    Here is a 67 that came to a local yard from Texas about 15 years ago. It was nice then, not so much now:ball: . This yard is in the process of closing and everything is getting crushed. I've picked what I want off of the car for spares, but wanted to see if anybody needs anything before it becomes a tuna can. I've already snagged all of the rear glass and trim, most of the interior, and the entire front end. If anybody needs anything let me know and I will see what it costs and let you know. Please be serious because I have to talk to the owner in person, he no longer answers the phone, and is no longer open on Saturdays. Still has the ST400 and a 340-4, no carb, but the engine is NG. The quarters around the rear wheels are still quite solid although I don't know if he would be willing to do any cutting for me, he really doesn't want to be bothered anymore. Front doors and the left rear door still appear decent but I'd have to check closer as I wasn't interested in them. Three of the door panels are still decent.

    I already have the entire front end in my driveway and will be looking to sell complete as soon as its clean. If it doesn't sell that way I'll pick it apart. All nice stuff with no holes that I can see. A crack or dent here and there but no holes. Truly amazing that this has been in the yard for that long and nobody else scooped it.

    The front bumper is going complete onto my Sporty since its much nicer that what I have, sorry.

    Johnny,

    In the SportWagon (and Lesabre) the 400 refers to the SP400 transmission that was installed, not the engine. Reference my first post, its a 340-4, fan shroud has been gone a long time.

    Pete, Any chance that there may be clips available for the rear side window trim. I need it for the bottoms. I have mine on with velcrow right now. It seems to work but clips would be better. I am also missing the rear dome light lense.
    Woodgrain on mine courtesy of Avery, same folks that make the post it notes. Side trim molding on mine is the stick on kind as the car came to me with most of that trim long gone. It would be nice to have the real trim but????
    Thanks

    Paul,

    The rear window trim clips should be the same as the windshield. Everything on this car was rusted away. The rear dome light lens is not available. The woodgrain trim on the car is mediocre at best. Some pieces are OK, but others have been reattached with screws drilled thru into the body. If you want I can get you pricing on the pieces that are still good, but they would not include the mounting hardware as that would take forever to get off. Let me know

    Bill,

    Roof rack is going on my car, sorry.

    Thanks for looking and I do appreciate the info on the clips. I'll pass on the woodgrain molding trim. Paul

    While driving my 67 sportwagon yesterday the rear outside trim decided to go in a different direction. I was going forward and it was going backwards. Needless to say I am in search of a "new" trim piece. It is the drivers side that goes along the very back of the wagon along the roof section. Any help on this piece or other rear trim pieces is welcome. It seems Year One is out of stock. I'm glad it's not that easy.
    Thanks

    Paul,

    The trim on this wagon was very nice so, unfortunately, I am keeping it to use on my car. Sorry.

    I have a 66 wagon coming in from Ill I found on craigslist. Not sure of condition until I get it home. He assured me all glass and trim was good. He said the car was good with bad floors. I also have a lead on the trim I need. ( I found it after I purchased the 66) I did have my wagon out at a local show and was amazed at the number of people who looked at it.
