Projects Where do I get '32 Buick parts??

Saw this Buick body?? at the NATS swapmeet. a friend just loves it, it was local, so I went and picked it up today, he'll buy it later. The sheetmetal is really nice. Too much missing to be restored so we will build something odd out of it. What would you build, given the opportunity? I need a couple of things, like a "B" pillar, rear doors or skins (for profile), cowl vent lid and dash. Lots of little things down the road. Anyone have any of View attachment 3297975 View attachment 3297977 View attachment 3297979 View attachment 3297981 that stuff or know someone that might? It so nice and looks a lot like a '32 Ford body. Apart from the search function here on the Hamb and Hemmings, where is a good place to look/inquire? Tim

There is a Buick section on the AACA forums. Just don't mention that you are or may be building a rod.

If it was mine, I might do a Phaeton. Love 'em.

 

A good buddy of mine bought 4 fenders in excellent shape for almost nothing because nobody knew what they were for.....did some research to find they were 32 Buicks...sold em' for big $$$$
