    The interior is light blue (aqua?) carpet/seats, with dark blue dash. Would anyone have a replacement steering wheel, door panels, seat belts, or other convertible cylinder/hydraulic parts?

    cougar,
    Legendary interiors reproduces the door panels. A steering wheel isnt difficult to find. Seat belts would be difficult to find in good condition, and in that color. It would probably be best to find good belts and dye them. Cylinders are also repoed and available from many sources. If you part the car out please let me know as Im looking for blue interior pieces. Does the car have bucket seats, A/C?

    Thanks,

    Patrick

    Source for convertible top hydraulic cylinders

    I found this website for much of what I need, including the cylinders. They're pricy on the convertible stuff, at least it seems that way. I've searched high and low on all groups, and I can't find a single one that has a good steering wheel. Same goes for the grille/tri-shield.

    I thought I had a winner for my radio and bezel via eBay (19.99 original bid), but the seller somehow got the axe from eBay sam day.

    Try this site for almost all of your purchases and let me know if good source. http://www.opgi.com/?src=overture.

    I'm also curious to know if anyone has bought rechromed/painted instrument bezels from this website: http://www.mrgusa.com/rechrome.htm. $200 for the instrument bezel, and roughly $50 each for the under-steering-column plastic piece (rechromed/painted and detailed) and radio bezel sounds like a really sweet deal.

    Anyone rechromed '68 Skylark convertible instrument and radio bezels?

    I'm hoping to see good closeup pictures of the bezels after returned by whoever you had them rechromed/detailed/painted. Please send to ewojcieszak@yahoo.com if too large for this forum. Thanks.
