    Just got a 69 GS400 that my cousin bought new, he has since passed away and I'm rebuilding it. Olive Beige w/vinyl which I think I'm changing to FireGlow w/o vinyl. Hasn't been driven since 1990 other than around the block once a year, until 5 years ago when he passed away and then sat. Changed plugs, replace gas and she started right up, 69,000 miles. Anyway, would like suggestions on finding parts, like window regulators and guide wheels for the windows. Everything else is in excellent shape.
    Thanks for any help!

    Welcome to the board. It sounds like a nice car. A good place for all your Buick needs and help on getting your car back on the road. A big Buick Open show in June this summer in Puyallup.

    Gary,

    Welcome aboard from the other side of the mountains! Fireglow Orange is a wonderful color, you will love it. Looks great with a white top too (of course I am biased a bit, lol).

    Place an ad in the parts wanted section with a good descriptive title and you should have no problem finding those parts.

    Welcome Gary.

    I think I may have a bunch of misc. window and door hardware when you get to that point. Why do you need guide wheels? Are they busted?
