Hmmmm ,  these are very tempting . Wish they had the ventiport cutouts in them .

Pretty sure someone on here has a pattern to cut ventiport holes. Equally sure you have the skill to cut the holes.

If they are Skylark and have the factory moulding holes already drilled?..I believe one of the pre-drilled holes is already in  the correct spot for ventiports. I had to replace one of my fenders and it was easier than I expected. You can line up the stud on the ventiport and mark your pattern. After that I took a cut off wheel and made an X pattern in each of the rectangles connecting the corners. Just have to be careful and trim holes slowly with a half worn out wheel so it fits into the rectangle. Those fenders are a steal if you need them?.I have never seen a nos set before.

  Thanks for the offer,

I could see someone with the proper skills using them to make some fiberglass molds. Nos ANYTHING is rarely available for 65 Buick these days. Our cars just aren?t plentiful enough to repop many large items so costs are usually higher than returns. Still a really cool find for the guy needing them.

 Fiberglass fenders would be a great item for the racers. I still have a fiberglass hood that I bought many years ago for a planned bracket car. There used to be front and rear bumpers made also by a guy in Ohio if I recall correctly.

Yes hidden from the world! My mom didn’t even know where these were! Lol Yes they are Skylark! I have only seen one gs nos fender and I didn’t buy it because I thought it was to much and had some dents lol would never do that now! To use these on a gs the very front hole has to be welded up and part of a rear one then the cut outs put in! The Three holes for the Skylark have to be drilled too! I have a template made from  a gs fender that bolts up to the drill holes and then the slots can be cut! Going to check on having some non gs fenders water jet cut for one of my cars!
