I have some that unfortunately I overpaid for when I thought one of mine was lost.  But I am willing to take a loss.  shoot me a pm.  They need new rubber.   I understand that some places can rebuild them.  (Steele?  anyone know?)   If your not a purist I know that there were some new ones available  I saw some months ago that work which are pretty cheap.

Rob,

Motor mounts can be revulcanized by Steele. Buick Farm has new motor mounts ready to go.

Otherwise there are the unique frame mounts and cast iron adaptors that bolt to the engine.

I had several sets of the mounts made a few years ago.  I had a machine shop make the steel pieces and sent them to Steele Rubber to vulcanized the rubber part.  I used one set on my car and sold 2 more sets.  I have one set left.  These are perfect reproductions that are indistinguishable from the OEM part.  I will match Buick Farm price of $69 per mount.  Send me a PM if you want them.

Hi. Did you locate the motor PLATES and frame pads yet?  I may have one last set...  :icon_scratch:
I also have a nice 2 speed console with shifter, and many other 65 GS parts.  PM me a list of what you need and I'll see if I can helpya out!   :headbang:
