Rarest NOS Part you found for your 71-4 B-body this year

Yeah I seen the resonators and didn't hesitate. I was skeptical cause the price was almost too good to be true. I figure when they'd arrived I would have a set of repops someone put in old Chrysler boxes but they're legit :)
If he had listed them in the right area I would have found them faster! LOL
 
They were in the right area, the area I was looking at lol...

I very rarely get "the deal", I felt fortunate with them.

I have a nice set of repops on my car, they were made by Dale's Cuda shop and I will say other than the center being made differently that the original, the repops are much nicer quality. Also when Dale made them, I asked him not to spot weld the outer to the inner. I can slide the chrome off and clean the orange.

There's been a standard set of NOS tips on ebag for months now. Crazy money tho.
 
Aren’t the NOS brittle by now?
 
I always thought they became brittle and yellow due to a reaction with oxygen in the atmosphere.

sunlight is the worst enemy and heat is the next to any plastic
stored properly it will last a very long time
 
The 73-74 washer bottle with cruise control are very tough to find. In all of my years of looking through NOS parts, I have never seen one.
 
I am in possession of a NOS front center bumper filler for a 73/74 charger. It is the only one I’ve ever seen. Put me in line for the overflow bottle should you ever decide to sell. Thanks!
 
some of the crap I have laying around
a complete set of NOS lenses taillight ,sidemarkers, park lamps/license plate lens for a 71 RR
and half way into another set
71-4 pass side outer rocker have a nice donor also, so I don't know if I will ever use it.
and a bunch of other nos trinket type stuff grille,dash emblems, valves ,switches, relays, horns, carb solenoids
plenty of NOS 69 bee stuff also emblems,lugnuts,grille filler some gauges and switches,chokes,another 68-70 nos rocker and more I forgot
nos hp exhaust manifold hardware
but I have been collecting stuff for a very long time
so I guess what I trip over in my closet
would be the rarest part I found this year :D
I'm sure someone like Brett would put me to shame.. :eek:

I have been able to find several NOS parts ( driver side door, tail lights, front and rear valences etc... ) for my car along the years, but nothing on these last 2 or 3 years mainly because I haven't been searching for anything, being my Charger or jackstands on a body job on last 6 years. Aaaaaaand the lack of money to buy anything!

Pretty difficult part to find that I just picked up is the hood release cable with the loop end and verticals handle.
 
I'll add another one, the strato vent water valve are a pita to find, but there is one on eBay right now for 375.00. I have one of these on hand . They have a tendency to leak out of the little screws on the top.
 
One more, clutch Saftey switch, I have a restored one in reserve.

Those valves do pop up. I had 6 of these Nos. Recently sold another one, Had 1 for my car and a spare. then there was an Nos one on here really cheap so I grabbed that one to complete a whole Strato vent set-up that has an old looking but working valve... I found the Strato vent controller Nos last year I never saw one of them available so I grabbed it...

Sometime when you see rare stuff for your car you have to pick it up. You'll always be able to sell it. The minute us don't buy it the part on the car will break.
 
I picked up a nos tach off facebook and a set of fenders off craigslist

I will say the pickings for nicer original parts gets leaner every year
its not like it was even ten years ago.
 
Just arrived today. Been looking for a LH Nos 71 Gtx/Sebring Plus Taillight bezel to make a pair. I Had the RH Nos but could not find the other side for the past 3-4 years. Made this NOS set cheaper than the Chinese versions...
