    Hey guys, does anyone know where I could source a Hood for my 66 Lesabre 4 door? The one that pulls up on google with the fenders and doors has been sold. I am in Tennessee. Thank you all.

    Sure. None of them will be inexpensive but it’s worth looking into. DVAP had a fair amount of varied sixties full size Buick when toured their yard a couple of years ago. Unfortunately these parts - fenders hoods bumpers etc changed every year on these full size cars. For the most part.

    Take some time.....there is a hood out there.......mucho $$$ if you buy one and have it shipped from them out west places.

    Keep looking and i will look for you also.....hell buying a whole car for the hood might be cheaper than .......

    Peace WildBill

    p.s....i got a 66 Wildcat/Electra hood but it is too long for a LeSabre.......

    Thank you man, I called them Monday and was supposed to get a call back if he had one and he told me $450 plus shipping but never got a call, so I assume it’s gone.

    I went to DVAP wrecking yard and they did not have a hood for a 1966 Lesabre. They have a 66' lesabre but know hood. That probably why they did not call you back. If you need me to look for anything else on that car let me know.

    Unfortunate. A one year hood, and even less interchangeability. Reading Hollander, in some years, for Buick full size the hoods, and more commonly, the front fenders crossed over among models. Usually each year was different.
