    Hey I've come across this 67 Special, 2 dr post car in Florida that has very decent large parts. I can strip it and haul parts to Mich. in the spring. Is there much call for bumpers, doors and fenders?

    I need a trunk trim for a 67 that has little to no pits.

    I'd be interested in a dent and rust free trunk lid if available. Also looking for a jack hold down spring.

    Hi Ed, The black vinyl dash pad is not oem,it was redone and is stitched accross the entire lenght. There are NO tears and apears to be in decent shape. Yours for $40 + shipping.

    The outer skin on the deck lid has typical surface rust pretty much all over. The inner panel of it is bad about 4 inches up, but the latch area is still solid. I could not find a hold down spring.
    Thanks, Ron

    Joe,
    The parts i stripped are in Holiday, the skeleton is north a short distance. The quarters are fine except the bottom behind the wheels. In Mich. they rot in front of the wheel, but these look great because it never had any trim. Also, the doors are rust free. I believe i learned today, that this is a "thin pilar" car and not a "post" car. Till i came across this thing I only parted out 2dr hardtops.

    Dadphelps,
    The front bumper only slightly traumatized at the braces also has some pits (not thru) here / there and has 3 or 4 small holes at the very bottom to the right of the pass. side brace.
    I will pull the heater control Monday.I observed the levers and switch are intact and it might shine with some polishing. It is not an AC car.

    There is no radio. The steering wheel is a plain jane with 3 skinny spokes and a round tri-shield cap. $30 for the steering wheel, and cig. lighter has the typical Skylark black and chrome knob for $15. + shipping.

    Doug,
    Are you aware that this car is likely a 2 dr."thin pilar" car? I thought it was a post car because i was not aware of the thin pilar cars. Sorry if i misled anyone.I parted out 2 dr. hardtops in the past. The doors are in excellent shape. The bottoms are solid without holes. I hope to post pics. soon.
    Ron
