Re: deciphering a build card...

Stay tuned, Henry! My recollection is that the photocopy of the microfilm was accompanied by a letter, and that the letter provided the name of the dealer that corresponded to the dealer code.

Did you receive a letter with the photocopy?

Re: deciphering a build card...

BTW, Henry, was there an accompanying letter, one that decoded the dealership, perhaps?

Re: deciphering a build card...

Here's a topic to get you started, Henry! In the meantime, I will alert Matthew Keij, our build card expert, to your inquiry - perhaps he will have some more detail.

Re: One good turn deserves another...

I find it curious, too, Roland! Here's what the Chrysler parts manual says (the first column being Plymouth):

Ron Waters, however, says the switch was the same 1955-1959 regardless (although the early years could have had cloth insulation). Go figure!

One good turn deserves another...

After my grandson sitting behind the wheel "driving" the Fury - and, me forgetting to remove the turn signal lever before his visit - the pot metal screw hole in the switch plate took a beating, and the lever started to flop around. Fortunately, I had NOS plate in my stash, so I undertook ...

Re: How does the roof rail seal install into the retainer?

Brian, Here's a pic of my retainer strip in the car, with the door window weatherstripping pulled out - you'll notice that the reproduction weatherstripping is in two pieces, the front has a different shape than the rear (the originals were molded in a single piece). Where the quarter window comes i...

Re: How does the roof rail seal install into the retainer?

On a previous occasion you post this pic: Parts 4-6.jpg Is #4 in this pic, the metal piece you are holding in your hand? It doesn't look like mine - I can try to take some pi...

Re: '59 rear bumper stops

I wonder if the front bumper also has a detent for the rubber, or if its simply glued on.. Will Walker has a project car that has these rubber bumpers - here are some pix, and a convo I had with Will: 494577097_1235436634820219_6478432371246586056_n.jpg 494578797_2166487833793072_225618946480415415...
