Did OK locating some good parts for the car over the past few days. Found an original yellow bumper for the front end and this is great as the frame already had the inner Endura brackets mounted to it when I pulled the front bumper off. The bumper will need a few repairs but should work out great for this car once it's prepped.

Big thanks for Jeff M. for hooking me up with a front bumper.

Rob R. was also kind enough to reach out with a few other parts that were needed for this car. A nice pair of original 418 covers, a nice 309 master cylinder, and another neat little item for the cause. It's starting to come together.

Thanks Rob!!!

And here is the last of the recent parts finds with some NOS GM trim pieces, original GM brackets, and some old day 2 style 8mm Super Stock plug wires. I think I have all the exterior trim covered with a lot of NOS parts to dress the body after it's painted. I also found a nice Rosewood Wheel today and will now continue working to find a 69 tilt column and some deluxe seat belts to round out the inside. Feels like I'm going a hundred miles an hour here but I still have a long ways to go. Thanks to all those who have been sending info on parts. Much appreciated.

Big thanks to Bill R. for a lot of these NOS parts.

The 12 bolt axle tubes appear to have been tack welded to the housing at some point.
Very cool build thanks for sharing.

Thanks Rob. Looked at that one yesterday and did call D&R to inquire. Turns out to be a generic rebuild type. The guy on the phone kept describing it like this "well, we like to call it an OE type column for 69-74 cars". That call ended fairly quickly. lol Also checked with Jimmy at HBC and they use a similar column from a typical rebuilder service, and theirs had a locking ring with no cover at all. Good news is that I may have found a correct one and will have some more details on that after the weekend. I did locate a nice Rosewood wheel and have a couple coals in the fire with the hunt for some deluxe belts going on too.

Looks like a plan is coming together now!

As an update, I think I'm close to deciding on some new interior fabrics being ordered from SMS and rebuilding the front buckets using their vinyl and HT fabric. Very close color match and good quality materials. Once I've cleaned the rear seat covers I'll have a better idea of everything and will decide exactly how much material will be ordered and what will need to be recovered.
