[Replacing my stock wheel lug bolts with chrome]

Looking for advice/suggestions on where to locate new chrome lug bolts for my 1953 Buick Special Riviera. I see Amazon has 12mmx1.25 or 12mmx1.50...are these correct? The threading on those look coarse. Mine are fine. Thank you

[Seeking advice '53 Buick rear lever arm]

man, I'm having a tough time getting the upper part of the rear lever arm extension out of the bracket that is on the frame. These are tapered bolts which were obviously designed to hold on tight! Last night it was a bitch, but I managed to get the passenger side off after drilling out the bolt (which I'm trying to avoid for the other side). I already pre-sprayed. I am considering putting heat on it, but thought I would post to see if there is an easier method that I have not thought of? I am a regular Joe, and am doing this in my garage with basic tools. Any advice/suggestions are appreciated. Thank you! Johnny Rock

What!? Oh man

[1953 Buick Special 45R where is my vent (rear end)]

Where the heck is my vent located on my '53 Special rear? I took off the drain plug and it hissed like opening a bottle of soda. My vent is obviously clogged. Thanks

['53 Buick rear bumper fitting question]

1953 Buick Special rear bumper: can the '53 Roadmaster, or Super rear bumper bolt -on to the Special without modifications? Also, will any other year/make model fit '53? such as 52 or 54 without modification? How about Chevy/Pontiac, etc??

thanks for any knowledge that can be given to me.

[odd request (Buick dealer placard)]

Here is an original placard that was mounted above my rear trunk emblem. 1953 special Riviera.. aluminum. Anyone know of a company/person that may be able to restore this? I'd like to keep the history attached to my car. The placard reads: Goodwin Buick Sumter, SC.

Thank you.

[1953 Buick 45R straight 8 carb issues]

The solution was right under my nose. I was too busy looking at the carb when I should have been looking at the upper part of the throttle linkage. The arm is currently set up to work the Carter. Simply removing the linkage and turning it 180 degrees, it will be ready for the Stromberg! I feel stupid not seeing it right away. See pic
