Hello all. I recently saved this fine piece of American history from a salvage yard that was changing owners. I have this loaded on my trailer but missing some parts to get it off. I am looking for a spindle/steering knuckle for the driver side and some old drums so I can move it around. Please let me know if you have any of these parts or other parts. I live in the Raleigh, NC area. Thanks Jerry
Hey Jerry68GS400, You're welcome.... And , I just left you some additional information under the other thread.... Yours, Craig... P.S. My friends Joe (father) Buick and Joey (son) Buick Have 13 --- 1959 Buicks --- the ONLY G M car with cantilever head lights !!!!!
13!! And here we are only looking for 1 driver quality. Having a tough time locating. Found the one photographed above, but NC will not issue me a title, not even with a bond. Disappointing because this one has so much potential.
Well. I mean it has a solid frame. Sheetmetal needs a lot of work. Mostly the doors. Fenders and quarters are workable.
Do not have any 59 parts but I do have a set of 1959 Chilton professional service manual and the matching flat rate book.
Three or four "title" companies in Auto Round Up. (Jane Lew, WV). Broadway Title is one that comes to mind. Actually did call one of them, to inquire about creating a title for a '53 Pontiac hulk was thinking of buying. They said it would be around $500. Have no idea about the reputation of these companies. Or if what they claim to do is actually legal.
I used Broadway (pretty sure it was Broadway) to get a title for a '64 Marauder. No problems, everything went thru fine, but this was circa 1993. Then, it was either $150 or $175.
