Sounds like a win, win to me.Heyy.. So what..
You end up getting a part AND having some fun.....
So why don't you and Stan hop in the NYB and drive on up and meet us?Excellent... wish I was closer to you fella's. That sounds like a great time.
Um, the only reason I clicked on this thread was because curiosity had me wondering how a simple parts thread gets 24 posts.
Now I see its a chi-town party. I see a lot of city names I recognize as Zenith (TV) model names... which then reminds me... Do any of you guys know "TV Doug" from Downers Grove? He has 3 Mopars (two are C's, a '65 Newport and '71 Fury) as well as some other old-timey cars.
I do not know TV Doug, but Downers Grove is just south of me.Ill keep my eye for him.
And I fondly remember Zenith. My father worked at the Rauland plant in Melrose Park in the 70's.

(It's super hard to take a decent pic of a TV with a BlackBerry cheapo phone) but this is the second newest TV in my all-Zenith house (1978). Gets used every night to watch Hogan's Heros before bed. The newest is a '90, and that just runs all day playing shows about talking trains and dinosaurs that ride trains (for my daughter).
Anyway, Doug looks like Drew Carey before he got wierd and LA-skinny. His '65 is a cream-yellow 4dr and the '71 is a med-green coupe. He also has a green '71 Coronet sedan.

that's awesome!! I still have a Zenith big screen (one of their last gasps before being bought out) that is used for a backup at work and I have a VHS/DVD combo 19" stashed away in the basement.
The work is not a Japan-bashing diatribe, but a call for changes in Washington, and a return to free trade in our domestic and foreign commerce.
The more things change, the more they stay the same...
Yup! Good guy. He sold the 65 a few years back. Has a couple early 70's fusies now.... Do any of you guys know "TV Doug" from Downers Grove?

I'll speak with him over the weekend.An effort should be made to recruit him here.
