I need chrome

Hello,
I'm looking for chrome tail lights, remote control mirror, and script plymouth and belvedere name badges for my 4 door sedan. Mine are very pitted and I don't think they will plate well. I'm in the Buffalo, NY area willing to travel a little bit (upstate, PA or Ohio) for them or if somebody knows of a website I can order parts from, that would be cool. I also am looking for a front bumper valance, and fender skirts. I'm having a hard time finding parts in general for my car. Any help or advice would be great

Well, when i had my 59 Plymouth I found the best place to get parts like you're looking for is on ebay.

I totally agree with Nighthawk Bob, eBay is the place to look for restored or scarce "survivor" parts.

I may have one front window wing assembly for a convert. Need to look for it. If I still have it, it would be for the drivers side. I will compare it to my convert to make sure it is the convertible version not a sport coupe version....

Roger, When Matthew was out here last year and a couple months ago,he saw it and he said it was similar to his in Condition, with a small hairline crack in the frame work at the very top. So no improvement for him to use it. I would have a buddy put a small TIG weld tach on it and call good if I thought it would hinder the aesthetics.
I need to dig it out and take some pics for Mark so he can see it. Don't know if he has a HT version in his car now or a convert version and just wants to upgrade.

John,
Any luck finding the Drivers side wing window?
What is the Difference B/T a Conv and a HT wing window?
Do yo still need the Tail Light Bezels/

Tom Fox pointed it out to me...
The main difference is across the top of the frame. The cvt frame has a sculpted edge which acts as a sort of socket or "bed" for the cvt header to fit to. A photo comparison would be appropraite just now, but I am unable to provide.

Mark, I have not had the time as I am rushing to get my car done for a car show this weekend, but I will go to the basement and dig it out on Weds, 8-8,
It is a unique convertible one, That I know for sure when Matthew and I were comparing it to the one in my car already.
