddened to hear of your Loss Lamar! I have always had German Shepherds and they also leave at a young age. I now have Cisco and Tyler, Tyler is the son of Cisco , and Cisco is six. I dread the day he passes. We are very close.I will attache pictures, the black one is Tyler. I hope that Hos helps to heal the pain. Dick Sweeney

About 10 days ago I posted the fact that I was starting an auction on Ebay for a 63 Riv. . The auction was going well with over 1800 hits when I decided to reduce the Reserve a little. That was a mistake. I didnt pay attention and hit the wrong entrys on the Ebay site and got into a lot of do-do. Bottom line - I had to cancel the auction. Lesson learned - PAY ATTENTION ! Now I have started all over again. There were about 10 bidders and if any of you were bidding I apologize for any inconvenience.
The new listing is http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...sspagename=WDVW

I want to install a fan shroud in my 61 LeSabre Non A/C car.I have the shroud - What I need to know is what do I need to support the shroud? I guess the top bracket will need to be changed to accomodate the top mounting bolt - what else holds the shroud in place? Thanks for your help!
