Dear mid-60s parts hounds,

There is a listing on eBay which claims to be: "NOS 1964 Buick Skylark Special Chrome Fender Trim Emblem Le Sabre X3"

https://www.ebay.com/itm/285767273258

I can't make much sense of these parts from the supplied pictures.  Which Buick (if even a Buick) to these emblems belong to?

A curious mind would like to know!

Hi,

Looks similar to 64 Special port emblems and believe there is a right and left hand versions. Haven't looked closely at my 64 sitting out back in a while.

65 Special ports are different from 64.

Not sure what ports on a Lasbre

Skylark in 64 and 65 had ports on Spear 64 wide full length of fender, 65 narrow Chrome Spear from wheel well to door.

Regards,
Jim

Dear Jim, Jim, and mid-60s Buick parts hounds,

Thanks for your replies.

Looks similar to 64 Special port emblems and believe there is a right and left hand versions. Haven't looked closely at my 64 sitting out back in a while.

I didn't think to check what the 1964 Specials looked like.  Thanks to your clue, I did some quick viewing of images on the web and that seems to be the match.  The Specials were indeed different than the Skylarks.

Not sure what ports on a Lasbre

I did look up some images for the Le Sabre and that didn't seem to be a match.  It was that failure that made me decide it was worth a post because of my confusion!

Thanks again.

Edouard

Yes, 1964 Special venti-ports.

This is my '64 Special back in the 70s.

I had to ask because often us car nuts often know more about the parts on eBay than the vendors!
