65 GS fender ports (veriports???)
« on: February 16, 2011, 02:38:16 PM »
I can't remember the correct name for these chrome pieces, but they are fender ports. Listed for a 66 GS, but look like 65 GS to me:

No bid yet still early in the process.

Kurt, those don't look like 65 GS to me for some reason.
Maybe for a full size Buick?

Mark, those do look long, but I thought the big car ports had four vains and the GS had three? I guess if someone wants them it would be best to request a part number off the back. They do have some pitting and I doubt that they can be disassembled, plated and then reassembled. If you want, I can go out to my shop and get the part numbers off a set I have on a shelf.

I believe he said they were off of a Skylark, which I doubt. After googling a few different 66 Buicks, my money in on the 1966 Le Sabre being the origin. They might be off a Special, but the pictures of the Special for that year make the ports look like three different parts on each side of the car, just like my 65.

I asked for part number and had no reply, so I suggest passing on these unless you know for sure what they are.
