   Just wanted to let all the owners of 65 Specials that James of Bestoffercounts.com in Sellersville PA is reproducing the 4 pc tail light gasket set for the 1965 Buick Special for $32.99 a set. I called him yesterday afternoon to order a set and thank him for taking the time to have this item reproduced. These items can be purchased thru Ebay or give James a call at 215-767-0845. He also sells other Buick parts too.  :thumbsup:

Dear Tony and mid-60s Buick caregivers,

I wasn't aware of this outfit so thanks for posting!  I've added it to my vast collection of Buick parts bookmarks!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

  Hi Edouard, It's always good news when we get a needed part reproduced for our Buick's. I've purchased several items from James and it's nice to deal with an owner operated business. You don't have to press 1 for assistance then wait on hold for 20 minutes, then hear a click and get disconnected !!!  :nono:  James has always been courteous & professional, In this crazy world that means a lot to me.
   I'm going to call James tomorrow and ask him if he could have the license plate light gasket reproduced for our Specials/Skylarks. I remember that you posted information on how to cut out a gasket from the unused portion of a gasket stamping. It was a great idea that I was going to try this winter, but lets see if he could have it mass produced.  :wave:

I don't know if having a template would facilitate the process at all, but I did make one as part of my efforts.  It is attached to the original posting:

If that would help, I certainly could forward to James the file in any format I can convert it to!

Thanks for trying to see if this gasket could be mass produced!
