    2 door? 4 door?

    If it came from the factory with the 455, then the rear end is not an 8.5 (unless it's been changed sometime in the past).

    Hard top or convertible? Power or manual windows? How are the rear quarter panels?

    Hello,

    I need the rubber filler peices between the trunk and the rear bumper. It would be wonderful to get the clips as well.

    Does your car have them?

    Thanks,
    John

    What color is the interior? I would be interested in seat belts and steering wheel if the parts are black or blue.

    Hey John the filler pieces are pretty much impossible to come by. Check out this place. http://www.replica-plastics.com/ I have a 75 LeSabre that I am trying to find parts for. That rubber piece no one has, because they all crack just like the dash. I'm going to order the same pieces your looking for from this place for my 75.

    now that i look at the car it is a pretty good candidate for a resto. the story on the car is a farmer had it and in 1980 it wouldnt start one day so he parked it. i got the car for the 455 i put some points in it and it ran sweet so i pulled the eng and trans for my chevelle . everything is intact and other than deck lid trunk pan and floor pans its pretty straight

    you talking about the skinny rubber flaps? if so i have them and they are still intact.

    and it is power windows.
    power seats
    power locks
    power brakes
    and all interior is blue.

    here is a link to all my pictures i think 21 of them. if someone needs ill move it away from the fence and take a better picture of the back.
    and the rear end may be a bigger one. i just seen that it had the two ears on 5 and 7 oclock and assumed it was an 8.5 its a non posi also..

    I'd be interested in the steering column if it's tilt and nothing is broken in the tilt mechanism.

    its tilt and it works but the key switch piece is knocked out so the steering column is unlocked and it would be minus the steering wheel cause someone else wants it. let me know.

    Does it just need the lock cylinder or is the column itself punched out where the cylinder would go? I have a cylinder but if the column needs to be repaired then it won't work for me.

    Snap some pics of the damage in question and shoot it to me along with a price in a pm. That way we don't clutter up the thread.
