WANTED! I am located in Southern / Central California (Santa Maria) and I need a Driver and Passenger bucket seat from a 1966 Chrysler 300. Please let me know if you have some available and if you are nearby, or if shipping could be arranged? I’m eager to find a set! Color doesn’t matter. I will send them to be re-upholstered.

Good day to you all once again and welcome back to my endless questions . SO… for today’s episode, I’d like to address the power seats in my ’68 New Yorker.

As you may or may not know, I’m in the process of getting a ’68 New Yorker back on the road after being abandoned for 40 years!

What is it, and where could I possibly find one new? Don’t know if it matters, but my car is not an Auto Temp car (thankfully.) I appreciate any help I can get!

I’m restoring a 68 New Yorker and I just purchased a C Body engine wiring harness for my 68 but it doesn’t appear to have the portion for headlamps. Is it 2 separate harnesses? If so where could I purchase the headlamp wiring? Mine is shot and chewed t…

A genuine question! So I’m restoring a ’68 New Yorker and I’ve got my engine and trans newly rebuilt. Stock, the car has a TRW pump… has anyone ever swapped it out for a Federal or a Saginaw style pump? Would it be difficult? Car is an AC car. I really want to update everything and have a nice mechanically sound car; and I figure since the car is in pieces now I might as well take care of things like that at this time! I appreciate any help I get. I only mention a steering pump swap…

In search of this piece for the right hand side of the fender grill closure for a 68 Newport. I found a NOS left side panel but need the right side one now! I appreciate any help I can get.
