Title: Questions about some Fusick parts.
Post by: elagache on May 18, 2019, 04:34:10 PM

Dear mid-60s Buick caregivers,

(http://www.canebas.org/WeatherCat/Forum_support_documents/Custom_emoticons/wink_smile_triangle.gif) . . . . . So why didn't you guys tell me that Biquette was missing two side hood bumpers when I ordered an accelerator pedal from Fusick's a few months back? . . . . . (http://www.canebas.org/WeatherCat/Forum_support_documents/Custom_emoticons/D'oh.gif)

Trying to avoid a similar folly, I went through the parts 65 Skylark and GS Parts Sources thread looking for things I might have overlooked:

Thanks Mark for this invaluable resource!  :thumbsup:

I also thumbed through the Fusick catalog looking for items that I might "need" (or at least really want! . . . .  (http://www.canebas.org/WeatherCat/Forum_support_documents/Custom_emoticons/bouncey.gif) )

I came across the station wagon tailgate window outer sweeper:

Biquette's looks in decent shape, but it is good to know somebody has these.

Fusick has an ashtray insert for a 1968-89 Cutlass that sure looks very similar to Biquette's:

Does anybody know if this would fit our cars?

Fusick has a reproduction they claim of a GM dealer accessory compass:

Does anybody know anything about these?

Finally, Fusick has a Jack Shaft Rubber Insulator that was on 1968-77 cars:

While not stock, it might be a nice touch on a car where the jack shaft could do some damage otherwise.  My Dad solved this problem more simply by wrapping the jack shaft in cloth!

Finally, can anybody think of something I could check on Biquette that Fusick carries, but I wouldn't be clever enough to think of myself?  :icon_scratch:

Have a nice rest of the weekend!  :sunny:

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:
