I have a low mileage 41 Saratoga with super nice original dash plastic and a non working clock. I had the radio out for repair and could not see exactly how the clock is removed. If there was a chance of breaking the plastic while removing the clock, I would probably just leave it as is. Thought I'd put it out there to all the Mopar experts. Ed

Was able to get these parts from Pete, thank you.

Nice car. What's with the Mecum plate, if I was flipping it I would take it off.

I have a very early Hupp Skylark and need one window crank and an ashtray if anyone may have spares. The crank has a chrome knob, Thanks.

That number may have been all body types.

Here is my 41. AJ has seen this one. 14000 original miles super nice I am lucky to have it. I also question those production numbers I remember looking but can’t remember exactly but more like a couple hundred is what I remember.

Has anyone bought a laser rust and paint removal tool that works decent and is affordable? Say around $5000. I have been doing most of my own stripping with a small sand blaster, dirty and need lots of air, and tried one of those pressure washer sand blasters and neither are that great. Sure is handy to just do it yourself, but haven't found the right method yet. Ed

Casually looking for one of there, think I'll keep looking.

The two doors were much less stogy looking. especially the Cornets with the slanted B pillar.

Thanks for all the good info!! Yes knew I need a RB trans, wasn't there a difference in crank bolts/flex plate or pilot hub size too in the early 60's? I'm printing your posts to keep this information.

Oh..... the plot thickens. Back to trying to find a 65 trans and maybe that two cable dash shifter. Might be looking a while. Thanks for the information. One more question, what did the motorhomes use that had a similar dash shifter, older A vans too I think? Must have been a cable?

Which is exactly what you said!

Thanks for your reply, learning more about what I need every day. I have a pic of one from one of these trucks and it used a bolt on flange on the rear, have been told both were used. One fellow told me the flange one was used on 4 speed cars, I'm not sure. He's sending me a couple more pics of his trans and shifter I hope. Can't quite visualize how that dash shifter would work with two cables. If i used an earlier one they all had the trans park brake due to the Lockheed rear brakes and taper axle rear end. The truck currently has a Poly and single cable shifter trans in it. My plan B would be to maybe leave the single cable shifter in the dash and look into a 66 trans, are they single cable? Probably slip yoke too.

I am looking for a 65 Torque flite transmission and dash shifter for big block. I believe this is a one year only transmission with two cables, one for the gear selector and one for park. Looking for the shifter that goes with this also. This is to restore a 65 CSS HPP truck. Leads appreciated also, thanks.

It's the flat six, yes that dash paint I hadn't seen that nice before either.
