wow, you are fast..weve had the rainiest mnth on record..not conducive to digging thru my crammed and leaky shed..also the holiday season takes up much of my spare time.. Have you tried asking John Fowlie (BigM on this list) he has been collecting SF parts for some time now.

Ragtop, I'm near you (in S. WY) and the windshield you just purchased would also fit a car I'm trying to fix. You said 'brand new' - any chance there are others where that came from for the same 300 denaros?
Thanks in advance for any information you can give.

Be aware; there are windshields out there that will fit nicely, but they are not the "bubble" windshields that make our cars so special."Bubble" windshields are harder to find, and more expensive than the others

Thanks for the information Roger. From what I know about these cars (57-59 Mopars) and mine specifically, I'll need two 'flat' windshields and one 'bubble' windshield. The 'bubble' one I need for my '58 De Soto was fine until someone with a pellet gun found it - now it is kind of 'pocked' even after being repaired.
Thanks for all your information - keep it coming.

hello Ragtop,
I had some free time, so I climbed thru the shed out back, and I did find the trim you need for your passenger door. The "insert" is in very good condition, needing only cleaning. The lower trim stainless is straight, but does have some minor flaws. If you know someone who polishes stainless trim, this should be no problem. It doesn't have the fasteners to attach to car...that would take some more effort to find in my stuff.I can post a picture if desired.
Any progress on compiling your auction list?
There is a guy in Minnesota who may have the rest of the parts you need, but he is outrageously expensive, and, based on my dealings with him, there is no guarantee he will send you decent parts. If you want his name, let me know. At his prices, you are better off buying NOS..
Roger

sorry. been w/o electricity etc for two days
Google Mel Bohnencamp in Fertile, MN. for your Sport Fury needs. As I said, be prepared for a wide range of quality, and skyhigh prices.
For my two pieces of door trim, will you go $75, shipping not included?
