Welcome to CO! Nice to see a 4dr being restored - there aren't enough of them out there, IMHO...
FUsicks for most specialty parts, Rockauto for more std repair, chassis, & electrical parts, and Legendary for interior trim parts. These all have excellent service and quality. The 4drs may be a little more difficult to find some parts for, but a lot will interchange from the 2drs.
Please post some pics when you can!

Thanks.

The Interior is all original still the only thing that needs to be fixed in the interior is the carpet. The exterior has some rust spots. when i got it the front end was damaged but not bad. Looking for the the front bumper and grill pieces which need to be replaced and tailight outer covers

Very nice looking for mostly original! Front end looks quite good int he picture. That back seat almost looks like it would seat 4!
Carpet should be available through Legendary.

Welcome.

Too cool, 4 doors are twice as good as a 2 door.

I wish they would of done a hardtop Vista Cruiser like that.
I could get out the sawzall?

I have five doors.
One opens two ways.

I saw either a guy in a tux at my high school prom or Liberace wearing a dinner jacket that looked just like that once.
