    Need a 71 Riviera passenger side fender.
    Prefer no rust.
    Must ship to Hawaii, zip 96813.
    Thanks, Aloha

    Will a '72 fender work?

    1972 model year front wing will work,
    but first you need to share info about the number of side lights.... :Smarty:

    71 Rivi fender

    As far as I know, '71 and '72 fenders are the same. Mine has the smaller, simple turn signal lens, not the larger "cornering light" lens option. Thanks

    This car is in a local yard, I don't know if the fender is rust-free, but I'm going there tomorrow (if it doesn't rain) and would be glad to check on it. I've gotten several fenders from them for $50-100, depending on who's behind the counter that day.

    What about shipping? It'd be too big to send USPS, and UPS's website quotes me right at $300 :eek2: to Hawaii. Is there a better way?

    Please take a close look if you have the chance. I'll check on shipping options. One of the prices you pay to live on an island.....
    Thanks!

    Johnny,

    The whole world is an island..... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    And shipping to Hawaii is always cheaper compared to shipping from N-America to Europe.

    Is petrol also more expensive on Hawaii compared to mainland USA ?

    I don't know about price, but I heard it takes FOREVER for the gas to come out once you turn the pump on. :laugh:

    (you know...long hose on the ocean floor :Dou: :spank: ok, I'll go home now...)

    I'm not able to go to the yard today like I'd planned, I'm staying home with a sick 6-year-old. :ball: Maybe tomorrow...

    Come on James..... :rolleyes:

    Don't spoil your own joke by telling the clue....... :Dou:

    Can you check if the R emblem on the Riviera grille, is still in good nick ?
    If it is, can you buy it for me and ship it to the Netherlands ?
    (I hope you do take PayPal ?)

    The ONLY '71 Buick in the entire place is an Electra that's minus it's PS fender and hood.

    There is a '72 Electra, would that fender work? :Do No:
