Nice car. All 73 - 77 A bodies use the same floor pan. I have a 75 Century myself. Yes V-8 is mostly skylark, but there are a few us that have the 73 - 77 A bodies as well. As well keep an eye open for any rear bumper fillers. They can be hard to find in good shape.

I found this the other day says it is a new part and will fit the Buick.

I do not think that is the right part. Right now they are not listing the rear bumper stuff for the 74-75's. Call them ask if they are going to restock.

The part you have linked looks like for a 76-77 2 door.

I actually think I have the left and center off a '74 Regal. I'm in AZ this week, so can't confirm.

If you are keeping interior original color, it really would be a shame not to stay with the avocado carpet (assuming you can get it). I see why black would be alluring but that green has a spirit all its own.

Found the LH section of rear bumper filler I pulled off a '74, but can't find the center section. Also have a Right Rear wheel opening molding and a RH lower rocker molding...all in nice shape (wouldn't have pulled them if not). Let me know if interested in any of them.

I need the passenger side. RH as you look at it. Thanks for checking though.
