Thanks Prop! I'll keep an eye out for it. The trunk is full of parts I am still going through and trying to figure out what is what and where it belongs.
Will that switch be different with a 4 speed?

Well gentleman, the fundage is low again so i figured I would at least get a better idea of where I am at. The more I dig through this car the better I think the price was. At least thats what I keep telling myself. lol
Any way to fix this mirror?

You could try 000 steel wool on the mirror to see if it'll help Coronet340 - you can't really make it any worse ? ? ?

I'll give it a shot. If it doesn't work I'm guessing I can just replace the mirror part correct? I mean the housing and everything is nice, the day/night switch is even still smooth.

The good news is that both the mirror and the steering wheel are relatively easy to find in good condition, and also relatively cheap.

Well Gents, after reading 100+ pages of resto threads I finally got enough confidence to inventory my trunk. I have never actually cleaned this thing out, I knew there was a spare 500 grill and headlight surrounds plus the windshield trim I put in there.
After pulling this stuff out and realizing what it was I considered it a nice little score. Not sure how hard all the interior chrome trim is to find but everything on the floor is extra. All my trim inside the car is still installed, including the poles for the headliners. (Pardon my parts vocabulary, still learning)

Also, after reading so much I started to get nervous about how bad my trunk pan might be. It looks decent, it definitely needs some love but I don't see having to cut it out. I did hit the worst spot with a wire wheel and it took about a minute to make the spot you'll see below.

Hooray for parts. Hooray for beer. Sun visor on the right looks to be a lost cause and so is one in the car. Between the sets I should have a nice pair.




Would love to save this radiator but we'll see

Nice spare parts 340, a guy can never have enough spare parts!

Cute doggie - Keep up the good work on your project!

Looks like you got some good parts to go into your mopar bank account. If that's the worst your trunk is, you should be good with that. Your dog looks like he can't wait for you to get the carpet in, so you'd better get right on that.
