torque converter cover (dust shield)

[almagg]

i don't like driving around with those gears exposed and the part is hard to find.
possible it is interchangeable with other buicks of the same time period?

if anyone has a diagram of the part and measurements i was thinking of getting one made at a metal shop.

thanks

you can purchase aftermarket ones at auto zone pep boys ect,,,ect,,,try ebay,,,get a cool chrome one!!!!!!

the two i just saw at autozone do not look like what i had.
meaning they are not the same shape.
need to consider proper fit.

v6 3.1 ltr
automatic

yes,,,a 350 cover won't work!!!!! problem with a wrecking yard is they don't want to deal with small crap like that,,,,,probably laying in the back seat of many wrecks out there...sweet talk one of them,,,that stuff is out there.......
