    We have just recieved in a new part that we had made.

    69-70 RADIATOR HOSE SUPPORT

    The support mounts to the driver side of the fan shroud and connects with 2 screws.

    Our price is $25 and they are in stock ready to ship out.

    Ive been making that part for over 20 years and your part does not look correct. Do want me to post a picture with the correct looking one? (And I supply the correct screws with mine) And I sell my to all the vendors if you want some.

    big deal :boring: make something that someone is not allready making. :Dou:


    Ya I know I am a buddy of Mike's,but I have personally seen the hard work he puts into every piece he makes, packages and ships personally. YOU get a part that is close to original as possible,not close enough.

    I would like to see the difference

    I have an early 70 GS and it is missing that part.

    It's damn shame that you guys couldn't benefit each other, and all of the Buick guys, by using each other's expertise in their field. Garrison makes parts the right way, because most of us are a little pickier than the average "bolt on and go" Chevy guy. You guys could make money by using Garrison's R&D and buying his part for a discount. It would be a good part... and very correct! That in turn would help out the guys in the Buick community because I am sure Mike could make many non existant parts that YOU AND I could benefit from. Making parts that are already available, and not a high demand item is f'ing silly.
    Don't take this as a slam, it's not meant to be one. It just makes no sense unless someone is deliberately trying to hurt a small business guy like Mike. I do like that you guys took a poll on the grilles and make other parts. Hopefully someday, grilles will be available for $500 that you can just buy with no conditions.

    Respectfully,

    Mike

    edit: Guess I missed the 70 grille announcement! :Dou: painted....with studs? :Brow:

    Thank you for your support. I in turn will (and did just this week) support you by purchasing parts that are not readily available to me. (Note where I am from!) Please expend your R&D $$ on parts that we can't get elsewhere which will benefit all of us!
    Thanks for listening
