I would like some detailed pictures of 68 Buick interior door panels. I have also heard that the front arm rests are longer than those of the standard Chevrolet. So any measurements would also be appreciated.

Might be easier to just go look at a 1968 Buick Skylark for sale on eBay.

Thank you for the reply. Does that make the armrest trim panel overall length about 20 1/2 inches?

Thanks

Thanks for the replies.

This is clearest pic i could find. Does it appear correct?

If so does anyone reproduce the longer armrests and backing plates?

Also from original appearing rear arm rests I have seen it looks like the Buicks may not have had the ribbed ash trays. Does anyone know for sure?

Thanks
