Need door panels for my 65 GS coupe restoration
« on: January 04, 2010, 07:04:15 PM »
   Does anyone have a good set of door panels for my 65 thin pillar coupe ? It's NOT the skylark door panel.. the thin pillar coupe used the same interior as the Special. So if you know of anyone parting out a special coupe that would work too.. Any color will do, I will dye them Red.   Thanks. Tony G

Anthony,

I should have a set to send you in the Spring as I have four sets of post doors to work with.

Can you wait that long on these, if so I'll make you a really good deal on them and send them to you at no cost.

Do you need the rears also or just the fronts?

Thanks,

Chris

Sure Tom.. I should be able to completely fill your order some time between hell freezing over and 2095.     :evil5:

You know I'm kidding buddy and anything I have that you really need is always up for discussion.

       Ok Chris, It's a deal. I'm in no rush for them. Anytime this year will be OK, I still have to do the bodywork and replace the rotted doors with the clean set I got from Mark in Texas.
     I already have the rears, Mark had a good set on one of his parts cars...  If you need parts please let me know,
once I finish the thin pillar coupe I must inventory all the parts and sell off what is not needed. I have NO nos parts
just good used parts.
                                      Thanks

Tony,

I'm just a couple months from opening the shop and getting the vert ready for summer (just too darn cold right now).    :sad1:

I'll pull the best spare set I have and send them your way.

I can totally relate to the whole "spare parts" thing.  Every time I think I'm ready to sell some stuff I get really nervous because I'm so afraid to get rid of something that I'll need later and pay hell trying to locate a replacement.

I've set my mind to basically go down to my convertible and maybe a four speed post and keep any really good spares.  I also plan on a "garage sale" of everything else to fund my post restoration project and move out of my shop I'm paying a lease on every month.  The shop is only needed because of all the parts and cars I have (it's gotten way out of control) and I need to get back down to a garage full (home).  :tard:

Thank God for such an understanding wife who puts up with my crap!   :love4:
