  1. i think the issue here is the cost shipping... i have one that is dent free and not cancer pitted (a 68 without the trim holes). But all doors will have some surface rust and mine definitely shows that. I would look for something in texas that you can pick up but if your welcome to pm me if interested in mine.
  2. Hi I've got a pair of decent drip rails for sale here in Seattle ($45 for the pair). These items are hard to ship so local pick up is preferred but I can ship domestically if needed. Please note in the pics that there is a slight bend in one as well as a notch at the end of one of them.
  3. I've got a pair that in decent condition. I'll email you pics. -robert
  4. Hi Esty - sorry what is RHD? I have some beat up front mats from a 68 you can have. I am not sure if what I have are what came with the car originally but they certainly look old enough...
  5. i have driver/passenger doors from a 68 (which means you would have to drill holes for the bottom trim). Im in Seattle so shipping will be a nightmare but email me if interested rdeeble at mac dot com.

  14. Just snapped the bolt on one of my rusted metal rocker fasteners - argh i think they are nla - anyone got one or suggestions? I have a partial set of Rimspoke fasteners and one looks the right size except for the sides - were those intended for the Rockers?
  15. Seattle folks - I am really pleased to say that I visited American Auto Paint yesterday and they went above and beyond to correct the situation with my car including an immediate partial refund to get my headliner, sunroof and glass installation done with an outside shop of my choice. In addition to the refund they made an appointment to correct any body issues or paint flaws that I was experiencing. Furthermore it appears that American had responded to my initial concern several weeks ago long (before I filed a BBB complaint) but that their letter and enclosed check was lost by USPS. I stood in the office as the owner called the bank to cancel the original check and reissue a second. The entire experience was non defensive and apologetic. Bottom line I am really impressed with their honesty and willingness to make a situation right. I went to them as a good driver quality shop that is willing to do restoration work. And while I can say they could of been a little more careful in examining the work prior to having me pick it up - they are honest and willing to work with customers to get it right in the end. That means a lot.
  16. somebody please hit my car so I can get mine redone... : )
  17. * please see my last post - American Auto has agreed to repair all work & provide a refund on the subcontracted work that failed *
  18. similar thing happened to me but it wasn't the top latch that seemed to be the problem. Lever A and bracket B seemed to be working. Fortunately i already had door panels off and observed how the working door worked then where the non working door didn't. Looking at the mechanism from the inside of the door there was a little knob (? for lack of better word? ) that gets triggered when you engage the inside handle. I took the screw driver blade and gave that knob a hard tap and it free'd. From there i sprayed the f' out of it with penetration oil and all seems to be working again. We shall see if its an ongoing thing or not...
  19. i have just "one" for sale if you need an extra...
  20. I've got a stock air cleaner from a 76 in the sale pile.  you know the big round ones. email rdeeble at mac dot come if interested.

  21. i have two good doors from a 68 in Seattle for sale if anyone is still interested.
  22. * please see my last post - American Auto agreed to repair all work & refunded the subcontracted work that failed * Just fyi i am having some troubles with American Auto correcting assembly mistakes made in the shop. Was very happy about their paint and body work but have about 2k worth of errors on headliner, sunroof and windshield. Been talking with Junior about it but not getting much response back. Preparing to write a formal letter to the owner to see if they will honor redoing the work elsewhere. Bottom line they are a good paint shop but would hesitate recommending them beyond that. My hope is they will come through on honoring these repairs and if so I will sing their praise on the faq. (YES I CAN RECOMMEND) You may also want to check out Fenders and Fins - Ive heard good things but have not had work done.
