Still looking for a good home ray:

 

Would you consider selling off that add-on 4-way flasher unit hanging under the dash?

 

I have a spare without the bracket that's never been installed. If you're interested in that PM me. If I stay pulling stuff out I won't stop lol

 

Where does the bracket go? Can you mount it without one?

Pics maybe?

Thanks in advance,
Steve in Mpls.

 

The bracket goes under the dash. It has a small black relief with "PULL" on it. I'll try to get some pics this week, it's in my father's parts pile.

Now... TTT for the car

 

Still available. I'm open to trades for open car trailers, and flexible on the price for V8B guys :Brow:

 

Here's a much better picture.
A little photo editing can do wonders.:TU:

 

What did you do Roger? It looks the same as the first one I posted :TU:

I can take some better pics for anyone interested... it's just sitting out front LOL

 

Just brightened it up with a PhotoSuite2000 program that came with my
scanner. My camera takes pics a little on the dark side too so I use the
editing just about on every picture.

 

I'd like to see more photos if you could. How's the trunk and rear quarters? Is that original paint? Interior?

 

I'm planning on giving it a good wash and taking better pictures today or tomorrow.

It's not the original paint, but it was a laquer repaint. From what I can tell, it's the only paint the car has had.

The quarters are perfect, as are the doors, floors and doglegs. All the trim is there, and in good shape.

The passenger side fender has some bondo in it at the belt line, just in front of the wheel well opening. Looks like it was hit at some point in the past, and it again has been tagged--likely a garage door frame tap.

When I bought the car last year, I though I could get the paint to shine back up but it's dead. It needs to be scuffed, smoothed and shot. I would also have the fender repaired at the same time. This was my plan until we found out we need to pay for our wedding in September.

I'll get some better pictures up asap. I'm planning on taking it to Carlisle tomorrow for the start of the Spring show if anyone's going to be there.

:beers2:

 

No luck at Carlisle. Car's still ready to go, made the 2.5 hour trip each way without a hitch--AND got 20mpg LOL

Cash talks. I have a honeymoon to pay for :beers2:

 

Brought my car home also. Nice clean original cars wasnt selling unless they were cheap.

Why is it 3000 miles away?

 

I'd go free shipping if I got asking price :eek2:

I really would prefer this go to a Buick guy (or gal). It might be on ebay by the end of May if it doesn't move.

I'm still waiting on weather's cooperation to give it a good cleaning for better pictures. ou:

 

damm,
that is tempting

 

Here's a plan for you guys:
Fly in, attend Yardleys Buick picnic on May 8th, and drive the 66 home!

 

I live close, and I've never made Yardley's Picnic. Working weekends for the past ten years will do that

Jamie, you have PM.

 

I knew that your inner car guy couldn't be held back for long!
