57 in El Paso yard just placed
Noticed this yesterday at the west side pick a part in El Paso. Marked as a 57 88 model. Four door sedan. Chev engine conversion. Perhaps someone within a days drive can benefit from this.
Nice bumper and trunk lid. Emblem has crack but no pits.
Good chrome
Some interior parts left.

Thanks for the tip! Does anyone know how to contact this yard? What I really need is some pics of the vent windows, as I can't seem to figure out how the main rubber frame connects to the heavy cast chrome piece. I am restoring a pair of these but the customer sent them to a different restorer before I got them and they seem to be missing some parts. If I have to, I will buy a vent window to see how it's assembled.

Thanks for the reply! I'm not sure why Olds would have made different vents for 2 & 4 door but I suppose it's possible. At any rate I would think that they would be assembled the same way, as this is the info I'm after. If anyone can help with info or pics, it would be much appreciated! Thanks, Jerry @ Dr J's Restoration Rx
