What would you call the hard to find B-body parts?

[monaco66coupe]

Try looking for a working Gauge cluster for the 67' Charger. I can't believe they run 240 volts or so in that dash for that speedo.

 

[jimt1971rr]

71 Plymouth header panel emblem or even worse, a 72 for a satellite.

 

[SuperStockDodge]

Dash speaker covers for 63 330's and similar Plymouths/year models...in good shape or at all!

classic does re-pop them, but they dont look anything close to the originals...DAMHIK...$30 down the crapper

I bought these repop ones from either classic or someone - you're right. Not even close to original and they simply don't look right on the car in any case. I found them one at a time - different parts of the country for the left and the right. Paid dearly for them. But it was a painful long search.

 

[mopar 3 B]

Gas gauge sending unit for a 16 gallon tank 72 RR/GTX. We surched every Chrysler Plymouth dealer ship in the lower 48 and found nothing in 1980.

 

[Ghostrider 67]

67' Coronet seat medallions, trunk finish panel, Grille surrounds, door emblems( inside), rear bumpers, 440 tail light lens, and bucket seats.

 

[73JF1Bird]

I know this isn't B Body, but the large P L Y M O U T H letters in the grill on 74-76 Plymouth Traildusters are like hen's teeth to find.

71-72 charger headlight washer switch or parts

1966,1967 Charger interior

 

[1967gtx]

I looked for 3 yrs for a set of 66 Belvedere I side body molding spears with fender emblems for my post car which at this point are very heavily guarded!!! -

Try finding a 1980, NOS, Aspen grille. It took me 1 1/2 years and a bunch of money....in 2006.

I bought as much NOS trim stuff as I could, in the late 90's-early 2000's for my WO car. I found nearly everything at that time, and thought I paid a lot. WRONG

 

[METAL BEE 68]

1968 coronet trunk lid. You'll find waldo before you find one of those

off topic but curious. I just checked classic dont seem to have 68 bucket seat upholstery

 

[Coyoteduster]

... anything for a '65 Coronet 440, especially the hood lip trim and the deck lid panel. My '69 Road Runner is a piece of cake compared to the '65!

I reckon legendary would have it...

 

[Speedbird]

What would you call the hard to find B-body parts?

I'd call them normal.
Oh that's not what you meant.

A list?
Everything on a 67 Charger.
Like they said.
That's too bad.
First Gen Chargers started the badge.

My 69 RR interior is from a 68 and the front buckets are long gone, when I went to both classic and legendary thy both had the rears and the front bench but not the deluxe front buckets, they said have it custom made! lol I ended up with some 67 buckets no headrest from ebay in great shape and will just redo all of it at the same time some day.

 

[Kern Dog]

71-74 Charger parts. There is always a multitude of parts for 68-70 Chargers even though the combined numbers for 71-74's was greater. 74 was the largest sales for Charger.

Really? The 1974 model outsold the 1969?

 

[Lowhound]

I must say the grills for a 70 Superbee, the trunklid with the wing cutouts in them for the same car. Plus the sidescoops for a 70 Coronet RT

 

[MarPar]

So getting back to the original question...{all paraphrased a bit}

What would you call B-bodies?

"They are at the same time rewarding and maddening - and it is without a doubt the greatest Machine Mankind has ever invented"
