    Car is on way to being gutted. Power front bench and rear seat are gone. Seat belts have been sold. Front fenders are sold. There is still a near perfect hood atop car. Trunk lid is near perfect. Front bumper brackets look good. Front bumper shell is bent, should still be a good core. I have L front inner skirt, it is perfect. Have the hood hinges. Most of front suspension still there. Hector if you want steering box - $40 plus your flat rate box. Condensor still in radiator support. Liquid line to firewall suitcase still there. Dashboard shell/enclosure inside car.

    It looks like there are 2 different part numbers:
    GS - 3015045 & AC 1350
    225 - 3017884 & AC 1230

    i would be interested in the POA Valve!!!

    Thanks,
    John

    Car is still in yard. 69 Electra 225 coupe. Probably a month tops until crush.

    So - if anyone has slight interest in larger body parts - let me know. Am not going to buy these large body parts for inventory due to niche reality of car, and difficulty in selling.

    Hood, near perfect, a few dings.
    Drivers door - a few rust spots.
    Passenger door - VG.
    Trunk lid.
    RR quarter panel, complete, can cut outside factory seams, and to include inner and outer wheelhouse.
    All side glass and rear window.
    RR tail light was still in car earlier this week.
    Pot metal grilles were still in car earlier this week.
    RF aluminum drum and hub was still with car.
    Front bumper shell and (4) brackets still on ground under car.

    Hey just wondering if the rear end is a posi or not and what the rear end ratio is thanks

    I have not it investigated fully, as the LR hit bent the L axle tube. Was considering the purchase of the drums, backing plates and rear cover before it is crushed. Probably not, though, given the niche nature of the beast. Given that it was a 430 auto car w/ luxuries am assuming it is either a 2.56 or 2.73 open ratio. Surprisingly enough the yard has not crushed the row the car is in yet. Almost been ten months.

    Near the end of April, and yes, the car is still there. Nuts, it should have been gone by now. Anyhow, took a closer look at front suspension on Tuesday, and it has some new or near new parts. Including: Front shocks, end link bushings and hardware for sway bar, strut rod bushings, and a newer center link. Not going to buy these, due to niche nature, but throwing it out there, if anyone is interested. Good spindles w/ backing plates, steering box still there, and clean unpitted front control arms too.

    Snapped off the remainder of the exterior brightwork from this car, a few weeks ago, and just about all of it is super clean. Have the: rocker mouldings both sides, hood spear, rear of hood, bottom of windshield and around the windshield, top of doors, bottom of doors, around the quarter windows, the roof rail channels, the vinyl roof surround, and the RR wheel skirt pot metal section. And a few bits I may have missed. Guessing 69-70 full size two doors only, and probably only Electra coupe for some of this trim.

    Hi - I know I am probably too late and will go back and review all posts for what is left BUT - I just won an on-line auction for a 69 Triple Black Electra convertible. It's straight but rusty. I know I need floor pans and probably trunk pans. I can see a line of rust out around the edge of my trunk lid, so if the trunk is still available and not beat up from being in the yard all this time, I would take that trunk lid provided it's not dented from the accident (it looks OK to me).

    Beyond that, I need to see my car in person to tell what I need but you know probably everything. I love that interior and could use most of it but will review prior posts so I don't duplicate my requests. Let me know, let's save a convertible!

    Amazingly, the yard, as of last week, has not crushed that row. They took a row that was only three months old out, and smashed that one instead. If you PM me, I can give you a complete inventory of all the parts I have bought off that coupe. I have not bought any large sheetmetal parts. Due to the niche nature of the car. I did unbolt the doors, and hood, and trunk, and set them in an adjacent row, in a pickup bed, due to belief that row would survive longer.
