[Chrysler300] Need parts for 1957 Chrysler 300C

[Ray Melton <rfmelton@xxxxxxx>]

Hello  All --

 

In the midst of restoring my late father's 1957 Chrysler 300C, I find that I
need the items shown below; I've struck out at half a dozen of the major
Mopar salvage yards - they either don't have the parts or sound like they
don't really want to mess with finding/removing them!

 

FAN FOR  A/C  CAR:      Six blades, 18" diameter, large 1.875" hole in
center, held to fan clutch by four 5/16" bolts on 3.25" centers.      I
believe these fans were also supplied on the big-hemi Chryslers, Imperials
and DeSotos in 1957 & 1958 WITH FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING ONLY.       (most
non-A/C cars did not have a fan clutch and therefore had no big hole in the
center.)

 

RIGHT REAR LOWER SHOCK ABSORBER MOUNTING PLATE WITH STUD:  This is the heavy
steel plate under the leaf spring(s) which is held in place by the two
U-bolts over the axle.  Part No. 1820438 is stamped on the lower surface.
My shock mounting stud broke off upon removing the nut.  I believe this same
part would also be found on 1957-1958 Chryslers, Imperials and DeSotos.   If
you can safely remove just the stud (with nuts)from the plate (either left
or right side), that stud part is actually all I need. 

 

Thanks for any help.
