    Hi Guys -

    I have a friend that needs to convert '65 Skylark front fenders into '65 Gran Sport fenders (w/ the "venti-ports")...

    So, can anyone send me a paper template (w/measurements) showing the proper mounting location (including holes) for the '65 GS fender venti-ports?

    I'll reimburse postage costs....

    (I thought there was an old thread on this topic, but I could not find it)

    THANKS

    Venti-ports is the official Buick term for what most of the world calls "portholes."

    Ventiports

    Dan,

    Can't provide a template but on my car the bottom rear edge of the ventiport is 1/2 inch from the fender edge. At the top rear edge it is 9/16 inch from the fender edge. Also, it is 9/16 below the fender crease. Hope this helps.
