I don't remember... I can't recall... I've got no memory of anything at all...

Heh. I tried to delete the thread but there wasn't an option I could find (even as the thread starter). Mod should probably just nuke it.

I wasn't sure if he wanted me to mention him publicly. I did pay for the service since he had to make a long trip, but again it was worth every penny given how much I've already put into the car.

(never mind)

Thanks to the skills of a forum member I was finally able to get the windshield installed. As I figured there were enough tricks involved I would never have been successful on my own, and I avoided as much risk as possible to a nearly pristine car. The original gasket was theoretically reusable...

The car was restored about 12 years ago so I hope that isn't an issue. I assume the reason they didn't replace the windshield was that replacements simply weren't available then. The reason definitely wasn't cost since they spent a fortune redoing chrome and paint and interior. (But they...

(Hopefully a wanted ad for a service instead of a physical good isn't against the rules here.) So... I have FINALLY acquired a great quality used windshield gasket for my '63 Chrysler 300 convertible thanks to a forum member. I have the replacement windshield as well. But finding an installer...

Thanks for the info again. There is another wrinkle though... I talked with my installer. Says the old windshield was "glued into the gasket" and that's why the old gasket has to be destroyed. The issue is that he is unwilling to use a gasket that came off of a parts car, due to age... simply...

I've put in a call to them, thanks.

OK then, $1000 bounty on this gasket in good condition (original gasket, none of the repros that allegedly were made for a short time and didn't really fit). I have absolutely no place to store an entire parts car. Polishing the glass won't work because it's just as pitted and scratched on the...

OK, I looked through some online parts manuals (thank god for jholst.net Chrysler 300 Resources Page)... appears the early 60s windshield gaskets are common through "like" chrysler models, that is 4-doors vs coupes/verts. Is your 61 gasket out of a coupe/vert?

I've also seen that written in one post, but I was then told over the phone by one of the well-known repop shops that this wasn't the case. Do your 63 vert parts cars have intact gaskets that could be removed or are their windshields already out? If the latter, is there a chance you could...

I already have the new glass from another vendor but I'll email him asking about the gasket. But I don't have high hopes as every company that seems to produce these has already told me to pound sand. The good news is I don't NEED to replace the windshield, it's not actually cracked but just...

Called everybody with no luck. Name your price.

I gave up... the new heater switch also leaks vacuum, and the Ram actuators I planned on using are also not available (despite being advertised as such on eBay). I also noticed the heater valve on my car had its family jewels lopped off and the internal bits welded to be fully open; the hot/cool...

After staring at more pictures of Dodge Ram actuator 04882286 I'm more confident they can be modified as I want... each of the 1963 actuators has a differently-shaped "arm" that can be cutoff and I hope JB-welded to the arm of 04882286. (If only I knew how to actually weld, sigh.) I ordered a...

So, I have a 1963 Chrysler 300. The heater switch and box all work except the three vacuum actuators on the box are junk, which explains why the PO had the incoming vacuum source disconnected (they leak). These are dual-port actuators, part 2277091. They don't seem reproduced, and the couple of...

Bumper acquired, thanks!

Not the grille, the chrome bumper that holds the front license plate and wraps around the front corners. Any condition as long as it's not mangled.

Thanks guys but I'm off the market. God told me an Imperial wasn't in the cards and I listened. (Got thrown out of one apparently fake dealership by an ******* salesman who wouldn't let me inspect a car for more than five minutes, and got accused of being a scammer by some paranoid guy selling...
