Hi all, In my search for a very good to like new windshield for my 59 Ply. Sub., I was at a yard approx. 70 miles from my home today. Did find a couple of windshields...one is all foggy, and the other two were smashed. I did however come across these: 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible...for parts only. Seems to have all roof pieces, some side trim in good shape, Phoenix emblems on sides, side glass. This car has a 318 with 4 barrel. The guy would not give me a price for the convert parts, but said he wanted $200. for the intake, carb..orig. AFB and I think the air filter was there. There is also a 58/59?Chrysler with front bumper wings in decent shape, would need rechroming. Also a 57 Chrysler, not great, some side trim and glass. Another 60 Dodge, 4 dr. Seneca for parts. A stripped 59 Dodge 2 dr.hdtp., a 57 Savoy 4 dr., not much there, and a 58 wagon, lots of rust not much else. I need to go back with some tools, as I can use a part off the wagon. This guy is hard to deal with, will not sell whole cars, only parts. The only thing I came away with today was a Jiffy Jet washer bag for the 59's & ???... have not tested for leaks, or cleaned yet, but should be a decent one. Speaking of windshields...does anyone have a cross reference for what all years and models used the same windshield as the 59 Ply. 2 dr. hardtops and convertibles? Some of the glass I saw today looks like it is the same! Take care, John in WI ps: Go Armed Forces, Kick Ass! |
