Convertible top cylinder covers
« on: December 10, 2017, 08:16:35 PM »
Don't know what their technical name is, but the textured sheet metal plates that cover the top cylinders and screw (2) to angle brackets inside the rear seat side panels.  Photo attached.  A pair are needed.

Thanks,

Chuck

Might have a pair of these let me check! Give me a day as they might be in my bursting at the seams storage bin!

Mike Garrison has re popped the 68 up..if you have a pattern, he can do the early ones too..the ones he already has, are very nice...mike@mrbuick.com...he has done a few 65 parts...like grille emb supports, hood emblem spacer etc..

I spoke with Mark about these and he confirmed that he doesn't make them for the 65.  So I moved on.  Thankfully, Jon had a set available, so I'm set now.
