I am in the stages of restoring my 69 Skylark Convertible. If you have a good set of Headers for my 350, I am interested. If you have a good GS steel hood with inserts, I am interested. Thanks ! Erick
Hello Erick.. I also have a few complete 69 GS hoods AND a correct 69 GS air cleaner...! that is, only IF Fred cant helpya out! :TU: ...AND in about a week, I will have a newly rechromed set of SHOW QUALITY hood grilles!! Wheelz, Tampa Bay
Hi Guys, I am still in search of a hood for my 69 Skylark. As I continue to look I was wondering if the hoods have an interchangeable year, in other words, will the 68 hood fit a 69? I see more availability on the 70 and 71 but I am pretty sure those will not fit a 69. I also considered the fiberglass route but am leary on the craftsmanship. In my experience fiberglass hoods tend to torque and for some reason never look right. Perhaps I haven't had a quality fiberglass hood yet but I have had a few in my time. Just like everything else, I have learned you need to use the real thing if you want it to look right. Please let me know if you guys know where I can get my hands on one. The engine, tranny, front brakes, radiator, starter, alternator and headers are finally in the car and the body is the next item on the list. I am in California 91350 so if you do come across one or know where I should be looking your help would greatly be appreciated. Many thanks for your feedback Erick
Hey Erick! are you not interested in the 69 GS hood I have? TRY HERE: http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?263528-69-GS-hood I am willing to listen to reasonable offers and perhaps we can discuss shipping options? I've built relatively inexpensive hood crates and have had good success in shipping using DHL freight. Wheelz, Tampa Bay
[HR][/HR]Hi Wheelz Thanks for yor reply and offer. Question, how much work do you think will take to get the nose of the hood straight? Overall it looks just like what I am looking for. Let me know what your package deal would be, crate and all. Thanks again! ---------- Post added at 01:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ---------- Hi Fred, Can you send me a couple of pics of the 1969 gs hoods you have available? Thanks Erick
Erick, details and pix sent! :TU: I have some questions that I need answers to, before putting together a quote for you! Wheelz, Tampa Bay
Hi Wheelz I saw the pictures you sent me via the link you sent earlier but have not received any other message (in case I should be looking for something I am not finding in my Inbox) let me know what questions you need answered. thanks again
