TG57Roadmaster Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 For many years of '57 Buick ownership, I've searched in vain for a good fuel door for my Roadmaster. I found a fine, shelf-worn NOS example about five years ago and have now listed NORS '57 Buick Fuel Doors (at the main Commercial Forum), made in a mold cast from that NOS part. Pardon the obvious, blatant commercial pitch, but... Your Buick deserves this bumper beauty bit!TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly_John Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Wow, Tom. What a great service you're doing for most every '57 Buick owner! And, just $125 for this quality reproduction. Just think of what a guy would have to pay for an NOS fuel door these days (if, by some long shot, that part was encountered at a swap meet). Nice going.

lancemb Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Wow, very nice! I can't decide if the NOS door I am saving for my Roadmaster post-paint now feels less special or more special... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TG57Roadmaster Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 lancemb,I'd consider it much more special, 'cause it's probably the only NOS one left.I haven't seen one since I bought the one we used (about 5-6 years ago), and it had so much shelf wear it would've needed re-plating to be any good.If we could all find an NOS door, we wouldn't need to have made reproductions!JollyJohn,Thanks for the good words, this is a foray into re-doing Buick bits. If the '57 doors sell well (new reduced price), we'll see about doing '58 doors, as well. Same type door, but a completely different casting.Have you found your '57 Caballero yet? When you do, I know where you can get a nice fuel door for it...TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
