Title: 66 Front Bumper
Post by: Rochester on March 15, 2022, 07:01:43 PM

Looking for a front bumper for a 66 SKylark.  I know this is a 65 GS forum, but thought someone may know of a 66 bumper for sale

Try this place-  https://www.buickskylarkpart.com/ (https://www.buickskylarkpart.com/)    I just bought a grill for my 65 from him. It was near perfect. Really happy with it. He is not cheap but he only sells quality parts. He told me he sells what he calls "Street Chrome". It has to be really nice or he wont sell it. Worth a call.   :occasion14:

Thanks for the tip, but I am looking for a driver quality front bumper.  His bumpers look very nice, but too pricey for me.

Dear Lou, Rochester, and mid-60s Buick caregivers,

Thanks Lou for the recommendation!  I hope never to need anything from this fellow, but it is good to have another source for these hard to find parts.  It wasn't that long ago that I was so glad not to own a 1950s Buick because the parts were so much harder to find.  Bad luck for me, it is just our bodies that get older - even our cars are getting up there in years!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

Rochester, are you going to be in Bowling Green for the GS Nationals? I could bring a bumper.

No, I am not going to Bowling Green.  Any chance you are going to spring carlisle?

No, but maybe someone else is who will also be at BG. In the meantime I will dig out my bumpers so I can text or email pics just in case. PM me a number.
