Maury Park e-mailed me back and says he has a clean polara gate for $350. No top molding though. Adjuster is supposed to come tomorrow so we'll see how it goes.

Thats the one I would go with. Get plenty of photos however from Murray also. Nice to an Ohio man may mean Swiss cheese to an Arizona boy. Murray may also have his years mistaken, so be certain its correct.
By the way, I would like you to look into getting those fenders shipped..........08083

I haven't got a response back from him yet, but I e-mailed Murray and asked if he had a large interior panel. If he has it I will probably pick it up in person. If he doesn’t send you good photos of the tail gate I could look at it in person and give you my opinion and take some photos.
I hate to mention this now before I make any real plans to go (my last trip fell through), but just in case I do go I thought I would give you a heads up.

I'm jealous you guys live that close....
No word back from Murray. This weekend looking more unlikely.

I've only ever dealt with him on the phone. A positive experience.
I've been buying up every C body I can find and cutting them up for parts.If I come across a wagon that will work for you I'll let you know.As soon as I finish up another Charger project then I'll be out hitting swap meets,shows and auctions to get more cars and parts as well.

where are you located?
the winter swap meet at the Gibralter trade center in Mt. Clemens, MI is coming up on Jan 27th. This is a pretty big meet and I know its still a long shot but Bob, I'll keep my eyes open for your plastic wiper cam and if anybody else needs any smalls I can keep my eyes open for, just let me know.
Bob do you still have your old one? Wiper motor part, that is.
I might have to start trying that route. Do you call in the evenings? I have called during the day but I get a "young" female taking messages. I have never directly talked to him.

Murray works full time for the post office, and on the weekends/Evenings parts the cars out. The best times to reach him is after 8Pm-11pm he will call back that late also. His Wife answers the phone during the day. I have also had good results calling around 9am on Saturdays. Sometimes even with a phone call it takes several weeks to speak with him. I have bought tons of things from him over the years. All of them are as he described and for a reasonable price. I give him 2 Thumbs up. I wish I was local like you guys are. I would love to pick around his salvage yard. Jason

Has anybody actually "seen" Murray?
I haven't. I got a blower resistor and a switch from him. It took 2 months to get him on the phone.
Yes, Murray and I have known each other for probably 30 years and his wife Mindy too. And his Dad has a few 300 letter cars and a '70 T&C to die for. Last time I was down to his place was mid July to pickup a 276 open pig just after Carlisle(we sat and Bench Raced at Carlisle too)

I initially was going to ask WTF is a 276 open pig.
Then it dawned on me it is a 2.76 open rear end.

Murray did return my e-mail today. We seem to be on about a 3 day return message right now. He said he will have to check the yard this weekend for the items I'm looking for in the day light. He has always returned my e-mails and I have been pretty happy with his service, he sent me the wrong trim clips but made it right.
