Andydodge Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Have a question........I am looking at bidding on a 1941 Plymouth Lower Radiator Dust Shield thats been listed on ebay......the guy says he won't do international shipping..........I've sent him a nice "please reconsider" message, however he may not come to the party, which is his perogerative..........if he won't do international shipping is there anyone on the Forum who would consider having this sent to them and then forwarding it on to me........am not looking for a freebie or lovejob, I am more than happy to pay, just want the part.........lol........I'd happily consider a rusty old part if you have it also.........and I also still need the panel that fits in front of the radiator at the top that has the 2 holes for the horns........don't want the horns, just the panel that goes betweeen the radiator and the hood holddown thing(lol)...........anyway, thanks Andy Douglas Quote
BeBop138 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 Andy, I will help if needed---Ship from Minnesota---don`t know if somewhere else in the States is cheaper. Will check for the other part also.....Lee Quote

PatS.... Posted June 25, 2011 Report Posted June 25, 2011 There is a local auto wreckers who supplies muscle car parts to a business in Australia...sorry I don't know who or where...the point is he handles a few old 40's and 50's cars and alot of mid 60's-mid 70's Mopars (and others) and has a regular container to OZ. This won't help you Andy but anyone else in OZ looking for parts may want to check here. If they have it, the shipping will not be a problem although there may be a wait. It's called Heavy Metal, in Trochu, Alberta, Canada (pronounced Tro_shoe) Po Box 657, Trochu AB, T0M 2C0 Phone: 403-442-2600 Fax: 403-442-3789 The owner is Tim Quote
Andydodge Posted June 25, 2011 Author Report Posted June 25, 2011 Shel, yep you are right but it appears that someone else wants it just as much if not more than me, problem was I am here in Oz and had to see if it was possible to get it sent to me 10000 miles away as the seller doesn't do international shipping.........so as they say in the classics........shittus happenus..............just gunna go check the depth.........lol.....andyd Quote
Andydodge Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Posted June 26, 2011 Just checked the depth and it appears that I have won the dust shield........YES!!!!!!.......and it now appears that the guy WILL ship international........have just sent him an email to confirm this change of heart........lol........so I await his reply and it would seem I won't be needing help to have it shipped to Oz......we await his reply....andyd Quote
Andydodge Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Posted June 26, 2011 Shel, I thought of that b4 putting up the 1st post but looks like its turned out o/k anyway........just waiting to hear bcak from the selling................andyd Quote
rockable Posted June 26, 2011 Report Posted June 26, 2011 Glad you got that, Andy. That was the part I tried to describe to you months back. I imagine they are hard to come by. Quote
Andydodge Posted June 26, 2011 Author Report Posted June 26, 2011 Rock, the problem is that 1941 Plymouths or indeed any 1941 cars are quite rare in Oz, apart from my coupe I know of only one other 1941 Plymouth in Oz and thats 1200 miles away in Melbourne Victoria, so its very difficult to compare cars or even see another to check what fits, etc all I knew was that there should be something there.........lol..........now all I gotta get is the upper piece that the horns fit into......I will probably just make a piece outa stainless/alloy sheet for this piece.........thanks again guys for all the offers of help, this is what makes this forum so great, regards, Andy Douglas Quote
