Hi everyone, I am in the procees of repairing my trunk and need to source the no 6 & 7 body mounts that are under the trunk floor, any ideas where I can get these items ? Thanks
I hate to be the bringer of bad news here, but those mounts are rusted out on almost every car I've seen...even the cars here in CA! o No: IMO, Your best bet is to make them yourself, or adapt a-body mounts to suit your purposes.
Just an update, I received the complete body mounts for my 1970 Electra the other day from Summit Racing. The parts are from Energy Suspension 3-4135G. I noticed that Energy suspension has expanded there listing for 1970 buick parts over the last month. I am in the process of fixing some of the holes in the trunk floor at this time and needed to source new body rubber mounts that where fitted under the floor section. I will provide some pictures next week. I have already made templates of the patch panels and will need to make a template of the body mounts that fitted under the floor to. Here are some pic of what it looks like:
Here are some pics of the new body mounts, they fit pretty good. The car is going back for storage this week and I will get a start on it this spring. Patch panels for the trunk floor and the rear quarters.
I have seen a few full size buicks of this year and the rust is in the same areas. The car is going back for storage today, But I will get an early start on the sheet metal this spring. I have the body mounts and will now abe able to fab up the replacement metal so that it fits with the mount. My original fuel sender had to be replaced and I am waiting for one from Summit which should be delivered later this month. MY original sender was the canister type and was impossible to source a new. I did find this one a Summit which will work for any of the Full size 1970 buicks - GMK-4047-755-712 FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT
