Large parts can be delivered to Homecoming or Nationals. As per forum rules…. Bolts or screws are .50, steering wheel $75, deck lid $200. I can list each and every part if needed.

Once upon a time that was a very nice car. I always hate to see them deteriorate to that condition. I see power window motors and switches, remote trunk release and outside mirrors that still have value.

I need some Maple Red buckets. With a good cleaning are they good enough for a driver? Is the drivers seat torn up? Are they Maple Red? They look like it.

Can’t swear if they are maple color. The seat back plastic has turned kinda neon pink but not cracked up. No direct tears on the bottoms but getting a little thin. I would think a good cleaning would make these driver quality but it’s subjective. The plastic chrome sides are missing. The back seat is decent too. Pair of fronts figure $125. Delivery to Lansing, Nashville or Hershey prepaid.

Rechecked the doors, I think they suck but the hood, trunk and fenders are decent. I can certainly pull off stainless trim. Photos of the gauges as requested.

figure $25 for oil gauge

What would you want for the 2 t-top panels?

Man it hurts seeing this one go, this was a top of the line Calais in its day. Long, long ago.

That interior is beautiful. Problem down here (W Texas / NM / Az) is that Interiors burn up and disintegrate, but the the metal pieces and parts on the cars are great. GLWS.

IP pad. Very nice with no cracks or dents. Still fragile after 40 years so I will ship but prefer delivery to minimize chance of damage. $75. Sale pending.

Seats pulled. Separation on the driver side seam. Still could be repaired I think.

Will the clock work in a ‘77?

Does anyone know if the clock would swap over to a ‘77 Cutlass Supreme (Vista Cruiser)?

My passenger entertainment center (analog clock) doesn’t move (does light up though). I’m all out of “its 5 o’clock somewhere jokes).

I don't believe it will, I think the shape & mounts are slightly different.
