This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Great looking 8 track tape player. I bought it from another board member for a 68 GS I used to own. I was told it worked when Dave had it, but I never tried, so can't guarantee it.
    $200 plus shipping and insurance thru fedex

    Jeff,
    The 68 is a one year only item. The mounting bracket is the two braces, and the door faceplate does not have the word BUICK pressed into it

    John, it's carpeted , just the angle the picture was taken at makes it look like the flooring used in the Special.

    Korrie, I have some harnesses for the 69-up version. The 68 was totally different and I have no clue where it went.

    John, that is factory carpeting, just the angle and light make it look like the base flooring

    Korrie, I don't have the 68 harness any longer , no clue where it went

    Jeff, if you find one you want restored, drop me a line and I can turn you on to a guy who is awesome at restoring these.
