Hi Buick Netherlands, welcome to the Buick Club.
We also have a Buick, but a Buick Riviera T-Type.
And we also live in the Netherlands.
Try joining the Dutch Buick Club in the Netherlands,
www.dutchbuickclub.nl gerard@dutchbuickclub.nl

They might be able to help. They have meetings, & a Forum.

Otherwise you could try The Cruise Brothers, we are also members.
They have every month a meeting in Den-Haag, and there are all sorts
of Book Stalls, that have all sorts of Buick Manuals.
Take a look at their internet site www.cruisebrothers.nl

Success!

Hi, ignore the other posting, I am not able to delete it.
I gave you the wrong book, the other posting was only for Buick Century´s up to 1987.
This one is the correct one, it is for the Buick Century´s up to 1987.
I got it from http://www.themotorbookstore.com/regal.html
Hope this is helpful.
