    Frank, I think I'm going to hold on to them.

    Don, it looks like it's going to be about $25+ shipping for the door panels, they are $12 a piece. I'll get pics of them tomarrow. They are dirty and wrinkled around the arm rest area like most of them are. But there are no rips or tears. Factory white door panels can't be too easy to come by.

    greasemonkey, there are only a 4 lug 8 inchers in there. One of them does have 300 gear though.

    You and about 50 more of us...These are probably the hardest parts to come by. Maybe we could get someone to fabricate them out of fiberglass...maybe carbon graphite... :rolleyes: (this is a hint)

    Well, I met Earl down at Pull-A-Part at 4 this afternoon. Was going to get him a 3.00 rear gear out of the blue '70 I got my front valance off of last month. Just as we got there it started pouring down rain. When that let up we decided we may as well walk the yard and get the info off that Sprint for Dennis. Earl went ahead and got the rear valance off the Sprint which I left the other day because I ran out of money and already have 3 spare rear valances hanging in my shed.

    Dennis, the info off the Sprint (pretty sure it's a Sprint?) is:

    2K91T162980

    Body: 62A

    Color: 9A

    Trim: RB

    Trans: W

    Axel: 3

    DSO: 21

    The address of the junkyard the car is in is:

    1540 Henrico Road
    Conley, GA 30288

    Real shame someone junked that car. It's got dents and dings, but not hardly a speck of rust to be found. Very solid car and very restoreable. It's in way better shape then my '72 is. Wish there was some way I could save the whole car it. :(
