Hi all,
I'm new to the forum, so a quick introduction. I've down in the Houston area and most of my car restoration experience has been gained putting back together a '54 Buick super convertible that I'm restoring to original. Since apparently I can't resist convertibles, I've recently picked up what is left of a '52 champion convertible (12G). It has some serious rust issues, so looking to see which panels might interchange. From what I understand, the bullet nose from a '50 or '51 should bolt up easily enough, but I'm trying to find out which other panels may interchange. I ordered up both of the body parts catalogs for the '47-'50 and the '51-'52 series where it looks like the convertible has different numbers on the parts than what I'm seeing on the coupes and sedans. Can anyone tell me if there is either a door or trunk lid that would work? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
