Buick35 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Dose anyone have an original style window "bug" that I can get a picture of? I had some made but I looked up the code on them and they're from a much later vehicle. It's the LOF with the shield I think. I might still use them because I'm not sure anyone would notice but not sure.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shootey Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 As I’m sure you know, I have the ones from my 1941 Buick woodie. They have the production date on them. It would be nice if you could get art work with the date. 1935’s are pretty rare. 1934 could get close but the date would be off if I in fact they are dated. The Markngard guy seems to be reasonable in getting things right. He told me he will keep my artwork if I need more stencils in the future. thomas Schuttish aka Shootey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shootey Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 You have my permission. I’ll attach an exemplar of the one he did for me. The end product is not quite as crisp as the original but nice nonetheless. Maybe he could change the “4-41” to something with “35”. Be sure the date predates the production date of your car. I’ll send him an email if needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I don't think that the 1941 artwork is correct for a 1935. I can get you more photos of some of them from my two 1937 Buicks for your shortly. I can't guarantee that 1935 is the same as 1937 but one of my 1937 Buicks has a vent window dated 12/36, so I would expect them to be more likely to be correct than the 1941 version. The 1937 one is 1/2 inch tall and 1/4 inch wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCHinson Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The 1935 glass date code is the same design as 1937. Attached is a photo from a friend's 1935 40 Series Buick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buick35 Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 Go to markngard.com and send them a picture of what you want. I think it's the same as the 38s pictured only with a different date. Talk to a guy named Bruce.He dose good work.Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
