Getting deeper into this old trunk.

Found a set of 4 hood hold downs, all 4 are in good condition, but should be repalted for show, NO pitting and all but one has the clamp, small lower part that hook grabs on body.(excellent description because I don't know what I am talking about) therefore a picture.

Price is $ 25.00 plus postage.(thats all four)

This is a large trunk and still holding more good stuff, mostly 20'S and 30"s parts. Saw some Trippe lights, side mount mirrors,delco coil,Bosch horns.

Well the trunk is EMPTY.

Now to sell the trunk. Size is 36 1/2" wide X 17" deep X 19 1/2" high. Some paint peeling with light rust at one bottom corner, Both latches are working (no Keys) chrome stips not pitted or dented but would need to be replated. Leather handles on side. Really a deep trunk, held a lot of stuff.

$ 180.00 plus shipping or pick up.

Still have some parts not sold, Inquire about leftovers.

If you are looking for Buick Parts I found another trunk filled with Buick parts

Will start it on the BCA page soon, this is a BIGGER trunk, has a 1970 Electra rear quarter panel in it.

Thanks to all who have viewed this listing, and have made purchases. With all this empty space I can start buying more parts, I hate to see an empty space.
