Re: [FWDLK] intro: new member in need of help

Brian,
   If you get (or can get) a copy of Hemmings Motor News, you will find an
ad there for Len Dawson. He is the first person I write when I need an NOS
part. Some people dislike him because he has the money to outbid and
purchase large NOS stocks, but he then catagorizes them very well , and I
think his services and good stock easily support the prices he charges (some
people say he is expensive).  If you dont want to go NOS try Fremans in
Whitehall Montana. He has 6000 Mopars in several wrecking yards.  You
described the 61 quite well lobsterlike...great!   Roger
