Two 1968 Supremes
I picked up two 1968 Supremes this week. Both cars are rough but there seems to be a lot of good parts left on both of them.
Factory Eight Track
Factory Bucket Seats
Center Console
Steering Column
Both dashes look nice. No cracks. I'll clean them up in the next week or so.
Might have a really nice package tray. They look good from what I see now. Again, I'll get the cars cleaned up and inspected over the next week.

Tom,
Both are "S" model not a Cutlass supreme.
"S" model has the chrome alone the upper edge.
"CS"model has the chrome along the lower edge about four inch before the bottom.
And yes as you said they are ruff.

Condition of all the stainless upper body moldings and the cast pieces at the front of the front fenders including the vinyl top trim pieces at the B pillar and around the trunk upper lip. Drip rails (all 6 pieces). The lower trunk lip trim and its two wings in the quarters on the green car? Any of it mint? I really need good roof rail(drip rail) pieces and that trunk lower lip molding, but they need to be really nice.

Side Marker?
If any of the front fender side marker lights are good, I need one, including the mounting bracket, seal, and nuts. You may either reply to this post or PM me - whatever you are comfortable with.
Thanks,
Rich

The trunk trim isn't so great. Somebody put two screws in it to hold the ends down. The two wings may clean up. I'll check them out tonight.

OK Tom dont worry about the trunk trim. The outer wings are reproed. The trunk lip is the hard one to find nice. Definitely interested in stainless trim. A little polish/buff is cool dents are not.
Just so were on the same page, the pieces Im describing on the front fender are the leading edge of the stainless that is on the top of the fender. 68 its a 2 piece. 69 its all one piece from the door to the head lights. So if you sell the trim include that cast piece even if its crappy. Hopefully the studs are there. Not too worried as Fusick sells them as well.

Sorry,
I haven't gotten it out yet. I did get some of the interior out of the bucket seat car last night and hopefully I can get the eight track out tonight.
I am thinking $275.00. But I also think I need to insure the case not cracked up.
I kept track of who PM'd me first second and so on.
Again, sorry it's taking so long.

The eight track
Great looking case, I opened it up to inspect the inside, it's not all rusted out. The bumper pad is soft and looks great. The face plate isn't so perfect. Some of the wires have been spliced. Nothing that cannot be fixed easily.

Tom, the 8 track face plates are repopped now, and these 8 tracks are the same from 68-72, just different faceplate trims. Nice score bud.
Here's the link to H&H for anyone who's interested in the 8 track and wants to buy a new faceplate.

If it doesn't sell I was thinking about using it in my 69 Supreme.
Thanks again
