    Here is our 3rd and final attempt at a Poll, maybe we just aren't supposed to do a poll... :rant:

    We are trying to find out which grille you guys would like us to reproduce next. This will help see which grille needs the most attention. Do not be alarmed as this does not decide whether our not they are made at all. We just want to know which one is need next. This poll will last one month.

    I voted for the '67 because they are almost impossible to find and had to opt for repairables for some jobs.

    The '72 would be next because of the number of cars still in existance.

    You guys repoed the caddy of the trunk floors for which we all should be greatful.( I do not think the word is really out yet on how good that piece is relative to other companies' pieces.) But golly we NEED rear wheel house reproductions. Most of our cars cars have metal cancer there. So do fenders which we admit is a more complicated part to repro. Finally, door skins are needed almost as bad. In numbers we are talking about more 70-72s but other years also need help with these parts.

    I voted for the '68 GS grill. It can be sold to both GS and Skylark owners (just paint to match) so you would open the market up to more than just GS owners (possibly more sales?) :Do No:

    I think they are just as hard to find as any other "plastic" Buick grill.....

    If I had money I'd definitely want a 1970.

    I feel for you George, as I too would love to see some 68 stuff made, we're in about the same boat as you 67 guys. BTW, The Parts Place has posted earlier today that they intend to offer the full line of GS grilles 67-72, their own grilles, not made by someone else, such as the GSCA grilles, so that they can keep their selling prices reasonable. I suspect the 70 in this poll will not get the higher vote totals, since many guys have already purchased them from the GSCA.

    Well, I'm surprised the 70 has an early lead. Didn't you guys jump on the GSCA grilles?

    I wouldn't buy a tooth brush from the GSCA, if TPP makes a 70 grille I will buy at least one and possibly another as a spare, so I voted for the 70 grille.

    buickdav Kris' other half.

    67' ! Contrary to popular belief there are other GS's too. Not just the 70-72's. Besides that, I may be biased, but I have to agree that the 67 grille is the "most aggressive looking" ever made.

    In numbers I think there are more 70 GS car left, under renovationm and being cloned.

    I don't know why it wouldn't work for you, but I edited the poll closing date, and it looks like you're good for a month now.

    Thanks, I guess sometimes car guys don't make good Internet guys, and then some do, as in your case... :TU: We just want to get a good amount of feedback so we can see where we go next. Sites like this are a good source to check the market out. We have no problem reproducing it as long as there is a demand for it. Thanks again.

    70 GS Grille

    Offer me a 70GS grille with the paint on it and without the GSCA politics for around $500 and I'll order one the day they become available.

    regards
