St Regis is the top of the line actually but not too many extras available
actually. AC, power seats and windows are all that come to mind right now
along with windshield washers and whitewall tires.
Have restored two St Regis myself and doing Windsor convert (slowly) now.
Let me know what you need and will see what I can do when I get back to
Nebraska soon hopefully.
Just picked up a 50 Chrysler Hardtop today. Was just starting to be
dismantled for scrap but is an awfully nice car so had to save. No real
damage done to it yet happily. Its a Highlander even!!!! Not that many
original Highlanders out there but the restored cars always seem to become
highlander nowadays.
