Hi all, anyone out there with a set of BBB frame pads to fit my LaSabre 'vert. I had a young man pull the 350 and was trying to install the 455 with the pads I gave him...but then found out, hey...they won't work. So am in dire need of a set. Just PM or email me with your price plus shipping to area code 91350. I looked at Poston's and TA and didn't see any. Thanks in advance. I'm trying to avoid hauling my butt to a junk yard, they are too far away and I don't walk too well. Thanks Len
71-76 frame pads from all big buicks with a 455 are the same.lesabre,centurion ,electra.see yah Ray ________ Find Headshop

There's Centuion without an engine sitting at the Miliken exit on the 10 yard.. I don't know about the condition of the frame bads though. There's also a 72 Electra and a 75 Lesabre (350) at the waterman exit further away on the 10 too, with engines in em. Last but closest there's a 75 Electra/lesabre (?) at the Rialto exit yard too, half price there on Saturday. Saw it all today.
Thanks Kimson. Hope all is well with you. Bruno P has a set coming my way out of NY. Hopefully have them today. Say, you ever get up this way? I'll send you a private email...need some additional work on my 72 'vert.
