Hi Kenyon and List, Thanks for the info. Where can I get parts book or a Hollanders Manual for my 68 convertable. I need to change my front end parts and I would like to get the part #'s first so I can order the parts correctly. Do you know if the window motors, windshield motor from a 74 New yorker would fit that 73 if iI get it? Can you recommend a place taht would have the parts for my 68? Thanks for all your help. --- Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Luis, The way that you phrased this makes it look > like a statement and not a question, so I don't know > if you're asking, but will assume that you are > asking if a 74 driveline goes into a 1968 Imperial. > You might want to pay attention to the driveshaft at > least.
