Spent half an hour searching for casting #'s for any/all 4bbl aluminum intakes for 215 and 300 engines, and I give up... Last couple years there's been what I believe is a 215 aluminum intake at a local swap meet, and I'm considering making the guy an offer. But, I don't know the diff...

I can't seem to locate the link to the Show-N-Shine pages, can someone point me in the right direction? I was there yesterday, but those brain cells must have croaked overnight... :)

Hi guys! Alan Faircloth, a well-known vendor of GS and GN reproduction parts, is taking pre-orders for 70-72 GS/Skylark coolant overflow tanks. He has posted the details on another board, and I am going to copy his post into this thread, with his permission. I have a copy of his pre-order...

Mitch Romanowski is a great source for top quality repro wheel centers. I can email a "pictures w/prices" list that I got from him last year. It is a .pdf file-type. I bought a set of 68 GS center caps for $150/set, and they are BEAUTIFUL! Email me at dave.gramlow@horvick.com if you would...

I'm confused. Can someone clear this up for me? I have a 68 GS350. Had a 69 grille when I bought it. I'm putting a 68 grille back on it. My 68 assembly manual seems to indicate the 43437 series car (GS350) shares grilles with the Sportwagon Custom & the Special Deluxe 2d/4d and wagon. Is that...

Sean, Yes, Year One does offer them for around $24. I guess you need to actually weld them to the floor to install. If I ever run across some decent seats I'll consider doing this sometime. So many plans, so little time...... ------------------ David Gramlow 1968 GS350 GSCA 861

I have a 68 GS350 with bench seats. At some point in the future I would like to change to buckets. Can anyone who has done this swap, post the general steps involved in the process? I've never done any seat work before, so this would be new territory for me. Also, would I need to find specific...

Thanks for your help Todd. ------------------ David Gramlow 1968 GS350 GSCA 861

Thanks for the details Todd. My car id's and looks GS all the way except for the side moldings. And the racing stripes are long gone after at least a couple paint jobs. The hood, trunk and body emblems are all as they should be for a GS. Do you know if the body side moldings are supposed to...

The dash VIN for my 68 GS350 has a "K" for the plant code, 434378K...... and matches the protecto plate code also. It is clearly a K, not an X. But in Steven Dove's book, "Guide to Buick GS 65-74" the K code isn't listed until the 1970 chart on pg.13 and is for Leeds, MO. In 68/69 the Kansas...

Everyone I have asked tells me the 68/69 GS model did not have available the body side chrome molding that runs from near the headlights, across the door to the rear wheel well, then to the bumper. Only for the Skylarks. But on this site's page for the 69 models, it shows just such a car in the...

Anyone do a bench seat to bucket seats conversion in a 68 GS? Can it be done? ------------------ David Gramlow 1968 GS350 GSCA 861

I have a 68 GS350, mostly restored, but could use a few odds & ends replaced. Locally there is a 69 Special Deluxe 4-dr for sale, haven't looked at it yet, for $750. Is this a viable parts car for my 68 GS? Is there much that interchanges, particularly in the interior, or maybe in some body...
