    Good Afternoon List:
    Have been away......working on the Buick. Parked in my barn 6-21-1982.
    Pulled out April 2005. On the road in 41 days. This was a hurry up job so my son could drive the same car to his prom, that I drove to mine. Finally licensed in May of 2007 and a gob of money later, it is now time for details. I had posted sometime back about a gillle and chrome surround for a 68 Special. I lost contact with a person who had one, so I am back with the same request. Does not have to be in excellent condition. Just not cracked or broken. Thanks in advance. TW

    I've had this a while. There are a few pits. One stud and 3 nuts are missing. I could try to get some if needed. $35+shipping.

    It looks good to me. I'll take it. I live in US zipcode 52641.
    Don't worry about fast shipping, just regular rate will be fine. Let me know what the total will be, and I'll send a money order.

    Thanks for the quick response. TW

    Timothy, I had replied on your old thread that I had such a grille on my 68 GS for the time being, and it could become available at a later date. I still do not have any timeline for that to happen though.

    :Do No: For a Special grille, you may try John's Auto Salvage in Cabool, Missouri. I don't have the number but it should be listed in the book. He had a 68 Special a couple years ago when I was locating parts for my 68 Skylark.

    Don't know for sure if this is any help, but it's worth a try. :Do No:

    Marty:
    I appreciate the tip, and did give them a call. Unfortunately, the grille broke when he picked it up with the wrecker. He was very apologetic, and upset that it happened. Me too :idea2: TW
