looking for tailgate related parts.. lower right latch, key switch cylinder for window (tailgate) and also the sash channel that connects power regulator to window... let me know if you will have these parts...thanks much

 

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.

 

What kind of shape are the rubber step pieces for the rear bumper area in?

 

I am in Arkansas and Have a guy out of Dallas looking for a 71/72 hood with louvers. So you have one? I can send you his contact.

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.

 

What condition is the steering wheel in? I need a good blue wheel

 

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.

Ok i actually need the latch for the tailgate the one on e the bottum that goes into the bumper...thanks again

 

bump. Getting this car apart. Inquire with needs.

 

Fuel tank?

 

I saw your want ad and hesitated to respond. I want to wait and make sure I don't need a new tank when I fire up my 72 Flat top. Sorry.

Matt

 

What condition are the lower B panel interior trim panels?

 

Sale pending in b and c pillar plastics.

 

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.

 

DO you still have the inside rear view mirror from this 71 vista?

Thanks Greg

 

Pretty sure. I think it may be lighted. I'll double check tomorrow. PM me your email and I'll send pics.

Matt

 

Hi Matt

The Blue vista roof plastic interior cover pieces are sold. right? How is the sheet metal under the third seat. Mine needs one section where the floor has the longitudinal ribs...

Tom

 

Tom,
Those pieces are still available. I hope to get in the shop this week and get the seats out. I will let you know condition. Send me a pm with your email and I will send pics. Let me know what pieces of the interior you are needing.

Matt

 

Matt. Email is w31man@new.rr.com when you have time to get picks of the rear view mirror fro the vista

Thanks Greg

 

Greg,
Will do. I looked at it Saturday but didn't have my phone to take a quick pic.


Matt

 

Does this car have a TH400? if so I need the filler tube.

 

Hi Matt,
Does it have cruise control?

 

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

 

It has a turbo 375 that I'm using in my flat top wagon. No cruise control.

Matt

 

tailgate coming off this week and available. Interior plastics and windlace coming out too. Blue steering column,seats and seat belts too.

 

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.

 

More parts coming off and ready to sell.

Disc brake set up $300

Working rust free power dual action tailgate $400

Blue windlace $100 for set

Second row sun visors in decent shape. Good cores. $50
