Thanks Wild!

I suspect some of the bulbs illuminating my 60 LeSabre speedo cluster are either burned out or just "tired". Does anyone know: A. What size bulbs would fit and B. How to get at them to replace them?...

Try this place online out in CA. I saw a 60 LeSabre like mine sporting a dual chamber master cylinder so I emailed the guy and that is where he got his from in kit form. The site is easy to search,...

My thought would be that if you're careful, yes. If there are no major abrasions or tears after removal I would give it a shot. Seat it back up as close to the exact same positions and give it a...

My 1960 LeSabre with the 364 Nailhead is having an issue: I turn the ignition "on" step on the gas pedal and it starts; However the engine may idle roughly like it wants to stall out so I have to rev...

Okay, I found an older thread on this topic and the poster was directed to classicbuicks.com They currently list a shock absorber for the front of the '60 LeSabre as a part number SA82087. I googled...

It works surprisingly well for me even with the top down. It all adds up to personal preference. If you have the car apart and you have access to the unit for it, why not? You don't have to use it...

Does anyone know the front and rear part number for modern shock absorbers such as Monroe Gas filled shocks that will work on my 1960 LeSabre? :shield:

Thanks so much for the info! :thumbsup:

Checked my tires, they are size P215/75 R15, does that mean your tires have a higher sidewall?

Not speaking of old cars, just convertibles in general. In addition to my 60 LeSabre which is a convertible without a/c, and my 2006 convertible Pontiac Solstice roadster with a/c, I would say the...

Thanks "OOPSETTER1" I appreciate the information. I will check my tire size tonight. I know the huge wheelbase in conjunction with the low profile of the car may play a part in the bottoming out but...

Thanks for the suggestion Maikl. I know there is a lot of slop in the gear lever area on the column. Anyone familiar with adjusting or setting this area? Is it mechanical or electric? :shield:

As you all know by now I'm new to old Buicks so here's a couple more questions I hope someone can assit me with. I hope this is the right place for Suspension questions. Looking at the underside of...

Is this a puzzler or common: Had the Dynaflow rebuilt on my '60 LeSabre w/364 c.i. engine by a trans shop specializing in older cars. The reason I took it there was the car sometimes would not move...

Thanks for the info Doc. I was hoping to hear that. The engine runs real smooth and it didn't seem anything was wrong. As with any newly accquired vehicle you'll have that feeling out process with it...

Thanks for the leads on parts, I really appreciate it!:thumbsup:

Hi folks
Got the LeSabre out of the garage yesterday and idled it in the driveway for about 20 minutes. The only time the breather smoked was after I shut it off. Idea's, diagnosis, normal, what?...

My wipers/washer do not work. I am looking to remedy this situation. Just looking for direction as to where I may find a new motor or switch w/pump feature if either or both turn out to be the...

Thanks for the response and jumping off point Nailheadnut. I will check that out as soon as it quits raining here in Michigan and I can pull the car out of the garage. I noticed the smoke from the...

:waving: Hi folks, this is my first post here (& most likely, not my last). I picked up a 1960 Buick LeSabre. I am pretty good with hand tools but by no means do I even pretend to be a mechanic. Two...
