  1. I've got a 29 DeSoto coupe body that a previous owner cut the top off of to make it into a roadster. I have the cowl, dash, doors, rear quarters and the two upper and lower body panels that join the quarters. There's also a pair of windshield uprights from the coupe and various support panels etc., There is no deck lid.

    I have a complete 31/32 Plymouth chassis with suspension, five 33 Plymouth wire wheels, running 230 flathead six, BW T5 five speed tranny, rebuilt Mopar 8 3/4 rear end, two 29 DeSoto radiator grilles, and 29 DeSoto title.

    $2000 firm, may consider trades for Morris Minor convertible, MGA, Willys wagon, small American convertible like Nash or Valiant. Located near Orlando, transport available for a fee. Have pics I can email.

  3. I have a 32 Plymouth/dodge/desoto chassis that is missing the passenger sided rear u-bolts, lower bolt plate for the u-bolts, and the arm that connectst the rear end to the shock absorber. I can provide drivers side pictures if you think you may have what I need.

  5. I am looking for a complete frame or front suspension and axle for a late 20s-early 30s DeSoto, Dodge, or Plymouth car. I have a body that I want to build up as a traditional speedster, (not a rat rod) I bought the body in pieces and did not cut up or ruin anything worth restoring.

    I also need rear suspension, steering gear, headlights, radiator cowl etc. Anything that might be useful building up an old time roadster.

    Thanks, Charlie.

  8. I found a 57 Olds wagon in a salvage yard last weekend. The yard has started crushing and it's on the list. I am looking around to see if there is any interest in parts off the car. I would like to see the parts end up with someone who needs them, and not in the crusher. Car is pretty complete, body panels are straight, but rusty. The top is rotten around the drip edge. Stainless is in good shape, has most if not all the trim, headlights, tailights etc. Interior appears to be intact. If you need parts from this car or know someone who does, let me know. I can email pics.

  9. I need a pair of outer door handles for my 50 Plymouth wagon. Ideally nos would be great, but very good used would be fine also. I am more concernec about the condition of the shaft and it's attachment to the handle than the finish, I can replate a solid part.

  10. I need the plastic insert medallion for a 50 Plymouth, part #1335317. I'd buy good used, nos, or reproduction. I am aware of Emblemagic, but cannot wait a year for the part. And I do look on ebay, hoping to buy from private individual.

  11. You have two basic options, lowering spindles or late model front clip. If all you want is a lower front end the spindles will do the job, and combined with smaller rims and tires you can be down in the weeds. If you want late model drivetrain, coil springs, power steering, front discs etc. an Aspen or Volare clip work well. You can install coil spring suspension on your old frame as well if you are good fabricator. Fatman, Butche's and others sell the spindles, front end kits etc.

  12. I am looking at a 55-56 Dodge Town Panel to part out. It's pretty complete, but pretty tired. If you need anything from this model Dodge, let me know. If I can generate enough interest to warrant buying it I'll save it from the crusher.

  13. I have a customer looking for a Dodge L600/700 type cab, the A100 style flat nose tilt-cab. He only needs the cab and skirts. He already has a heavy duty carhauler chassis with a Cummins diesel installed. Any leads greatly appreciated.

  14. I'm looking for late 50s flathead six, engines or parts, prefer 57-59 model engines. Need 2bbl intake and carb, exhaust manifold, starter, possibly other parts or complete engine. Have tons of mopar parts if you like to trade, also build custom intake/exhausts for flatheads, disc brake conversions etc.
