    Finding 68 Skylark parts in Sweden is like finding water in Sahara so I thank you all in USA for helping me.

    Sorry,not the same on the 68. A V-shape style on the driver side. 69-72 looks like the picture.

    Is it being shipped to your country or in the US? Flat rate envelope price ranges between 29.95 to 33.95 international

    I dug out my factory master parts catalog (printed 1973), it lists one number, 1386181, for 1968 A body cars. The only reference I see to it on the web is ironically a core support swap question that is answered in part by Duane posting it.

    Well,seems to be hard to find despite there were over 200.000 cars built that year. Any well known Buick scrap yard in USA?

    You could ask Hector. CARHEX1 on the forum. I highly recommend him.
