Re: 64 Classic Parts

[Tom Jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

Parts worth getting and removable with a phillips screwdriver,
mostly, and I think you could unload them:


Tail light assemblies esp. with good chrome and lenses.

The grille!!! Even if in fair condition; these are hard to find
and good ones are $$$. Headlamp doors of course.


Worth getting on general principles are all the interior trim
parts, and the door panels if they're any good -- they often are
for some reason.

The kick panels left and right, and the air vent slide if the
handles aren't broken off (often are).

All removable dash knobs, cigarette lighter (for the knob), radio
knobs. If 64 has AM/FM, take that! (I think not til 65?)

Seat belts if good (often frayed/sun bleached).

Sill kick panels (alum) if not ruinated. Mirrors inside and out,
esp. pass. side.

I think Gwen was looking for the lamp assembly that illuminates
the parking brake indicator jewel; the lamp ass'y was an option!
If not, I want that! There must be a corresponding switch on the
parking brake pedal.

The dash gauge cluster is easy to remove if you have at least two
elbows to undo the speedo cable.
