    I have a 73 buick century...What about interior rear 1/4 panels, inner sail panels, headliner trim all the plastic interior parts that crumble when you try to remove them from 40yrs of age.

    Also reproduce trim for exterior...the trim that goes around the rear 1/4 windows and the trim that goes around the bottom of the trunk and on both sides of the trunk.

    billet upper and lower grills would be nice, being i can't find replacement factory ones that aren't broke... they make hardly no peproduction pieces for this year or bodystyle.

    If anybody has any of hteses items or know of a place to get them i need all the help i can get..:pray:

    Better late than never. Thread was started in 04, still no vendor commitment , 8 years later. When then? Apparently the economic downturn has slowed the need for these parts. We are but a small niche. Perhaps when the economy gets better (perhaps I should have said" IF" ) the need will return. JIM/Rott

    LH and RH Quarter Panels / Skins and patches are definately a must on a 40 + yr old car, and most companies don't make them or are out of stock and have no idea on when they'll replemish inventory. They definately need to address these issues and make repro parts, as there are thousands of skylarks / gs / gsx's / and other variations of these models out there that still exist. That's my .02 cents.
