  1. Hi,

    We are restoring a 72 Buick Skylark Custom Convertible 2 door. I have a list of parts I am looking for...I hope someone here can help me find what I need.
    • Front bumper/bumper bolts
    • Rear bumper/bumper bolts/bumper guard
    • Rocker Mouldings
    • Grille
    • Wheel Opening Mouldings(4)
    • Pass. door window regulator (manual)
    • Rubber tail lamp housing
    • Headlamp bezels(2)
    • Drivers door mirror
    • Park lamps for front bumper
    If anyone has any of these parts or knows where I might get them...I would appreciate it a lot. This is a gift for our customer's daughter and these are the only things holding the project up.

    Thanks,

    I have one New Old Stock 72 headlamp door bezel. I do not remember which side. If interested you can contact me if you wish over the PM system on this Board.


    I also have one of the orginal metal versions of the 72 grille As I recall they made both plastic and metal Skylark grilles that year.
     
  4. flynbuick: I will PM you shortly.

    Thanks,

    Missy,

    I have the egg crate style potmetal grille that came on the Custom model. It is in excellent shape however someone painted it flat black in the past so that would need to be stripped for the original look. If you remain interested let me know. Dean

    We are still looking for:
    Rear bumper/bumper bolts/bumper guard
    Rear Wheel Opening Mouldings
    Rubber tail lamp housing
    Drivers door mirror

    Let us know if you know anyone who might have them or come up with these parts in terrific shape.

    Your cars were all beautiful....especially the blue one...you should post pics on here.

    Let us know when you get ready to visit...we will plan some fun too.
     
  11. Hi everyone,

    Still looking for a grille for that 72 Skylark. We finally received the front and rear bumper back from Keystone. They rechromed them for us and did a fabulous job. We have everything else ready on it except the grille. If anyone has a grille in good shape please let me know...it's the only thing holding up the owner picking up the car for his daughter.

    Thanks,
