  1. Look here (the opposition to Bobs') Brake Master Cylinder 1939 39 Buick Special & Century NEW | eBay
  2. One of the reasons I suggested walking into these places: better service. Some guys will just give you 50 to 100 mm of the stuff:- not worth the hassle of an invoice, especially is you mention its for your own old car. Yep: a lot of places have a min delivery charge $15 to $25. They send by courier bag or truck (not Australia post). Buying $10 or or $1000 delivery is still $20. I use this at times to get items from WA suppliers overnight to take advantage of the time difference. And delivery is still $20, just the same as getting from the next suburb. Tucks web site was better before they enhanced it Reece's are just a plumbing wholesaler. Blackwoods have a vast range with young guys on the phone/counter. You need to know their internal part number. These are on line and they also have a good thick printed catalog Hope you get want you need
  3. Tucks are good supplier [my favorite: I buy piping gaskets by the hundred]. Or try Blackwoods, James Walker, Klinger, or agaus.com.au. Look in yellow pages for gaskets & packing. Bearing shops also can sell packing. Best to walk into these places with your pump and try to talk to someone with behind the counter grey hair (experienced) . Do not go to car part places.
  4. Welcome to the forum Casting number is not the Buick part number. Sometimes it is:- most times it is not Brake Master cylinder Group 4.650 part 5450320 1939 S40 special S60 Century and 1940 S40 S50 S60 S70 [s = series] Try Dave Tacheny (he should give me a discount as I refer him so often) Area number is 763 now, not 612 From The Largest Vintage Buick gallery on the web - PreWarBuick.com While the first 3 to reply to your request are '39 team member's, we do like 40's (but not as much) And we like photos of straight 8's
  5. Email sent For a "beater" 6v battery try a tractor repair or sales business. Should not be too hard in your area
  6. Thanks for coming back to the forum. As the car is in Delaware a local member of Buick Club of America perhaps can give you advise. If you are going to keep the car join the BCA. Click on the link above in my signature The car is worth a million. But not in dollars:- more like in cents. Just because its old & little used does not mean it worth mega dollars. A limited market for these type of cars.
  7. For comparison here is what is available in Victora , Australia Vplates.com.au - Custom Plates by VicRoads | - Vplates Home A lot of options all for a price http://www.vplates.com.au/uploads/File/pdfs/Custom_Plates_Online_Price_List_Feb_2012.pdf
  8. Another spammer. NEVER click these links: you never now where it may go or what it does to your computer Use the red triangle on the left to RBP report bad post. I have reported Moderators do a good job deleting these
  9. An interesting car. This is the right place to find out about it. Value will depend a lot on condition. Photos ? Location ? http://www.buickheritagealliance.org/donations http://www.buickheritagealliance.org/index.php/archives/browse/1914

  16. Do you want the embossed aluminum sill covers? Series 41 is the same as series 61 Ann Bell (nuttybuick) sells them on ebay I thought a '39 team member had found alternative source, but cannot find that post/thread Any used sill cover is likely a to be worn / damaged
