Picture = a thousand words in this case! Two pictures = 2 thousand words! you'll have a much better chance to ID them if with can see them.

With only 1 bolt left in the manifold you might be able to rock the manifold back and forth and get it to free up. Kind of twist the manifold pivoting iy on the bolt.

Being shared with A-bodies makes them MUCH easier to find! While they are adaptable they are shaped to fit the floor differently.

Doors interchange 54-55-56 on Olds 88 and Buick Special/Century series as a group. Or Olds 98 and Buick Roadmaster as a group. Pontiac and Chevrolet doors of the era are shared.

Was a time when a car line was dropped the resale value would drop.
Packards, Edsels, Sudebakers and Corvairs bevame very cheap used cars as they were discontinued.

What's your location? If you can pick up in Austin,Tx. I have a 68 GS hood one that has surface rust for 150.00. Or will trade for 66 442/Cutlass/F-85 or 67 Delmont 425 88 or 66 gto parts I may want.

Too late now but if you remove the rear tires it gives you access to reach over the top of the frame to put a box end wrench on the upper shock bolt.

Not a thing wrong with your bargain price, it's apparent that nobody that wants them has looked at your ad!

Open the driver side door and look where the door hinges bolt to the cowl, the vin tag will be between the upper and lower hinges.

Try Mark in Tx, he has them. 512-303-0833

Yes it will. Henry

This car more than likely had headers on it in the past which could explain the newer exhaust manifolds. Henry

Call Mark in Texas at 512-303-0833. He's parting out over 30 64-67 Specials/Skylarks/GS's.

I have a friend that just sold a '85 Olds Delta 88 4dr air conditioned, power windows and seats, wire wheel covers and 70,000 miles. Was a very clean, 1 owner always garaged Texas car. He advertised locally asking 7,500 and sold quickly(less than a week of advertising) for 6,250 and had quite a few calls and lookers at the car with at least one early offer of 5,000.

That's a 1960 Buick.

I wonder how many 4 dr BelAirs are really left after decades of being used as parts cars for Convert and 2dr restorations!

Two completly different rear bumpers.

It will never be a show car, but it makes a good addition to my Buick
collection.
Don't sell your car short!
I went to a car show at a San Antonio Buick dealer and there was identical twin to your car on display! It was hands down the best 1988 SW there.

Sorry no help on that one, I aquired about 50 glasses from a repair shop clean-up but mid '60's-'70's Superior and CB hearse and ambulances comprised the stash.
Thanks for asking, Henry
-
I checked my glass today and it's much larger, I'm thinking know it may be mid '70's ambulance where they eliminated the vent windows. Sorry! Henry

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Contrary to what most people think the 1966 Sfire did Not have the big valves that the 442 and Toro engines had...this can be checked in the factory manual where they show specs on the engines....The factory rated the 66 Sfire 425 at 375 HP...I believe the Sfire engines had a drill spot on a pad on the block left side front...looks like someone started to drill a hole there and stopped just as it made the beveled circle.....the Sfire 425's I have have this drill spot...The sfire had a slightly smaller dish in the piston than the regular 425's for a bit more compression. The sfire had a hotter cam than a regular 425 and could be cross referenced. </div></div>
Just broke out my '66 parts books and you are right! Thanks for the correction.

Find a '69 or '70 model 88 or 98 with disc brakes and get the spindles, rotors, caliphers, power booster, master cylinder and metal lines. You'll be converting to a split master cylinder as opposed to the single one currently on your car.
Stay away from the '67-'68 parts as the were troublesome dual piston caliphers.
Keep in mind you will have to go with 15" wheels fit over the caliphers.

The engine was painted red, should have an engine unit # stamped on the front of the right side head with NxxxxxS to ID as a 10.5 compression 370 rated horse power. Should have factory dual exhaust with a left exhaust manifold with the letter S cast in it. Also has larger intake valves.
A 66 Olds 442 TriCarb manifold will fit your car.

I've removed some by wedging 2 screwdriver blades in the groove and screwing them off.
