64 Valiant parts

Had a bit of a problem with my 64 Valiant – rearended by a Saturn. Need a new bumper for the car, and since I will probably go with a full cosmetic restore, I will also need window fuzzies, and possibly a manual transmission collar for the steering column. Anyone know where I can find these? thanks Dave

66 Cuda question

I called to see about buying a new rad. for my 66 with a 273 and NAPA says that their book for new rads only goes back to 67. I asked about Valiant because thats how I order other parts for the Cuda and same thing. My question is can I order one for a 67 and will it work. BTW both my hoses are on the drivers side.
