    I believe the GSCA is selling them to their people only, at $500. Although I have heard rumor that there may be a Buick vendor or 2 that is going to have them too.

    Todd, I believe we have another member here on V8 that has been working on a 71 repro. I don't recall the name though. :Dou:

    We want to get this first batch done and sent before going on to manufacture another batch of 1970 grilles. If there's demand there's no problem for doing more.
    As for the 1971 one's, we planned to do them also but if somebody's doing them (apparently they are available.) , then I don't see any reason for me do go on on these grilles.
    Thanks for your kind comments.

    NJBuickRacer I'd rather be racing...

    Since '70 and '71 are taken care of, is there hope for a '72 GS repop? :Brow:

    Olivier,
    Do you have any pictures of your GS that you can post here?

    yes I do have pictures (of course), but should I post them in this colum (i don't think it's the subjet on repro parts) or another ?

    Olivier, you can post a pic here, no problem. But it would be nice to have them added to the Member's Rides section also, if you would like. :TU:

    Dave, Olivier is not selling the grilles to the retail market, he is at the manufacturing end of the dist chain. The GSCA is selling them, though I've heard the initial run of 100 has been sold out. I've also heard there may be a Buick vendor handling them, but don't know this as a fact. I would suggest calling the GSCA offices for more info.

    sherwood green and dark sandlewood interior (like the 2 page spread 1970 buick brochure). One of the pictures was in Hot Rod magazine.
    As for the front grille I just got it, so this week-end it's painting and mounting time !! I'll make pictures to post here on monday. :bglasses:
