Rear Clip (in California)

[kcombs]

I still have this nice rear clip from a 1965 Skylark four door. This is just what you need if you need to back half your 1965 GS. It is located in zip code 95453 and I would let the trailer go with the rear clip. Rear clip is $500 and the trailer would be $200. Trailer has been sitting for five years, so condition is unknown, tires are old. Might consider cutting pieces if you want really good patch panels for your quarter panels.

Hi, do you still have the clip?  Could you grab me more photos, quarters and wheelhouses?  Thanks!  John

Yes, it is still available. Are you in the Northern California area? I’ll take some more pictures of it, you won’t find a nicer rear clip in this area.

Thanks Kurt!

It is still sitting tail up on my little trailer I brought it home on many years ago. I hate to cut it up, but if no takers soon I will cut into patch panels for rusty quarter panels and skylark taillight patch panels. It has to go and I am not to want to use it (until after it is gone!) at this time. Other projects.

I really wish it was a 2-door....

Well this really is the end of this rear clip. It is from a four door Skylark but can be used to back-half a two door Skylark. This would give you good sheet metal for your quarter panels, wheel wells and wheel well opening all the way around, taillights panel, trunk floor and a good trunk lid. I’ll throw in a panel that fits between the trunk lid and the rear glass. I want to keep the trailer and its tires have gotten too old to be used on the road. I will take pictures tomorrow. Located in Lakeport, CA.
I am posting here first and will list on V8buick.com next week. Then I will cut it up if there are no takers.
Price is still $500.

Crazy this hasn't sold. If I was doing a '65 that needed rust repair...

Dang! Wish this was closer.

Hi Kurt,
If you come to cutting up the rear clip, I would like to be in line for the taillight surrounds and the lower LHS corner.

Just sent a PM.
Ready and willing to make the drive.

This is just what we need?

Much thanks,
Steve

Steve:
The rear clip will replace your trunk floor all the way to the sheet metal seam under the back seat. It will also fix rust around the rear wheel well opening if needed. It will require a butt weld in the area that has chrome trim on a non-GS. If you are okay with laying out where to cut and making the welds, it is the best solution to rusty quarter panels and trunk floor you will find. I will get back to you soon.

Rear clip is sold! Went to a new home in California.
