WASyL Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 Hi, as i'm international i don't know where to look for parts, but to make it harder i don't want new parts (except of gaskets) and rather buy used in good condition so that have looks matching rust look of the car which is '50 Business Coupe Mostly i need stuff like door and trunk lock with mounting hardware, door lock mechanism, light lenses etc. are there any pages where i can look fot them or just spend hours scrolling thru eBay ? best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 you can open a classified wanted ad, no cost...expect shipping will be costly. Even around these parts there are so few yards to pick from. You would do well to have an interchange book but usually these are for main mechanical parts, as lots of parts carry over year to year. However, I hate to say it, but likely E-bay will be you better choice but will not rule out the success of finding a person parting out a body by placing an ad here. Good luck, having a few European cars, I know what it's like coming up empty handed on a parts quest. While it may be your intent to want to keep it stock, never rule out an upgrade from a common at hand donor car in your area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WASyL Posted August 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 thanks for info, i don't try to keep it stock, just keep it look old well then i'll just fabricate and do kustom stuff best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyd Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) Strongly suggest getting a parts manual, ideally one which covers not only your specific car year but hopefully a few years either side of it which will help you to check overall parts usage, an interchange book would be very helpful.........I have a 1950-65 Chrysler Products Interchange Manual by Auto Interchange Systems of Minnetonka, Minnesota...its a photocopy that I've had for 30yrs or more but I'm sure there are other versions of this around...........BTW, Welcome aboard from Australia........just checked and Amazon USA has an original copy of this book listed for $23.00 US which seems like a bargain..........lol.........andyd Edited August 24, 2023 by andyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin (UK) Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 I host this facebook group, which has a lot of European members: Flathead Mopar Parts - For Sale & Wanted I hope it's useful. Good luck with your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westaus29 Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Another good facebook group to ask for parts is https://www.facebook.com/groups/POCNational, the Plymouth Owners Club. You don't have to be a club member, just join the group. For members there is access to a bulletin which has lots of parts ads. I also belong to an active Aussie site which has some international members, https://www.facebook.com/groups/1435811830045161 1930-1950 Dodge/Plymouth in Australia (Early Mopar Only) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
