I can relate to this too.
Even as an administrator, I have no reference to someone in regards to the user name.
Sometimes makes it difficult to know who has e-mailed or pm'd me.

Sure Chris! Are looking for UPPER and LOWER control arms?
Wheelz, Tampa Bay

Lowers and the horn relay please to 60631 Thanks Chris :thumbsup:

Well guys...the foedoe is home now. It has quite a bit of nice used parts. Some parts like the VERY NICE door emblems...hood ornament and taillight center emblem, he decided to keep. :BangHead: arrrgh. Still, this car sports good stuff. I will be posting pix of stuff you guys are in line for, over the next few days.
I am planning to move fairly fast on parting this car out, so I say in advance, list your wants/needs and Thanx for your continued interest.
First group of pix: BRAKE BOOSTER for CHUCK...its not real good, pitted and NO Delco Morraine stamping. May be a replacement. sorry.
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
Thanks Dennis. Yeah, that one looks just about like the one I have. Sorry, I'll have to pass.
By the way, my restorer, who has done a ton of Pontiacs with these boosters tells me that the factory original boosters from Delco Moraine did not have it stamped into the face of the booster. Only the service parts were stamped. So I'm quite sure this one is original to the car.
Thanks again and good luck with your part sales!
Chuck

This Group of A/C pix for Kevin Rollaround: It appears everyting is intact with the exception fo the compressor and brackets... dash vents, center dash vent, heater box and plastic directive manifold, blower box, fan, hoses, condensor and original mounting brackets, muffler, receiver/dryer, all under hood lines, connectors, relay, cables and dash control ( not shown but in a box with other parts) it certainly looks like its all there! EXCELLENT for someone wanting all original 65 GS A/C parts under their hood!!!
I was just informed: Dennis, Just in case you are not aware, the condenser mounting brackets and the A/C hoses that attach to the compressor are different between a Skylark and a GS. Loren
ThanX! No. I did not know that... something to consider all you a/c guys...
Wheelz, Tampa Bay

Dan.... Standard prake bad, ie: No POWER BRAKES brake pedal pad w/ metal trim??? I havent taken a good look at the front sig turnal buckets yet but they look usable and non rusted out.... ..and YES there is a clock delete plate!
IN fact the instrument panel looks pretty nice!
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
for CHRIS... the horn relay (in this pix somewhere?? :icon_scratch: and the rear lower control arms, surface rust only...appear solid.. however, hope you are not inna hurry as they may be one of the last items to be removed :icon_tongue:.... :
-

Thanks Wheelz! I think I will take the brake pedal pad and the parking brake pad if they are the original ones (and if they're cheap :) ) I will put them on my survivor.
Be veryyyyyy careful removing the turn signal buckets - the studs will snap easily.
Keep me posted. Thanks!
-
Dan and all you guys. . , ThanX for your interest in parts.
My wife and I have been fighting that dern flu thing goin round since last wednesday, walked off the Praise team platform just after completing our 8 song set sunday morning, a ball of sweat, cold and trembling...went right home and crashed....found out Pastor requested an alter call and The Team played 2 more songs WITHOUT A DRUMMER.... ugh. Can you say Worhsip Music UNPLUGGED?
I finally got to see the Doc noon today and was subscribed me ZPAK...Keep ya posted on my recovery!
I am familiar with the studs twisting off on the sig turnal buckets...because of that, I gathered some energy today and went out sprayed PBBlaster on them along with bumper bolts, core support bolts, hood hinges..etc...
LET THE DISMANTLIBNG BEGIN!!! :tongue3:
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
Is the left hand hood hinge spoken for?
-
uhhYUP. . .it IS now! You're in line! :headbang:
-

Thanks
Morrie

Morrie
I can check that in a Buick parts book for you.
Loren
-
YES. . . Please DO, Loren! It would be good info to know the diffs...
Wheelz, Tampa Bay

Checked my Buick parts book
Listing shows : Hood hinge 64-65 Special 1366260 -R 261 -L
So there is only one style, used in 1964 and 1965. Part number ending 260 is for the right side, part number 261 is for the left side.
It is listed as " Special ", because that is the base model of the Skylark and Gran Sport.
Parts book also lists the hood springs as applicable 1963- 1967. Was surprised by that one.
Original finish was a dark grey phosphate finish. Happen to have a pair of NOS hinges here [not for sale] , so I could post pictures if anyone is interested.

Please do. I'd love to see them.
Thanks,

I like that idea also,and what is a good coating or color to use on them?
-
Is this piece of the throttle linkage still available and is it complete? Mine is missing the bit on the end where it attaches to the carb... Please and thanks!

YIP! Sure is... :thumbsup: do you need switch and all linkages?? :dontknow:
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
Wheelz,
If bob_o does not want the switch I will take it if it isn't broken.
Dan

Wheelz,

Looks as if the metal hinged part is missing and the end is cut off.
Loren
-
MEthinx it might be just the camera angle but it appears its all there... I'll post more pix when I begin disassembling the car...
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
wheelz, it looks like what I need is actually the Ball Stud that attaches to the carb linkage.. You don't have one of those little bits by any chance, do ya?
-
Wheelz,
Does this car have the floor brackets in the rear for rear seat belts?
And if so, would you be willing to cut those chunks of floor out and ship?
Please let me know - thanks!
Mark
-
Bob-O... I may have a ball and ch a i n..OOPS, I mean Ball and Stud... :laughing3: I'll look.
Mark, I dunno IF the rear had seat belt zer not... I'll look.
After over 10 days of fighting this derned flu/cold/ whatever... I am just now starting to feel like I have a little energy and will try to get to this car soon. PROMISE.
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
Mark,
If Dennis doesn't have the rear seat belt mounts, I have them on my 4-door parts car. Don't know if they'll fit on a hardtop, but available if Dennis comes up empty.
Chuck
-
Wheelz,
Just let me know. I've had that same crud. Flu, then a real nice hacking cough. Still have the cough...
Chuck,
Sounds good, thanks!
Mark
-
The seat belt mounting plates that are spot welded to the under/backside of the rear floor are the same between the 2dr and 4 dr. models.
-
Nope. My 65 foedoe donor car does NOT have rear beat selt brackets!!! Sorry I can't heppya. :crybaby2:
-
Ok, thanks for checking back!

Thank you, hope you're feelin' better :thumbsup:
-
wheelz, by any chance do you have the cooling fan off of this car? Can't find an oem one anywhere :/
-
well um, ya mean radiator fan? or A/C blower fan for cooling interior?? BTW this foedoe didnt have a motor but I think I have one maybe two original 300 4 blade radiator fans...
Wheelz, Tampa Bay
-
Yup, radiator fan. If you have one, how much you want for it?
-
bob-o,
If Dennis doesn't have what you need, and if you are looking for a fan for a 300 with A/C, I have an original 7-blade fan with clutch. I also have the shroud to go with it if needed. PM me if Dennis doesn't have what you need.
Chuck
-
Chuck, my car does have AC, but I've removed all AC components from the engine bay as I will be going with Vintage Air in the future. I do have a shroud for the car though.
-
Cool! (Pun intended) :laughing7:
Not sure what that means in terms of the type of fan you are looking for. Looks like you've got a couple of options here.
Chuck
-
Ok. I guess for now I just need a standard (non-clutch) style fan. I suppose I can eventually find an oem Clutch Fan.
Bob
-
Bob,
Just to be clear, I have an OEM fan with clutch from a '65 300 nailhead if that's what you're looking for. Or are you saying you want to delay that purchase for awhile?
Picture below.
Chuck
-
Dear Bob, Chuck, and mid-60s Buick coolcats! . . . :glasses9:
Chuck, my car does have AC, but I've removed all AC components from the engine bay as I will be going with Vintage Air in the future. I do have a shroud for the car though.
Bob, what engine will be driving this this Vintage Air compressor? One big problems with Vintage Air is finding a bracket to support the Sanden compressor. Have you solved this problem?
Cheers, Edouard :occasion14:

Yeah not looking for a clutch fan at the moment. Just a regular style fan.

If you decide to go the Vintage Air route, I can probably give you some pointers because my trusty 1965 Buick Special wagon has been upgraded to Vintage Air (she used to only have "roll down the windows" air! :laughing7: ). There are some tricks to get Vintage Air to work with a 1964-5 Buick A-body (perhaps others.)
Unfortunately one serious obstacle is mounting the Sanden compressor. I had a custom big-block Buick engine built for my wagon and the engine builder managed to splice the Sanden compressor bracket into a Buick big-block bracket for the AC compressor of the day. You might need to do the same if you want to stick with the Buick 340 that's in your 'Lark right now.
Of course you could always go for a Buick big-block!! Somebody is now making brackets for the Sanden compressor for that engine. Unfortunately, it may be a bit of a hard sell to insist you need a Buick big-block just because it is the only Buick engine right now with an "off the rack" bracket for the Vintage Air compressor! :laughing7:
Cheers, Edouard :occasion14:
-

There was a 7 blade fan available (non-clutch) that works very well. I'd suggest one of those over the 4 blade ones.

Haha, well swapping motors to get the right bracket is a bit overkill for me :laughing1:. Besides, my 340 has already been rebuilt and never fired, so I'll be sticking with it for quite some time. Also, I work with Laser Measurement devices for a living, so I'll probably just 3D scan the mounting holes of the 340 head in relation to the existing pulleys and then scan the hole locations of what ever pump I use. I can then use that data to reverse engineer a bracket that works for both! Easier said than done, but still in the realm of possibility :occasion14:

Cool. I've found a few universal 7 blade flex fans that supposedly fit the 300/340 water pump. Are those the ones you're talking about?

Hey BOB-O I have a couple solid mount fans, do you need a spacer as well? Just send me a PM
