Classic Cars

[RAJohnson]

Any one know of some good websites for picking up parts for a classic car. I just picked up a 69 Buick Skylark and am going to need a few parts, Tail light, grill and such.



I'm not sure if this is the correct forum But then if its not some one will let me know :-laf :-laf



Thanks, Rob

Best place I can think of is eBay.

Year One

I had a '69 Camaro (wish I still did... ) and remember looking at their catalog a lot. I had thoughts of building a complete car with ordered parts from Year One.



Hope this helps,

John

x2 on the Ebay suggestion. There are alot of original parts for all sorts of cars on there, so it might be worth a look.

I musst be showing my age, when I think of a "classic car" i think of Packards, Model T's, etc. when I read 69 Skylark, I thougth to myself I drove a 69 once and it wasnt that old when i did.

In one of the car clubs I belong to, modern cars begin with model year 1965 and up. The major breaks are pre-war (WWII), post-war, and modern.



But any car prior to the 1972 US emissions requirements fiasco is a classic in my mind. So take your 69 Skylark, do an engine swap, and rebadge it as a Grand Sport muscle car! Even the clones are bring top dollar if done well.



Cheers!

Check out this place. They've been around awhile. http://www.postonbuick.com/



Back when I was a teenager, I bought a used 1970 GS 455 w/Ram Air, Gold Lacquer paint, white interior (hated that), and the factory chrome and black mag wheels. I couldn't afford to keep fuel in the thing as a low paid teen. I still regret letting that car go. It was a torque monster... . hmmm sorta like the cummins but, lighter.
