Hood Ornament needed.

[WPlainsDrifter]

I have a 1978 Buick LaSabre Sport Coupe Turbo. I am missing the original hood ornament. The orginal was square and said "Turbo." I'm told the Regal had the same ornament. Please let me know if you have one available. Thanks.

I think this one may work....It's for the 80's turbo cars, (my '81 uses it). Not sure if the 78's were the same. It's listed for 83's and up but the early 80's were the same. I think only the base were it sits is slightly differant.

Hood Ornament

A picture would be awsome. Should be square and say turbo. Thanks for your reply.

The tops are all the same. The bases change by year and model.

Will an '87 Regal fit on a '79 Regal?

me too, I have a turbo one from an 87 and a regular from the 79.

Good point, I should have mentioned that. Yes, they can easily be swapped.

From what I have seen, the earlier the top part was made, the better the quality.
