Hi, here's some pictures, to keep you updated. First shipment is due end of january, sorry for the delay. Olivier GSCA#3158
I believe the GSCA is selling them to their people only, at $500. Although I have heard rumor that there may be a Buick vendor or 2 that is going to have them too.
Thanks for the update Olivier :TU: I just sent off the payment and card for mine. I guess my ship date is late February . :beer
Todd, I believe we have another member here on V8 that has been working on a 71 repro. I don't recall the name though. ou:
And now I see a new post on the board states that The Parts Place has a repro 71 grille just about ready to sell. :eek2:
We want to get this first batch done and sent before going on to manufacture another batch of 1970 grilles. If there's demand there's no problem for doing more. As for the 1971 one's, we planned to do them also but if somebody's doing them (apparently they are available.) , then I don't see any reason for me do go on on these grilles. Thanks for your kind comments. Olivier GSCA #3158 1970 GS455 1973 Opel commodore GS2.8 1983 Audi quattro 1995 Eagle vision 1931 Renault......(the Buick parts storage compartment)
yes I do have pictures (of course), but should I post them in this colum (i don't think it's the subjet on repro parts) or another ? Olivier
Olivier, you can post a pic here, no problem. But it would be nice to have them added to the Member's Rides section also, if you would like. :TU:
Dave, Olivier is not selling the grilles to the retail market, he is at the manufacturing end of the dist chain. The GSCA is selling them, though I've heard the initial run of 100 has been sold out. I've also heard there may be a Buick vendor handling them, but don't know this as a fact. I would suggest calling the GSCA offices for more info.
Olivier, thanks for posting..I have seen your car before, I don't remember where but I've seen it. I take it you have an nice new 70 GS grille on it now?
sherwood green and dark sandlewood interior (like the 2 page spread 1970 buick brochure). One of the pictures was in Hot Rod magazine. As for the front grille I just got it, so this week-end it's painting and mounting time !! I'll make pictures to post here on monday. :bglasses: Olivier
