News Break -Next project - Front parking light gaskets :Brow:

Parts Website soon to come also...

 

Ok guys.. I'm gonna stick my neck out here and move forward with the 65 Skylark / GS parking lens project.

Here are the details:

I need to sell at least 125 sets in order to make this project work out...

These will be high quality mold injected parts painted and ready to install.

$55.00 per lens / $110 per set plus $8.00 S&H (for the pair)

I've asked my supplier to try and have 30 sets ready in thirty days so I'll have some to sell at the Bowling Green GS Nats.

He's going to try and hit this deadline and says that he can have another 170 sets ready 15 days from then.

Please drop me an email if you're interested.

EMAIL ME - CLICK HERE

I'd like to try to gauge how close I'm going to get to the 125 set mark.

So... is everyone ready? ray: God I sure hope so..

Chris

 

I'm in for 2 sets for sure, maybe more....

(It's an addiction...I know)

Chris I'm still in for 1 set. First child going to college so "play" money is tight.:ball:

 

i'm in for a set of park light lenses.will email you.

 

We'll soon be able to call the 65 Skylark Parking lens project complete and ready to ship.

I took a couple of test shots to the GS Nats for review and all of the 65 owners that I showed them to seem to be really excited about finally having these available and the quality in which we'll be able to deliver them.

"If you seen these in BG, please feel free to provide your honest opinion on them".

We've decided to have them molded in Polycarb instead of the less expensive acrylic plastic. This is the same material that safety glasses (eye wear) is made of and it will last longer and be far better at taking hits from road debris.

We are now working on getting the mold "dialed" in and we are trying to match the silver paint as close to possible as the original.

I should have these ready for shipment in a week or so and We'll be offering these for direct sale at $110.00 a set plus shipping and handling (I still need to weigh a set and add up all the shipping materials).

I've mentioned this before and I don't mean to sound like a whiner, but I have a lot of money wrapped up in the tooling to bring these lenses to you and I'll be selling them on Ebay in an effort to recoup my costs as quickly as possible. I have no idea what these will bring, but please do not bid on them unless you are willing to pay more than the $110 direct price that I'm extending to all my V8Buick.com brothers out there.

Pictures, shipping costs and ship date.... soon to follow... :beer

Hi Chris, Put me in for a set of front signal lenses.
PONCH

 

After 4 years, 2 months, 13 days that this original thread was started by my good friend Dan Habel (5-5-2003) I'm proud to announce the release date for our new 1965 GS / Skylark parking lenses.













As of August 1st, I should have enough inventory to start filling parking lens orders and I'll start accepting your orders then.

I'm currently running about 15 pilot sets on Ebay right now at no reserve. I have no idea what these will go for and please don't "chase" them unless you are willing to pay more than the listing price I'm providing below.

As promised, I'm selling these at $110 a set and S&H will be a flat rate of $12.50 as long as they are shipped inside of the USA.

We also have parking lens gaskets for $13.50 a set and S&H is included if purchased and shipped with the lenses.

The parts are simply amazing and we decided to spend the extra money and have them mold injected in Poly Crab (the same material used to make safety glasses) so they'll have a long life, excellent UV stabilization and high impact rating.

As of Aug, 1st you'll be able to purchase these directly from my website (any major credit card or PayPal) www.DamnGoodAutoParts.com or you can send a money order / cashiers check to:

Chris Horn
2011 Pine Lakes Drive
Lima, Ohio
45801

Feel free to send me any questions that you might have.

Thank you,

Chris

I'll have parts for normal sale starting Aug, 1st.
