This appeared to be very helpful in finding parts for old Buicks. However, most of the web sites and email addresses were no longer in use. I don't know how old this information is. I also got a virus in my computer that could only have come from one of these sources. There is some good info available, but it certainly needs to be rechecked and republished as this version is not much good.
