  1. How about the cheap plastic interior hardware; such as the visor mirrors?.
  2. The Chuck Wagon Diner; interesting. We had one on Gary, IN back in the day. Had no idea they were a franchise.
  3. Seems to me the positions of the clock and speedometer should be reversed; at least for visibility purposes?
  4. You may find the speaker grille on ebay. I have seen them there on occasion. I believe the hardtop rear speaker grille is the same.
  5. Amberly, if you are still looking and I have not mentioned it, I have a ride for sale that you might want to give a look. It is a 1962 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 convertible. Full details are available online, here ==> http://62olds.atwebpages.com
  6. My lift will accommodate a truck, no problem. It is an American made Mohawk A-7. I bought it used. Check out the used lift market. Good deals are available.
  7. To me size/capacity says truck?
  8. You must be, like me, a "Region Rat"? Personally I spent my time across the street at Walter & Lennertz Oldsmobile.
  9. Here are the assembly plant codes: Fourth Digit: Last Six Digits: Code Assembly Plant Production Numbers A Atlanta, GA 01001/^ C Southgate, CA K Kansas City, KS L Linden, NJ M Lansing, MI T Arlington, TX W Wilmington, DE 578 = Super 88 577 = Eighty Eight Here is a VIN Decoder link ==> https://www.v8cars.hu/oldsvin/decode.php
  10. I can tell you that this pic was taken in the early-to-mid 60s in Crown Point, Lake County, IN. The first building is the Lake County Sheriff Office. It is also the building which housed the Lake County Jail. That jail is the one from which John Dillinger. with the aid of his wooden gun, escaped in 1934. The next building is the old Lake County Courthouse.
  11. Well, my '85 Rivi convertible with the puny 307 c.i. V8 would not even begin to approach such speeds!
  12. For whatever it is worth, I owned a 1960 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday SceniCoupe with a factory three-on-the-tree. And although there most certainly were others, they were so few and far between that I have never actually seen one.
  13. Very nice! Pray tell, what are those items sticking up from the floorboard on either side of the second row seat?
  14. OK, what am I missing with regard to Westley's and jack stands?
  15. If you live in Indiana, you may not get a Studebaker license plate for your ride: https://www.nwitimes.com/news/state-and-regional/indiana/indiana-drivers-can-embrace-the-past-with-studebaker-plate/article_1b702c2a-c543-5d88-a428-25c44e67c6ad.html
  16. Pray tell what is the difference between a "gas" and "gasoline" engine, I wonder?
  17. Looks like Mom has a cig in her hand?
  18. Post your question in the Buick forum, below, for an authoritative answer.
  19. Glass bowl on top was how it was mounted on my 1955 CDV.
