74 going to the crusher!

Caveman49 · Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 7:45 pm Post subject: 74 going to the crusher!

I'm about to take one of my 74s to the scrap yard. It may still have some parts worth saving, what do you need? Cost will minimal plus shipping.

I've picked it pretty clean, but it still has dash swithes, some front end stuff, great frame (hate to let it go), tailgate mechanism (tailgate is rusted,) tail lights, rear bumper (not great) sway bars. I've pulled the rear for another vehicle.

I'll try to work with you on shipping big stuff. I have other parts cars available too. Will sell whole cars.

Email me with your needs.

Lee

Anthony, send me an email when you get a chance. The wx here hasn't been cooperating, but I love it, we need the rain.

What a shame to hear of a 4th Gen going to the crusher. Oh well, good to hear it has been picked pretty clean and the remaining items may go to a good home.

If you still have the wiper/washer switch, that should create interest on eBay. I bought one a while back and there was a bit of competition.

Good luck with it Lee.

Lee,

I could use the driver's side inside door handle, it broke and I have to open the window and use the outside door handle, bummer.

Also the windshield washer bottle and bracket that holds it.

Also the chrome trim on the right front wheel well opening.

Let me know if you have any of this and how much.

Lee...If your "crusher" had the round gages I need the pc board plug and as much wiring as you can clip. Let me know.
