Guest rluke Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Hi. I am looking for someone trustworthy to look at a 58 special for sale on ebay at Duncan BC. I was thinking that if the parts on it were any good for me, then I could buy it, someone willing to take it to strip could have the rest of the car, including engine, gearbox, diff, trunk etc. I have a wagon. I will need to ship the parts down to Longbeach Ca. If anyone is interested or has any other ideas I will look forward to hearing from you, Rob in Australia.

MrEarl Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Rob, this car was advertised for $1000 on this site 1950 - 1959 - Team Buick Classifieds before going to eBay. He also has a 58 Limited parter for $500. What parts in particular are you looking for? Wish I was closer I'd be glad to help. Let me know if you run up on anything on the east coast that would work.

FireballV8 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Hi RobI may be able to help you, I have a friend in Brisbane who is a Buick Club member and he brings in a few containers of cars and parts every year for himself and friends. I can put you together with him and I help from Los Angeles. What parts do you need? I know of a four door hardtop that is for sale, so maybe something can be worked out. What color is your car?

Guest rluke Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Thanks for the replies. I am looking for good chrome that could go on the car as is. Mainly tail lights, nearly all rear bumper pieces, front bumper stops, parking light assemblies and trim underneath, headlight assemblies, complete grille, heater box, radiator support panel and stone guard. I can repair most of what I have but am trying to see if I can get as much as I can for good money. Unfortunately on a tight budget but willing to pay for the right stuff. Rob.

Guest rluke Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Hi. What sort of costs would be involved in getting a car from just over the canadian border to california? Taxes? Any idea on transport costs? Thanks, Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEarl Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Rob, you couldn't ask for any better help than Steve and what he might have to offer. Great guy and they don't come any more honest and true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rluke Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I sent a couple of emails and just waiting to hear back. I have spoken to a couple of junkyards this morning and they are telling me they are crushing cars, Wyoming classic cars told me that have crushed all their cars. Thats a shame.
