Just found several complete Electra 225's in a local yard. A 67 Electra 4 door that has a beautiful interior with green cloth seats complete, not ripped, with cleaning could be used right as is, no kidding! Door panels with arm rests and all trim in excellent condition. Dash cluster has the clock. Engine is complete from carb to tailshaft and looks like it woud turn and fire up. Already pulled a bunch of parts Saturday. Question: Is the dash pad (I pulled it) the same for 66-67? It looks just like the pad in my 66 Wildcat. NO cracks, rips or warp!!! I am gonna go back again shortly for more. He also has what I believe are complete 68 and 69 Electra 225's which appear untouched. I have a couple of pics of the 67 but never had any luck trying to attach them to this site. Shoot me an email to mnerozzi@hotmail.com and I can shoot you pictures. The yard guy is a tough old coot but Im trying to kill him with kindness to gain access to the other cars. I also saw remains of a 1966-67 Skylark convertible that was rough but had some trim on it. Great trip Saturday! I have not priced out any of the parts I pulled yet. Actually I have to go throught them to remember exactly what I did take. My goal will be to raise money to finish off my projcet 66 Wildcat coupe which I hope to have cruising in May.
Ita there a windshield washer jug in the 68 Electra that is not cracked. I need the one from a 68 only. How many miles are on it? How are the valve covers and the rocker arm assembles?
Going back out to the same yard on Saturday morning weather permitting. It's supposed to rain pretty hard here in Pa, but later in the day, so we'll see. I will try to get pics of all the cars. My goal is to pull the dash cluster w/ clock and some other various dash parts out of the 67 Electra. Correct email address is turbocoupe1@hotmail.com I think I put an old one in the first post. Getting old, losing my mind I think!!!!!!! Love junk'in, could live in a junkyard! It's like I'm a bear coming out of hibernation from the crappy Pa winters. Mike
Cool, let me know about the valve covers. I am looking for some that are in good condition. I painted the ones on my 68 but I want to put good used ones on so I can enter the car as a survior class.
Let me know if you find a non-cracked 3 spoke steering wheel, black preferred but not critical. I'm looking for the une with the tall horn button in the center.
The steering wheel is green and mint. As far as I recall I didn't see a crack and the black "T" shaped horn button is black and had great chrome too Shoot me your email address to turbocoupe1@hotmail.com and I can send you a picture of it. Mike
Kick pannels!!!! Need blue. Brake drums??? Needed for the front of '68 225. Rear cabin lights??? Blue doorlock knobs???? Electric wing window motors??? Antennamotor?
I need a rebuildable rear wheel cylinder as the factory one on my car is to far gone. I want to keep the orginal delco cylinder on it if I can. Any news on the other parts?
