Pete NO! I am out on the West Coast. Wondering what the one in Ipswich sold for? I really think I got a steal for the condition it is in and what I paid for it. You luck out once in a while. Unless something shows up which I don't think it will, I am totally satisfied!! I can send a pix to the club if they are interested. Wonder if the club has information on this Roadmaster?? Surely they do. Would like to know more history if possible. I can provide Vin #s etc or whatever.

Pete thank you very much for the reply. Great reply, THANKS! Lee

Just acquired a '49 Roadmaster to my collection. Have two things that need to be taken care of and wonder if any of you can give me any advice? One item is that the fuel gage does not work. I suspect perhaps the sending units but when crawling under the gas tank I did not see a wire anywhere going to the sending unit. Question is: to establish if it is the sending unit, where can I find the wire that goes to the gauge? Also the speedometer is not working. How difficult is it to disconnect the cable from it to see if it is turning? If turning how difficult is it to remove the speedo and get it repaired? Otherwise the auto seems to be in quite good original condition. Original engine that still runs strong etc. Paint & upholstery is good. I have ordered a couple of books on Ebay which may help me but anxious to get everything fixed. Lee

Can't seem to find what the bulb # is suppose to be for the above Dodge. Did a search but came up with no answer. Can anyone help?

Again I say cool it!! Don't you guys have something better to do? If you are restoring, go back to it so you get something done. I am a very busy person and cannot spend time with trivia such as yours. Will not respond any more to all this crap! Much better things to do. Again this is between Pete & I and he does not need your help I'm sure. Lee

Okay jpage. Will take your apology. But just to mention although I have been on many, many, auto Forums, I can't remember when I was so badly lambasted really over nothing that others should not be involved in. There is only one person and a really nice fellow, who I was dealing with. It is all between him and I, others have no reason to be involved. Lee Noga

Yes Pete. If I owe anyone an apology it would be you, no others. Don't know what it is, or why all these others are beating up on me? None of their business I feel! Sorry for the delay but I fully intend to reimburse you for your trouble and attention you gave to me. Would $15 or $20 cover your time etc. Don't know what it cost for you to send. Lee

I am sorry but I'm not sure about your original post otherwise I would have replied. What was your original post again? Lee

Does anyone have information on what model Carter Carbs go on a 1965 Buick Wildcat Convertable and also on a 1964 LaSabre Sedan?? Any info would surely be of help. Thanks/Lee Noga (509)967-2723

I do not want to do a full upholstery restoration at this time. Can you tell me if there is anyone who can supply seat covers for the D2 model? I have tried to call a few places with no success. Have any of you done this? Lee

Hope you have one. Thanks for the reply. Lee

Badly need a trunk handle for my sedan in any condition. Can be w/o lock or lock dis-functional. Does anybody have one laying around by chance" Lee Noga auto.nut@ charter.net (509)967-2723

I am presently trying to find an electrical wiring diagram for my 1963 Electra. I thought maybe I had one enlarged and printed but can't be sure I have one. I have one diagram that I penciled the name Buick on it and it looks like a Buick diagram but confused. On the diagram, it below states Figure 11-29 B-C-E Series Electrical Color Diagrams. Up above it states Wiring Circuit Diagrams page 11-177. Not sure where I copied this diagram from. Too many years and too many cars I guess. Wondering what year and if it is even Buick?? The Buick cars go by models with the wildcat being a 4600 series and the 4800 being the Electra Series. Does not indicate which year however. The wiring diagrams seems to be designated by series, such as a A-B-C-E. Can anyone straighten me out?? I have no voltage to the coil when I place the ignition switch to ON. I am not getting any spark. Wish to find the wiring diagram. I think the coil wire comes right from the switch, so do I have a bad switch or is there some other possibility?? Lee Noga

Do not have original rubbers but sure there were some. Can anyone help me out on how the transmission was supported? There are two long bolts which are bolted to the smaller upper bolts on the rear of the transmission. There is a plate mounted to the bottom of the chassis rails. It has two large holes in it that measure 7/8". Did they perhaps use some kind of donut rubber mounts on the vertical bolts? Any help from anyone would surely be appreciated. Lee Noga Help badly needed. Want to get this girl back on the road. Doing a body off restoration.

I have a grill part I think but not sure where it goes. I am thinking it is from the D2 Dodge that I own but not sure now where it goes anymore. Can anyone identify it? Lee Noga

Well thank you Jim for the info. I will have to investigate and see if I am able to tackle the job. I am in my 80's and don't have that much time left. I have some bottom fins that are pretty much gone. I thought perhaps I could somehow cut them out and put new ones in and tack weld behind the cross pieces. Do you think that would be a solution since as you say separating the stainless from the fins would be a tough job. Lee

I agree totally! Wonder why they created such a complicated grill?

My email is: auto.nut@charter.net

Thank you for the reply. Yes a very insurmountable task. When you mention masking off the stainless strips, are you talking about painting the metal strips on which the stainless is mounted on? It appears that masking, would be a very difficult and a time consuming task etc. To ask anyone to repair a grill like this would be very time consuming and spendy. Lee

Excellent Dave. Yes I figured I would have to install a new kit etc to put it in shape. The one I have, the throttle froze up so bad there is no way to get it loose. Tried everything. Stuck in the oven, then the freezer. Soaked in Carb Cleaner for a week. Nothing worked. So if you have one, please let me know what you want for it. I want to get my Wildcat back on the road again. I let my son use it and he ran into the back of an auto and pretty much destroyed my whole front end. I was able to find another front end and installed it. Thus getting closer. Need now to get the engine running again. Has been sitting for several years. Just Me/Lee

Does anyone have a partial grill which I could perhaps use some of the pieces to repair my grill? I do not need the center piece. Lee

Need the above carb for my '65 Wildcat Convertible. Does anyone have a spare they could part with?
