    Yep. The 3-4 holes on either side. I think the earlier Buicks had 3 and the older had 4. Not sure about that since I'm not that fimilar with Buicks.

    If you can't find any old ones, the new Buick Lucerne has them in the fenders you could get brand new ones instead of old pitted pot metal from the 50's

    Also there were a variety of shapes within those years, from round (e.g. 55) to ovoid, to stretched ovoid. Any of those of any more interest than the other? BTW, three was for the bottom of the line models, 4 for the top.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
