WOW thats cool Brian. Please put me in line IF the OP passes on it. I would love to have this for My Retro GS.
Yes Tom, Fritz has a top for me. (Top only) Fritz said it was in fairly good condition but of course I would much rather find a complete one that is new for my freshly done motor.
For years I hauled this piece from Rockford, MI to Carlisle. Casey, Steve, Ray, Cecil and I would go there hustling old Buick parts often running specials (buy anything, get a free beer). SO. I pull this piece out all excited I may finally have a home for it and......I have a box and an air filter! Somewhere along the way the crown jewel/chrome lid are MIA. I’m open to hearing offers if anyone would like to add this to their collection.
PackerBacker, You had me all excited when I saw the post with a pic of the box then I read what you posted and was like NOOOOOooooooo lol. So just to be clear all you have is a box with a filter correct ?
LOL yea I shared your enthusiasm believe me! The side of the box gave up the glue ghost somewhere along the way and the cover I presume fell out. IF I ever find it I'll let you know but considering how clean the box and filter were and there was a hold down screw in there as well I fear it may have fallen out and be lost.
Eagle eye Dave Tumas spotted a early Riv @ the goodguys show today with this on it today. I tried to talk the owner out of it but no luck.
You found my lost sister! No, interesting , It's not a common name, all German, not too many around that I know of, some in Germany, Mom in Pa. Anyway, thanks for the update.
