Need tons of parts for a '77 Cutlass Supreme Brougham 4-Door
Title says it all pretty much. Doing a frame-off restoration on a 1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham 4-door. Finding parts have been pretty difficult, can't really find anyone that has a 4-door. Here's a list of parts that I need, would like to purchase from within the US, I can pay shipping. I'm located in Mazomanie, WI 53560. The list below is sorted by urgency/most desired (top to bottom)
Grill
Front bumper mounts (FOUND)
Side Mirrors
Window ****
Dashboard
Back Portion of Rear Seats
This is a picture of the beauty I'm working on bringing back to life! (Don't worry, the rims are the first thing to go.)
Thanks for any help or useful tips!

I have a four door, but it's a 76. I might have the window *****. What do you mean by front bumper mounts? I have front bumper shocks that bolt into the frame, I think. I also have 1 side mirror. It's chrome, not the sport style.

Ah, yes they're front bumper shocks, I was blanking on the name this morning. And a chrome side mirror is preferred, is it LH or RH? One side mirror is better than none!

Sorry, forgot to add that in the post. I'm in Mazomanie, WI 53560. The closest junkyard to me has one 76/77 in rough shape. There's a place south about an hour that claims to have several, making a trip down there this weekend.
Saw you posted on FB too. Tried to answer your stuff there as well.
Many of the parts you seek are not 4 door specific, so you should be good there.
There are quite a few grille sets on EBay right now. Bumper shocks are all the same for all 74-77 A bodies. Not sure about 73, with the smaller front bumper. Not sure if there is a difference with the 2 door vs 4 door sport mirrors.
Back portion of the rear seats normally gets beat up pretty bad by sun. Mine have dry rotted and I have them temporarily covered until I can get them reupholstered.
You also mentioned you were looking for a package tray. There are vendors like Fusick and USA Parts Supply that have them for 2 doors. You may be able to cut one to fit your needs.
I'd definitely be interested in the mirror, and any other parts you have.
I've found a set of front bumper shocks/mounts that'll work. $75+shipping seems like a fair price to me. The one I have are bent and probably can't be repaired. I'm going to check this off the list.

Good luck bringing her back to life!
Finally I've found someone else that owns a 4-door! It seems like they're pretty much non-existent. I was trying to add mine to the registry, but I never got an activation link in my email. Anyway..
Thanks for the great input. I think for the package tray I'm going to buy some hardboard and cover it in carpet. The back portion of the seat is a solid base to reupholster. The foam is still intact, but the fabric itself is trashed. Right now I'm trying to find a good reupholstry kit for a 4-door.
Also-- When it comes to the dashboard I might be able to bring it back to life. There's no cracks in it, but it looks like someone literally bit a chunk off one of the corners. So I might try to fiberglass it or use expanding foam, and then redo the curve to match.

It may not be important, but I should point it out anyway. Those grilles are off a 76. They will definitely fit, but the 77 grilles are slightly different. See pic for differences...

I was wondering what happened to the 73-77 olds group, didn't know there was a new one.
Hey Damaged, I haven't checked part numbers but these are off my 77 Supreme Salon, I have found other anomalies because of the Salon package. When I get home this weekend I will check numbers for conformance. Thanks for letting me know
