Hi folks. I'm thinking of starting a line of reproduction parts and wanted to do this poll to find out what year Buick you would like to see new reproduction parts for? While were at it, what part would you like to see made?
Opps! Okay, I screwed that poll up, disreguard that last setup. You'll have to bear with me here. I'm new at all this. ou:
Riviera parts These parts would be nice to have... 71-72 Riviera trunk lock emblem 71-72 Riviera grill emblem 71-72 Riviera grill 71 Riviera taillight chrome (I have a set of perfect NOS for reference)
I know what I would like to see reproduced. An entire 1969 Stage 1 4 speed convertible with A/C. Turquoise mist with White buckets & white top. Oh yeah, with tilt wheel and full power. :grin:
We need the other rear outer wheelhouses for Skylarks and GS cars 64-65,66-67,and 68-69.Also need rear quarter skins for 64-65 Skylark and GS.This would keep alot of our cars from being junked that could be repaired and also then put a need for other Buick car part reproductions as more Buick cars will be restored if the bodies can be saved.
Reproduction Parts I would like to see some reproduction of those Emblems on the Grille and Trunk Chrome Headlight and Tailight Housings on Mid 50's Buicks All owners of these models has pitted and rusted parts :ball: Some Sheetmetal Patch Panel would be nice also Regards, :3gears: Tom Gallagher
Ok, I know my first response was tongue in cheek, but truthfully, I would like to start seeing full bumpers reproduced. 68-69 fronts and rears. I do not see how this could ever be possible or practical without some serious market research first though. In fact, all the market research has probably already been done already, which is why you do not see any being reproduced. Only Chevelle bumpers and Chevy stuff. So, my second choice is dash bezels, specifically for 69's. :Smarty:
I second the request for lower quarte skin patch panels for '64-'66 Skylarks--I have hand made 3 sets now and I know that most people are not able to do that, so I know for a fact you could sell a ton of them right from the beginning if they were a quality piece. Reproduction Buick rubber accessory handi-mats in all the colors would sell like hotcakes too-everyone with a '60s, early '70s Buick is looking for them.
inner fenders and battery trays for everyone.... ha ha ha!!! How 'bout armrest covers for 71-73 rivieras. ...or outside door handles for 71-73 rivieras.
64 65 Skylark wheel well trim, Bucket seats and trim, Grille bezels,and Taillights, hmmm.... I'll get back to you.:dollar: :dollar:
And the '68 Cats- battery trays, taillight lenses, passenger side mirrors (universal for all '68 and '69 Buicks), heater/A/C controls and bezels, steering wheels, tri-shield emblems for grille and decklid, grille screens, the list goes on and on!!
