Rear door arm rest for a Special? (Re: Rear arm rest)

Dear oldblueoval and 65GS.com parts hounds,

Hello, all. I'm looking for a passenger  side rear arm rest. Pretty much any condition. Thanks in advance. Picture is of the drivers side one that I have.

So is this the rear door arm rest for say a Buick Special?  Here is the driver's side rest on my 1965 Buick Special wagon:



Here is a view more from the top:



If that is what you want, then Original Parts Group has reproductions for everything except perhaps the correct color armrest cushion.  Here is the arm rest base as an example:

That might be more than you were planning on spending, but you can just buy all the parts "off the rack."  My wagon has the OPGI reproductions and as you can see they do look very nice.  The only thing that didn't come from OPGI was the arm rest cushion because they didn't have one in Seafoam green.

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

Sorry that took so long to respond, those look fine to me. let me know what you're thinking price wise. I can dye the pad to match and the wear and tear will match the rest of the interior near perfect. Thanks so much.

Thanks 455! Price is fine. Like I said, I need the passenger side. Shipping would be to, John Pope/9206 N. 24th Ave./Harvel, Il. 62538. Just let me know a total and I'll get a payment off to you. That might fit in a USPS OneRate package. Thanks very much in advance!  :hello2:
