My recently acquired 68 Buick GS400 convertible will be heading to the body shop first of October, and I'm probably going to be needing at least one quarter panel, both rockers, and maybe floors? I already have a trunk pan, I'm just wondering where is the best place to get these parts? Who sells them, and who has the best prices? What all is available aftermarket? I'm also going to be adding some wheel well moldings, are those reproduced? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!!!
Quarter panels= Tabco stamps them, and wholesales them. Usually $300+/side. Floors= many sources. Use the search key to find supplier/fit/finish/prices. Rockers= do they make them? Wheel well molding= will have to find those used- NOT reproduced.
So you're not sure about the rockers? I will have to find that out for sure, because those need replaced for sure! Also, what other vehicles share the same wheel well moldings? What can I search for on eBay that is compatible with the 68 GS? I've heard 68-72 A bodies are mostly the same, but surely not the wheel well moldings, correct?
1968-1969 Skylark, Special, Special Deluxe, GS California, GS 350, GS 400 all share the same moldings. In 68, the center is painted black. 69's are all stainless. Post a 'looking to buy' ad in the parts wanted section. I am sure you will get some replies... :TU: Also, PM 69gs400s (alan). He was talking about POSSIBLY selling some of his parts. Hell might freeze over first... but... o No:
