    After much brainstorming and deliberation about which way to go or where to start, I have decided to part out my '54 Crestline parts car! I bought this car as you see it and had intentions to customize it since its so far gone anyway. However, there is just too much missing to make it feasible to do so. Ive located a complete 55 that is more practicle to invest time and $ into. So, if you need any '54 parts, let me know what you are looking for and I'll see if I got it. Have lots of parts not in pics, but here's a couple of pics. Also, have a Corsica p/s set-up if someone wants to try that conversion.

    Hey! I'm kinda interested in the dash insert and radio if they look pretty good. Don't know what price you're looking for or anything, just interested.
     
  3. Interested in the whole Dash/Speedo/Glovebox depending on condition.
    Also interested in the front fenders depending on condition.

    If it was originally the V8 model, I am in dire need of the radiator core support. The one I got from ebay ended up not being wide enough for the space however, it fits the radiator I got from US Radiator. The whole car is weird like that so far.

    Fenders are junk but could have patches cut if someone needed eyebrow patches or something, got some rough parking light housings, u shaped radiator bracket is available and about 2' wide, put some items in the main board parts section so I could easily post pics. Tried to upload to photobucket but my dial up kept stopping the download. One of the hood hinges is good, some chrome. Will post more tomorrow. Going to check out the '55 and may make a deal so any of these loose parts I can get rid of will help with space and car money. Went to move the rest of the hull but was short a wheel and the ground was mushy and didn't want to get stuck. This car still has the transmission in it and the front crossmember is good. Sorry for the broken structure of this post.

    [​IMG][​IMG]Here's a pic of any loose mouldings I have, there are some on the doors but at this time want to keep them complete. Also the heater with core, don't know if it leaks.

    JeffB2, The cardboard is there and looks fragile. Would be afraid to remove it from the housing as it would fall apart. Was laying in the trunk in the weather.
