Hope to have this home next week. I will check the tailgate area for parts requested. I have interested locals in some parts. I will be headed to Houston Mar 22 and can deliver parts close to our route from OKC to Houston.

Ok. I wanted to finally bump this to the top. I found a complete 71 Vista parts car. It will be coming home later this week. I will have pics then. The vista I had found previously is not nearly as complete. The parts that I am keeping are:
Seats
Dash
Tailgate
Floor
Disc Brakes
Cowl to core support vista braces

That's all I can think of for now. It has mirrored glass that is in good shape. Big front glass is broken(crap). The trim is nice and emblems are there too. Good fenders, need small patch.

PM with needs. It'll be later this week until it is home.

Just pulled it home today. I still need to get the supreme parted and my buddies 67 out of the shop. Holler at me if you see something you can't live without. It may take some time to get parts pulled.

I'm new to this forum thing so hang with me. I have a '70 Cruiser and I need window trim and roof rack and possibly some missing hardware that holds the 3rd row seat down. I am in desperate need of some pics of how the 3rd row bolts in. Mine is there but it moves around and is not secure. Also, did the back row have seat belts? Mine were all missing.

I'll get pics of the wheel soon. Weather has been nuts.


I can get pics of the third row seat when I start pulling the interior.
Email me at crumleym_50@yahoo.com and I'll respond with pics.

This car is finally in my shop and ready to be parted. Roof rack is sold. Highlights:
Blue interior with good belts
3 seat wagon. I'm keeping the front seat but have a blue power seat to replace it.
Good tail lights
Front clip is being used by me or may be going to Eastern OK this fall. I'll update if that changes
Keeping dash
Some good vista plastic and interior pieces
Smoked vista glass has some delamination. Big glass is cracked
Vista trim is complete and in good shape
Doors are rusted but if you need glass or hardware let me know.
Rubber pieces above the bumper are cracked
Tailgate is power and has surface rust but no rust thru. Window goes up and down with switch on dash.

Let me know if you are interested in anything or have a question about something not listed.

Side trim sold. Many good parts available. Some of the inner plastic is ok but not perfect. 3 seat wagon. Seats and seat belt are the next big items to come out of the car.

Is the filler tube special for the vistas? or would it be the same for any of the a-body 400s?

Great. I'm interested in the front lap belts. Did you have a chance to take pictures of that sheet metal under the third bench seat foot well yet? I think we emailed about it a few weeks ago and you said it looked pretty good? Also, those blue plastic covers inside the c-pillars.
