Right Grille?

I don't know if this grille is correct for a 1971 Buick Skylark.

Anyone?

looks like a 71 skylark grille to me - same one I have

 

Yes, that looks like the correct Skylark grill for 1971.

 

Thanks. Just double checking because it was plastic, and I wasn't expecting any plastic on a 71' car.

 

The only '70-'72 metal grill I believe was the 1972 Skylark Custom grill - used to have that grill on my Skylark before I switched it out for the plastic GS grill.

 

If you copy the "image code" off of photobucket, your picture appears without a link. Nice project you have there.

 

Thanks. Thought a good first resto, something easy with not to much work.

I see you were thinking differently lol

This reminds me, did some Skylarks only come with 1 side mirror?

 

Lol my bad, The way the sun his the hood and trunk it looks like the paint is faded and with your list of parts I just assumed it was.

I'm an idiot. ou: ou:

 

Np lol. It is a project but nothing major, lot of little stuff. The paint is faded, but only on 1/3 of the trunk so idk what I'm gonna do about that yet (suggestion?). And i meant you were thinking differently with your projects, not mine hahah

 

I'm only 16 like you lol.

 

You have big projects, and i have a small one, even though were the same age.

 

Yea mine are pretty big, especially the stage1. I think we might sell it. Luckily my dad is an amazing mechanic, He has been in the business since he was 16 and took over my grandpas shop in '88. Between him and this board it makes my project a whole lot easier.

Lucky! Lol I'm pretty much in on this by myself.

 

Well you got the board. Where are you from?

 

Rockland, New York. Couple hours from you. 2 1/4 maybe?

 

I'd say a little under 2 hours. Not that far. Did you get your liscense yet?

 

I'm eligibile to get my junior, but I have to schedule my road test. Just a permit so far. What about you?

 

I'm elegible to get my junior in september. Right around when my car will hopefully be done. :beers2:

 

Nice! Good Luck! Do you know where the engine number is to i can check if it is 100% numbers matching? i trust the guy who sold it to me i just wanna be sure

 

I'm not sure, use the search function on the board, I'm sure someone has asked the question before.
